  • Publication number: 20230289662
    Abstract: Shaded bid values may be determined and/or submitted to one or more auction modules for participation in auctions. Auction information including at least one of impression indications associated with the auctions, sets of features associated with the auctions, the shaded bid values associated with the auctions, etc. may be stored in a database. A machine learning model may be trained using the auction information to generate a first machine learning model with feature parameters associated with features. A bid request, indicative of a second set of features, may be received. The first machine learning model may be used to determine win probabilities and/or expected bid surpluses associated with multiple shaded bid values based upon one or more feature parameters, of the feature parameters, associated with the second set of features. A shaded bid value for submission may be determined based upon the win probabilities and/or the expected bid surpluses.

  • Patent number: 11634654
    Abstract: An olefin-carboxylic acid copolymer, containing at least one free carboxylic acid side group, or a nitrogen compound quaternized with epoxide in the presence of an olefin-carboxylic acid copolymer, containing at least one free carboxylic acid side group, can be used as a fuel additive or lubricant additive. Processes can be used for preparing additives of this kind and fuels and lubricants additized therewith, such as a detergent additive. These additives, fuels, and lubricants can be used for reduction or prevention of deposits in injection systems of direct injection diesel engines, especially in common rail injection systems; for reduction of fuel consumption of direct injection diesel engines, especially of diesel engines with common rail injection systems; and for minimization of power loss in direct injection diesel engines, especially in diesel engines with common rail injection systems. The additives can also be used for gasoline fuels, especially for operation of DISI engines.

  • Patent number: 11566196
    Abstract: A method minimizes power loss in a direct injection diesel engine by adding a copolymer to a diesel fuel composition. The copolymer contains, in a copolymerized form, (A) maleic anhydride, (B) an ?-olefin having from 12 to 30 carbon atoms, (C) optionally an additional aliphatic or cycloaliphatic olefin which has at least 4 carbon atoms and is different from monomer (B), and (D) optionally an additional copolymerizable monomer other than monomers (A), (B) and (C). Monomer (D) can be a vinyl ester, a vinyl ether, a (meth)acrylic ester of an alcohol having at least 5 carbon atoms, an allyl alcohol or an ester thereof, a N-vinyl compound, an ethylenically unsaturated aromatic, an ?,?-ethylenically unsaturated nitrile, a (meth)acrylamide, or an allylamine. Anhydride functionalities present in the copolymer are partly reacted with at least one compound (E) comprising an alcohol group and/or an amino group, and the anhydride functionalities present are hydrolyzed.

  • Publication number: 20230012700
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for optimizing electronic content delivery for non-measurable users includes receiving a feature vector for each electronic content impression opportunity, receiving a feature vector for each delivered item of electronic content for measurable users, receiving an in-target indication for each delivered item of electronic content for measurable users, estimating a probability that an electronic content impression opportunity with a specified feature vector will meet targeting requirements based on the received feature vectors and the received in-target indications, receiving an in-target threshold value, generating an in-target rate control signal based on a number of total delivered items of electronic content for measurable users and a number of in-target delivered items of electronic content for measurable users, determining whether the estimated probability is greater than the in-target rate control signal, and generating conditions for delivering a new item of electronic cont

  • Publication number: 20220414493
    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that provides mechanisms for predicting user actions of provided digital content based on an aggregation of user data. Conventional user tracking, and action prediction and recommendation systems have a lifespan that is ending in the short term due to new privacy laws. The disclosed framework enables personalized recommendations to be formulated for specific users based on an imputation from user data aggregated from a plurality of users. While anonymity is maintained, recommendations for predicted actions can be provided to the users and/or the providers of the content. The disclosed framework can scale the aggregated user data using a Naïve Bayes classifier, from which a logistic regression modeling can be performed to determine the predicted recommendation.
