Publication number: 20180025379Abstract: An online system determines a predicted performance of presenting a content item based on factors including a context in which the content item is to be presented. The context in which the content item is to be presented identifies other content presented in conjunction with the content item, content presented prior to presenting the content item, or actions performed prior to, after, or during presentation of the content item. Based on prior actions by users presented with content items in different contexts, the online system determines a quality score for each context. Using the quality score for the context in which the content item is to be presented and other factors, the online system determines the predicted performance of presenting the content item. The online system may modify determination of the predicted performance as the online system receives information describing results of presenting the content item.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2016Publication date: January 25, 2018Inventors: Philip Adam Hewinson, Adam Stevens, Ben Parsons, Anala Joelle Prabhu, Maya Cahier, Sebastian Michael Anthony Totte

Publication number: 20170116534Abstract: A process for recommending choices to a user uses a first model representing the user's subconscious and a second model representing the user's consciousness. The process comprises receiving data and performing, using the second model, a simulation by modeling the user and a third party to derive a simulation result that determines how the user would react to a situation based at least in part on the received data. Using the first model and the simulation, a first set of recommendation choices based at least in part on the received data is derived, and a set of recommendation choices for presentation based on the first set of recommendation choices is determined and presented to the user. As the user is making a selection, the user is monitored for conscious decisions and subconscious reactions, which are used to update the first model and the second model.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2017Publication date: April 27, 2017Inventors: Steven Keith Rogers, Adam Steven Rogers

Patent number: 9547829Abstract: A method for recommending choices to a user comprises receiving data. A first set of recommendation choices based on the data is derived using a first model that models a user's subconscious reactions (i.e., intuition) to the data, and a second set of recommendation choices based on the data is derived using a second model that models the user's consciousness. The first and second sets of recommendation choices are blended using a blending function based on characteristics of a domain of the data to create a third set of recommendation choices that are arranged in an order, which is presented to the user. A conscious decision of the user and subconscious reactions of the user are monitored, and data representing the subconscious reactions of the user and data representing the conscious decisions of the user are appended to a first and second memory space, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2014Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: QUALE LLCInventors: Steven Keith Rogers, Adam Steven Rogers

Patent number: 8889879Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to bimetallic substituted triazole compounds and methods to prepare the compounds. The compounds include at least one 1,2,3-triazole that is substituted by two metal ions at the 1 and 4 or 5 positions of the triazole ring. An iClick reaction between a metal acetylide and a metal azide results in the bimetallic substituted triazole ring. Depending on the metal acetylide and the metal azide used, monomeric bimetallic substituted triazole compounds, oligomeric bimetallic triazole compounds, or polymeric bimetallic triazole compounds are formed. Polymeric bimetallic triazole compounds can be linear, branched, ladder, two-dimensional network, or three-dimensional networks.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2013Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: University of Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: Adam Steven Veige, Trevor Del Castillo, Leslie Justin Murray, Xi Yang, Andrew R.
