Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for optimizing distribution of resources to data elements, comprising receiving a selection of a first objective and a second objective, the first objective and second objective comprising goals associated with distribution of a plurality of data elements; receiving an indication that the first objective has a higher priority than the second objective; receiving a first goal metric associated with the first objective and a second goal metric associated with the second objective; determining a first forecasted metric based on the first goal metric associated with the first objective; determining a second forecasted metric based on the second goal metric associated with the second objective; and allocating resources for the distribution of a plurality of data elements based on the first goal metric, the second goal metric, the first forecasted metric, the second forecasted metric, and the indication that the first objective has a higher priority than the second objective.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for optimizing data element usage according to user-defined objectives, comprising receiving a plurality of user-defined objectives associated with a group of data elements; receiving one or more constraints associated with the group of data elements, wherein at least one of the constraints comprises resources apportionable to each data element in the group of data elements; apportioning at least a portion of the resources to each data element in the group of data elements in a manner that meets the one or more constraints; receiving metrics associated with the performance of the group of data elements in meeting the plurality of user-defined objectives; determining an effectiveness of each data element in the group of data elements for meeting the plurality of user-defined objectives; and automatically revising the at least a portion of resources associated with each data element in the group of data elements.

Abstract: Television is the largest advertising category in the United States with over 65 billion spent by advertisers per year. A variety of different targeting algorithms are compared, ranging from the traditional age-gender targeting methods employed based on Nielsen ratings, to new approaches that attempt to target high probability buyers using Set Top Box data. The performance of these different algorithms on a real television campaign is shown, and the advantages and limitations of each method are discussed. In contrast to other theoretical work, all methods presented herein are compatible with targeting the existing 115 million Television households in the United States and are implementable on current television delivery systems.

Abstract: Described herein is a system and method of ad targeting that automatically matches advertisements to media based on the demographic signatures of each. The method and system include calculating a match score between historical buyer demographics and media demographics. Media which is similar to the demographic of the product buyers is targeted for advertising.
