Patent number: 10650403Abstract: Techniques for distributing online ads by targeting online ad requests using test data to predict performance. The techniques can target ad requests in automated online advertising systems in which ad requests are generated by an ad exchange server and bids are placed by marketer devices in real time. The techniques aggregate bid units and compare bid unit characteristics to select bid units to target in ways that address data sparsity, variance, and volume issues. Data sparsity issues are addressed by aggregating bid units to avoid using bid units having insufficient data. Data variance issues are addressed by computing stability metrics for bid units that enable discounting the effect of outliers. Data volume and processing efficiency issues are addressed by grouping similar bid units based on similar metrics (e.g., normalized ROI) and/or similar stability scores, and then ranking the bid units and selecting the top ranked bid units to target.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2016Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Deepak Pai, Anil Kamath

Patent number: 10410187Abstract: A data management system for managing services rendered within a network of one or more medical service entities and one or more insurance entities includes a provider interface, a payment interface, and a processing engine. The provider interface receives information about one or more medical services in a first format. The processing engine generates an invoice based on the information about the one or more medical services and determines that the invoice is to be paid in a plurality of installments. The payment interface receives each of the plurality of installments from one or more payment services. The provider interface further generates, in a second format, a transaction for each of the plurality of installments and sends said transactions to the one or more medical service entities. The provider interface then transmits information indicating completion of the installments to the one or more medical service entities in the second format.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2014Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: PatientPay, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Furr, Anil Kamath

Patent number: 9618042Abstract: A bearing assembly for rotatably supporting a shaft member having an outer ring, having a first bearing raceway, and an inner ring, having a second bearing raceway. The raceways are opposingly spaced relative to each other. The inner ring includes a plurality of tang members extending in a cantilevered configuration from at least one end of the inner ring having slots formed therebetween. Bearing members are positioned in a space between and in engagement with the first and second bearing raceways. An undercut groove extends circumferentially along an inner surface of the inner ring generally adjacent the plurality of tang members. The undercut groove is operable to increase an effective cantilever distance of the plurality of tang members. The assembly further includes a locking member engaging the plurality of tang members and exerting a compressing force upon the plurality of tang members to couple the inner ring to the shaft.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2013Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: Regal Beloit America, Inc.Inventors: Anil Kamath, Apaar Sharma

Publication number: 20150317670Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating a forward-looking, goal seeking marketing plan that links prior media purchase transactions to predicted future financial results for a brand, product market, or campaign. A computing device is configured to receive input data associated with one or more marketing elements, such as television ads, print ads, and online ads. From the input data, response factors corresponding to each marketing element can be calculated. These response factors can be used to generate a model upon which future marketing transactions can be planned in accordance with scenarios associated with a particular marketing campaign. A marketing plan can be generated from the model in which some or all marketing elements are ordered in a flighting schedule that provides optimum financial results for a selected scenario.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2014Publication date: November 5, 2015Applicant: ADOBE SYSTEMS INCORPORATEDInventors: David Cavander, Anil Kamath, Siddharth Shah, Kunal Jain

Publication number: 20150227964Abstract: An ensemble model is described that is usable to predict revenue metrics for one or more keywords. The ensemble model may be formed using both a historical model and a user behavior model. In one or more implementations, weights are assigned to the historical model and/or the user behavior model based on one or more criteria. Various processing techniques of the ensemble model may utilize the historical model and the user behavior model to predict revenue metrics for one or more keywords.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2014Publication date: August 13, 2015Applicant: Adobe Systems IncorporatedInventors: Zhenyu Yan, Praveen Krishnakumar, Abhishek Pani, Anil Kamath, Suman Basetty, Kunal Kumar Jain

Publication number: 20110071900Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and non-transitory, tangible computer-readable media associated with generating bids for multi-channel advertising environments, including in embodiments, generating a multi-channel advertising model. A multi-channel advertising model may be generated and used to estimate the effect of various advertisements and/or events that occur to an individual advertisee across various modeled advertising channels. An advertisee may be tracked across multiple channels, such as, for example, by using one or more cookies as the advertisee visits various web sites. Embodiments may calculate marginal contributions to a conversion event by various advertising events that have occurred along the sales funnel. Various revenue attributions may be generated as a function of a marginal contribution that an event had on the final conversion.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2010Publication date: March 24, 2011Applicant: Efficient FrontierInventors: Anil Kamath, Abhishek Pani
