Hi Igor, could you please edit your comment so that the code is included into code blocks with correct indentation? It's hard to follow the code. Reference: https://docs.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/creating-and-highlighting-code-blocks

Hi, Lorenzo.

Really sorry about that. Now, it's already fixed.

Regards,

Igor.

Hi Igor, I thought about this. There isn't a very clean way to do it with Icarus. I think the solution requiring the least amount of work to implement would be to run two experiments per scenario: you use the first experiment as training to collect data and the second experiment for testing. To do so, I think all you'll need to do is:

• Implement a data collector to get the data you need in the training experiment (if the ones you have already are not enough)
• Implement a content placement strategy for the test experiment that reads the result of the offline optimization and places content accordingly

I am closing the issue for now. Feel free to reopen it if you still have further issues.
