Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Increase text-similarity weight from the bid-focused range to 0.75–0.9 | TPDP assignment policy · TPDP | reviewer-reported expertise | Helped |
| Increase text-similarity weight to 0.9–1 | TPDP assignment policy · TPDP | reviewer-reported expertise | Mixed |
| Use randomized rather than deterministic assignment | TPDP assignment policy · TPDP | reviewer-reported expertise | No clear effect |
| Set text-similarity weight to 0.5 or lower rather than the on-policy value | AAAI assignment policy · AAAI | reviewer-reported expertise | Hurt |
| Increase positive-bid weight to at least the on-policy value | AAAI assignment policy · AAAI | reviewer-reported expertise | Helped |
| Increase q to 0.6 or higher, reducing assignment randomness | AAAI assignment policy · AAAI | reviewer-reported expertise | Helped |
| Optimize assignment to minimize rather than maximize total similarity | TPDP and AAAI assignment policies · TPDP and AAAI | reviewer-reported expertise | Hurt |
| Use monotonicity or Lipschitz constraints to bound unobserved review outcomes | Off-policy evaluation · TPDP and AAAI | bound informativeness | Helped |
