  • Patent number: 11934923
    Abstract: The quality of predictive model outputs is improved by improving input data in the cases where entities in the input data are associated with one or more classes, computed at least in part from one or more subsets of the input data. Class association function characteristic data is derived from information describing a class association function that generates input data from source data. The class association function characteristic data comprises inferences relating to operation of the class association function that are not derivable solely from the input data. The input data is transformed into improved input data using a constructed class-specific transformation function and the class association function characteristic data.

  • Patent number: 11210823
    Abstract: Values are attributed to components of a data analytics-driven system by representing the system as a computational graph. The computational graph embodies a function that takes one or more inputs and produces an output, and each component of the system is represented as a subgraph of the computational graph. A usage metric is calculated for each component of the system by determining whether the output of the function of the system is affected by the component. A utility metric is also calculated for each component of the system. Based on the calculated component usage metrics and utility metrics, respective value are allocated to the system components.

  • Patent number: 10572459
    Abstract: Flexible, high-accuracy data processing techniques and accompanying systems avoid criticality in intermediate computations through intelligent, low cost sanitization of data operations. A data processing operation including one or more plans is received, with each plan having a data operation described as a tree based-structure. The plans that are determined to create criticality on execution are sanitized by transforming the plan itself, ancestors, and/or children of the plan. Determining whether execution of a plan creates criticality is based on the determination of whether a set of criticality conditions includes data signals that are associated with the plan. After sanitization, the data processing operation can be fully executed without criticality arising in intermediate operations.

  • Patent number: 10007933
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods and supporting systems for programmatically inserting highly-relevant content (“inserted content” or “display items”) into existing electronic content (“native content”) such as websites and WAP-enabled domains. The addition of the content considers various attributes of the native content into which the inserted content is to be placed, the user viewing the content, the device on which the content is being placed, the structure of the content, metadata related to the content and/or the content domain, the inserted content itself, as well as many other attributes that may be specific to the instance, or, in some cases, may even be random. The insertion process also uses an insertion strategy to direct how, when and in what form the inserted content is placed into the native content.
