  • Patent number: 12033101
    Abstract: Various examples are directed to determining an impact of a subunit on the value of a unit. A web-based analytics system receives unit value data via a user interface page provided to a supplier computing device by a web application, the unit value data including relationship data describing a relationship between a plurality of subunit values and a unit value. Based on relationship data, the system increases a value for a first subunit while holding values for the other subunits constant until the value of the unit increases to a unit value threshold and increases a value for a second subunit while holding values for the other subunits constant until the value of the unit increases to a unit value threshold. The system compares an increase in the value of the first subunit to increase the value of the unit to the unit value threshold with an increase in the value of the second subunit to increase the value of the unit to the unit value threshold.

  • Patent number: 11972442
    Abstract: Techniques and embodiments are described herein for detecting and mitigating fraudulent activity within user experience (UX) test applications. In some embodiments, a system applies a set of rules and/or machine learning (ML) models to each respondent of an online survey or UX test. Different ML models may be trained to learn domain-specific patterns indicative of fraudulent activity. The system may then select the ML models based on attributes of the UX test and/or respondent. The selected rules and/or ML models may generate a probabilistic score representing a likelihood that the respondent is currently engaging in or will engage in fraudulent activity with respect to a UX test. If the score exceeds a threshold, then the system may take action to mitigate the fraudulent activity, such as triggering the removal of the user from an accepted respondent pool, halting further engagement between the respondent and the UX test, and generating alerts.
