  • Patent number: 10909366
    Abstract: A system accesses a plurality of ratio values for similar AOIs, each ratio value indicating a ratio between a count of device users at a similar AOI and a count of vehicles of the similar AOI. The similar AOIs are AOIs that have measurable characteristics within a range of similarity with those of the target AOI. The count of vehicles of the similar AOI is generated using aerial imagery received for the similar AOI. The count of device users at the similar AOI is extracted from third party data for the similar AOI. The system accesses a count of a number of reported device users at the target AOI, and generates an estimate of the vehicle count for the target AOI using the count of the number of reported device users at the target AOI and a combination of the plurality of ratio values for similar AOIs.

  • Patent number: 10873560
    Abstract: Mapping anonymous Internet entities to known accounts. In an embodiment, events, representing online activity and comprising IP addresses, are received from a plurality of sources. Subsets of the events are aggregated into mappings that associate the IP address, shared by the subset, with an account. Each mapping is associated with statistics regarding the events. A confidence value is calculated for each mapping based on the statistics, and a final subset of the mappings is selected based on the confidence values. Subsequently, when a request with an IP address is received, the final subset of mappings is searched for the requested IP address, and an indication of the account associated with the requested IP address is returned in response to the request.
