OneBid is a unified auto‑bidding foundation model that consolidates diverse cost‑per‑X (oCPX) advertising scenarios into a single framework. It builds on Decision Transformer by conditioning on two atomic signals—Return‑to‑Go for conversion value and Cost‑to‑Go for cost ratio—and incorporates value‑aware regularization. A sequence‑level Mixture‑of‑Experts architecture captures cross‑scenario knowledge while preserving low latency, and a Critic‑guided Relative Offline Policy optimization (CROP) aligns the backbone with scenario‑specific preferences without unsafe online exploration. In production at Kuaishou, OneBid achieved a 2.2% overall ADVV increase and up to 13.1% in the ROAS scenario.

UniPolicy is a unified objective‑specific policy framework for search advertising that jointly optimizes relevance, click propensity, and commercial value. It uses objective‑aware prefix tokens, sparse MoE‑LoRA routing, and residual FFNs to decouple parameters within a shared backbone, and constructs pairwise preferences from multi‑stage behavioral feedback to strengthen clicked candidates. In large‑scale offline tests and a 7‑day online A/B test, UniPolicy improves CTR by 0.71%, RPS by 1.58%, and advertising revenue by 1.32% while keeping serving latency stable.

The paper introduces Task Specialization Fine-Tuning (TSFT), an online framework that allocates a limited fine‑tuning budget across multiple task regions in Contextual Reinforcement Learning. TSFT predicts fine‑tuning performance with a simple parametric model and solves the budget allocation problem exactly using integer linear programming. Experiments on combinatorial optimization, continuous control, and LLM fine‑tuning show that TSFT outperforms baselines in task coverage and approaches oracle performance.
