1. Recommendation exposure log dataframe
2. Compute category · brand entropy
3. Compute new-product · long-tail ratios
4. Per-category diversity score → auto-alert when below threshold
5. A/B comparison (diversity ↑ vs CTR ↑ tradeoff)

6. Output UI

  • Left: Per-category diversity-score bars
  • Center: New-product · long-tail exposure time series
  • Right: Exploration-purchase balance score
  • Bottom: Diversity ↑ A/B results

8. Demo Scenarios

  1. Per-category diversity score → "Summer tent" 0.31 (low — concentrated in 1-2 popular SKUs)
  2. Long-tail exposure ratio → 8% → 12% after diversity-corrected recommendation simulation
  3. A/B results → After diversity ↑: CTR -2%, GMV +6% (long-horizon efficiency ↑)
