  • Patent number: 11847603
    Abstract: Techniques for a geofence generation feature are described herein. Geospatial vector data for a geographical area and seed points for delivery locations within the geographical area may be obtained. A plurality of polygons that represent the geographical area may be determined based on an algorithm that uses the seed points and the geospatial vector data. A boundary point for each polygon may be determined based on coordinates for the plurality of polygons where each boundary point corresponds to a single seed point. A geofence of a first size may be generated, for each polygon, based on the coordinates for the polygons, the seed point, and the boundary point. Historical scans of GPS data may be obtained from user devices during historical visits to the geographical area. The geofence may be modified to a second size or a different shape based on the historical scans of the GPS data.

  • Publication number: 20230103440
    Abstract: In general, embodiments of the present invention provide for ranking data objects using machine learning and scoring to configure a graphical interface. In this regard, a machine learning model is applied to data object attributes to generate data object relevance scores for the candidate data objects. Additionally, a respective personalization score for the candidate data objects is generated based at least in part on a compounded ratio and a geometric mean of the compounded ratio. The data object relevance scores for the candidate data objects are modified based at least in part on the respective personalization score for the candidate data objects to generate modified object relevance scores for the candidate data objects. The candidate data objects are then ranked based at least in part on the modified object relevance scores to generate a ranked data object set and to facilitate configuration of a graphical interface.

  • Publication number: 20230025641
    Abstract: Techniques for training a machine learning model to determine a predicted time distribution related to electronic communications are discussed herein. The machine learning model is trained based at least in part on time to open data indicative of respective time to open terms that begin at respective transmission times for electronic communications and end at respective electronic communication access event times. Additionally, based at least in part on the predicted time distribution determined by the machine learning model, respective access scores for an electronic communication being accessed via the user device at the respective times are determined to provide a new electronic communication for rendering via an electronic interface of a user device.

  • Patent number: 11442945
    Abstract: Techniques for integrating freshness and relevance within a programmatic relevance service are discussed herein. Some embodiments may include a relevance service system, including one or more batch processors and one or more online processors. The one or more batch processors may be configured to track message recipient behavior from electronic clickstream data, and generate models of functions that predict access probability for individual users. The one or more online processors may use the access probability calculated in batch to facilitate on demand deal ranking adjustments that account for freshness as informed by the predicted access probability for communications sent to the user.

  • Publication number: 20220086594
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program product are provided to filter and modify option data objects and weighted values associated with option data objects through the application of specific rule sets based on the relative density of option data objects within a particularized area. In some example implementations, option data objects and related parameters are parsed to identify locations associated with the option data object and a weighted value, such as a weighted value generated by a predictive model. Based at least in part on the location associated with the option data object, a determined location of a user of a mobile device, and location-specific distance criteria, the weighted value associated with the option data object may be modified to reflect distance-related option election probabilities.
