  • Publication number: 20230281664
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for serving advertisements based on partial queries. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request for advertisements that specifies a set of query suggestions. The query suggestions are ranked based, at least in part on a probability of each query suggestion being selected by a user that input the partial query. A proper subset of the query suggestions is selected and includes a highest ranked query suggestion based on the ranking and one or more query suggestions of the set of query suggestions that is at least one of a revision of the highest ranked query suggestion or refers to a same topic as the highest ranked query suggestion. One or more advertisements are identified for each query suggestion of the proper subset. Data specifying the identified advertisements are provided.

  • Patent number: 10334057
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for optimizing digital component transmission. A data structure stores session data for a user session. An encoder accesses the session data, encodes at least a portion of the online activities by representing different online activities with different symbols, and generates an encoded session string that includes multiple different symbols representing an order of occurrence of the different online activities. One or more servers classify the user session to a positive session classification or a negative session classification based on a classification score for the encoded session string, aggregates the classification of the user session with other classifications of other user sessions that have a same session string as the encoded session string, and adjusts distribution of digital components to client devices based on the aggregated classifications.

  • Patent number: 8780355
    Abstract: According to a first aspect the invention relates to a reconstruction process of a narrow-band signal acquired by an instrument producing irregular sampling, in which two series of samples are acquired at the same sampling period, the two series being offset relative to one another such that the sampling errors are identical or quasi identical over both series. According to a second aspect, the invention relates to an instrument configured to carry out the process according to the first aspect of the invention.
