  • Patent number: 10872084
    Abstract: A computer implemented method and a subpopulation size estimation and uncertainty quantification system (SE system) for estimating size of a target subpopulation size and quantifying size estimation uncertainty are provided. The SE system constructs an entity database including unique entities mapped to contacts retrieved from a contact database. The SE system receives a query defining target attributes of entities of the target subpopulation from a user device. The SE system estimates size of the target subpopulation delimited by the query by determining a first estimate of the size of the target subpopulation matching the target attributes by performing a mark and recapture estimation, and by determining a second estimate of the size of the target subpopulation matching the target attributes by performing a catch per unit effort estimation.

  • Patent number: 8825784
    Abstract: A method and system for managing mobile exchange of profile information between a requestor and a recipient. A mobile client is provided on a requestor's first mobile device. The requestor provides requestor profile to an information exchange server through the mobile client. The requestor requests for a connection with the recipient using the mobile client. The mobile client is provided on a recipient's second mobile device. The recipient provides recipient profile to the information exchange server through the mobile client. On acceptance of the request for connection by the recipient, the information exchange server transfers the recipient profile to the mobile client on the requestor's first mobile device and vice versa. The mobile client automatically updates the transferred recipient profile on the requestor's first mobile device based on changes made by the recipient to the recipient profile and vice versa.

  • Publication number: 20140066044
    Abstract: A method and system for crowdsourcing and managing contact and profile information of a user's contacts, and exchanging business and personal contact information through a mobile device, personal computer, or a web application. The system comprises a crowdsourcing intelligence module that provides the software, analysis, and algorithms for automatically populating and updating an individual's contact information in a user's address book based on contributed information and changes made to the individual's profile by a large community of users. The module also automatically populates and updates business profile, captures business's external social and business profiles, and analyzes demographic information which can then be transmitted to users.

  • Publication number: 20080172415
    Abstract: The system and method of matching candidates and employers provides a user interface that requires job candidates to enter profile data to a database. The system imposes on the candidate, skills data entry and ranking from predefined lists of technical skills and soft skills. A background check authorization option is provided. The system accepts employer open job profile data that includes job titles, technical skills, soft skills, special requirements, education, certification, security clearance requirements, keywords and background check requirements. Candidate skills and experience profile data are utilized by a matching engine that processes all candidate and open job profiles. Match scores are generated by a unique matching logic to identify candidates with the best fit for a particular job opening. Candidates can only view job openings for which they are selected as top candidates. Employers can only view profiles of candidates who have authorized them to do so.
