Abstract:Guaranteed display advertising is crucial for platform monetization, yet existing methods often operate under a single-slot assumption, limiting their ability to optimize allocation across multi-slot page views. In this paper, we propose a novel joint optimization framework for multi-slot GD allocation, addressing key challenges such as slot-level redundancy, contract imbalance, and exposure concentration. Our approach formulates the allocation as an offline bipartite matching problem with a contract roulette mechanism for slot exclusivity and Page View constraints for impression control, and incorporates a scalable allocation optimization algorithm for efficient large-scale deployment. Extensive online tests on the Meituan advertising platform demonstrate that our method significantly improves merchant ROI, platform revenue efficiency, and contract fulfillment robustness. Specifically, online A/B tests show a 28.99% increase in Average Revenue Per User under 70% traffic, and DID analysis further indicates improved contract stability, demonstrating the strong applicability and effectiveness of our framework in real-world advertising deployments.
