  • Patent number: 12333566
    Abstract: A system and method provides for the use of a proprietary platform to predict impressions and to predict and design ad campaigns. Specifically, a proprietary programmatic advertisement platform correlates television programming asset sources with actual viewing behavior of broadcasts associated with the television programming assets and ad content associated with the ad campaign. The correlation produces a predicted performance value used to generate an ad campaign. For instance, the invention enables television programming asset sources and viewership information providers to communicate with the programmatic advertisement platform in a way that adds value to or otherwise facilitates the valuation of the television programming asset sources in context of the particular ad.

  • Patent number: 12271941
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and property analysis server devices are disclosed that generate a feature dataset including property and metric data for properties includes an address and an actual lease value. A machine learning model (MLM) trained on the feature dataset is selected from different types of MLMs. A determination is made that the selected MLM exceeds an accuracy threshold based on a cross-validation using predicted lease values. The property data is stored in a lease benchmarking database with the addresses replaced in with corresponding geographic coordinates and geohash values. The properties are associated in the lease benchmarking database with the predicted lease values. One of the predicted lease values is returned in response to a received lease pricing request that includes an address. The returned predicted lease value is identified in the lease benchmarking database based on a geographic proximity of the address to one of the properties.
