Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a set of classifiers. A term is identified within a document and a pre-defined threshold distance is determined. A plurality of additional terms in the document are identified, the additional terms being located within the pre-defined threshold distance of the time. A distance between the term and an additional term of the plurality of additional terms is calculated. A corresponding weight for the calculated distance is determined using a proximity weighting scheme. A score for the additional term is calculated using the calculated distance and the corresponding weight. A colocation matrix is generated and a classifier determined using the colocation matrix.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of determining actions outside of a norm is provided. The method comprises: generating an actor state vector and a peer group state vector, wherein the actor state vector identifies a characteristic for an actor in each of a plurality of categories and the peer group state vector identifies a characteristic for a peer group in each of the plurality of categories, transforming the actor state vector into a first sampled wave series representation using a first wave series transformation, transforming the population state vector into a second sampled wave series representation using a second wave series transformation, and filtering the first sampled wave series representation and the second sampled wave series representation to identify a deviation of the first wave series representation from the second wave series representation in a phase or a magnitude.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a set of classifiers. A location is determined for each instance of a topic term in a collection of documents. One or more topic term phrases are identified, and one or more sentiment terms within each topic term phrase. Candidate classifiers are identified by parsing words in the one or more topic term phrases, and a colocation matrix is generated. A seed row of the colocation associated with a particular attribute is identified, and distance metrics are determined by comparing each row of the colocation matrix to the seed row. A set of classifiers are generated for the particular attribute, where classifiers in the set of classifiers are selected using the distance metrics.

Abstract: In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for optimizing distribution of advertisement information. In one example, call tracking data may be generated from a plurality of telephone calls made to a business entity, where the call tracking data includes geographical information to identify locations from which the plurality of telephone calls originated. A call distribution may be determined from the call tracking data, where the call distribution groups the call tracking data based at least in part on distances between the business entity and the locations from which the plurality of telephone calls originated.
