  • Patent number: 11770574
    Abstract: Conventional television audience measurements are made with diaries or by imaging the area in front of a television and trying to identify the people in the images watching television. Unfortunately, diaries are only accurate if the audience members record entries in them, and image-based techniques are intrusive. The present techniques address these problems by using a viewer's wearable device to measure a viewer's proximity to a television. The wearable device emits or receives low-power beacon signals; measurements of the signal strength are used to calculate the viewer's distance to the television. If the viewer is close enough to the television and the television is on, the viewer may be engaged with the content on the television. This system is simple, non-intrusive, and can used to measure engagement with each television in a multi-television household.

  • Publication number: 20230297093
    Abstract: A variable power generation asset may be subject to ramp events, which are large variations in power generated by the variable power generation asset within a short period of time. A variable power generation forecast system may receive or generate benchmark power forecasts and generated power measurements. Ramp predictors are based on the benchmark power forecasts and the generated power measurements. The variable power generation forecast system utilizes a feedback error correction model that predicts forecast errors for the benchmark power forecasts at various look-ahead times. The variable power generation forecast system applies sets of decision trees to the ramp predictors and last known forecast errors of the benchmark power forecasts to obtain the predicted forecast errors. The variable power generation forecast systems uses the predicted forecast errors and the benchmark power forecasts to generate more accurate power forecasts at the various look-ahead times.

  • Patent number: 11755625
    Abstract: Aggregation of noisy datasets into a master firmographic database. In an embodiment, firmographic records are received from a plurality of sources, and normalized into a common schema. One or more firmographic records may be cleaned by replacing a value of one or more fields in those firmographic record(s) with a value of those field(s) in another firmographic record. The firmographic records may then be clustered, and each of the clusters may be collapsed into a single conflated firmographic record based on a voting process. A master identifier may be generated for each conflated firmographic record, and the conflated firmographic records may be merged into a master firmographic database that is indexed by master identifiers.
