Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to identifying a source of bias in a sample set and using statistical techniques to overcome the bias, thereby producing extrapolated data that accurately represents a population including the sample set. The method according to one embodiment comprises identifying a plurality of attributes corresponding to an entity, generating a plurality of clusters from the plurality of attributes, the plurality of clusters including varying numbers of the plurality of attributes, and performing measurements on each of the plurality of clusters to generate measurement data values for each of the plurality of clusters. A cluster with a greatest measurement data value is selected.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods and computer program products for assessing advertiser response based upon change in click traffic and value. One embodiment of a method for assessing advertiser response includes determining one or more keyword markets impacted by a traffic quality action, setting a baseline cost per acquisition for the one or more keyword markets impacted by the traffic quality action, determining one or more advertising metrics for the one or more keyword markets impacted by the traffic quality action having a certain network market value, fitting the one or more advertising metrics into a probabilistic model and determining the probability of reaction of the one or more keyword markets to changes in the one or more advertising metrics. The present invention provides systematic model to assess advertiser response that addresses all of the limitations of today's advertiser response assessment.
