The exact definition varies by context; there is no single formal standard, and several communities use it to describe either a statistical significance threshold or a business decision point for targeting.
In uplift modeling, lift measures the increase in response rate due to a treatment relative to a
Determining liftcritical often involves statistical testing and resampling. Common methods include bootstrap confidence intervals for lift,
Criticism of the concept centers on variability of lift estimates, dependence on baseline rates, and the risk
