For better production of effective online advertising, predicting its effectiveness in advance is of prime importance. Since the images of display advertisements distributed on the internet have various aspect ratios, the effectiveness of the advertising images can be more accurately predicted by taking the aspect ratio of the images into account. We propose a Vision Transformer model that can handle images of arbitrary aspect ratios using relative position bias. We apply it to the task of click through rate prediction using real advertising delivery data, and confirm its superiority over baseline models that resize images to a fixed aspect ratio.
