Patent number: 10600090Abstract: A system of content/query feature based data structure retrieval of predicted values is provided. The system can create a data structure having a plurality of rows corresponding to individual content/query features and a plurality of columns corresponding to individual predicted values. The processors can obtain a set of session features associated with a selection by a computing device in response to a query, and a set of content/query features associated with the selection of the content item. The processors can retrieve, from the data structure, a set of predicted values for each of the set of content/query features. The processors can generate, for each of the set of content/query features, a set of aggregate predicted values for each of the set of content/query features, and can include the set of aggregate predicted values in the data structure.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2016Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Daniel Wright, Daryl Pregibon, Diane Tang

Patent number: 8996497Abstract: User queries are received, with each query requesting a service from a server. Overlapping experiments are performed on at least a portion of the queries, with each experiment modifying one or more parameters associated with the queries or parameters associated with processing of the queries, and with the experiments organized into layers. Two or more experiments in different layers are allowed to be performed on the same query, and for any given layer, at most one experiment is allowed to be performed on the same query.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2011Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Ashish Agarwal, Eric Bauer Arbanovella, Diane Lambert, Ilia Mirkin, Michael M. Meyer, James A. Morrison, Daryl Pregibon, Susan Shannon, Diane L. Tang

Patent number: 8429012Abstract: A system obtains a first parameter (QP1) associated with a quality of an advertisement among multiple advertisements, where the first quality parameter (QP1) does not include a click through rate (CTR). The system functionally combines the first quality parameter (QP1) with at least one other parameter and uses the functional combination to filter, rank or promote the advertisement among the multiple advertisements.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2010Date of Patent: April 23, 2013Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Daniel Wright, Daryl Pregibon, Diane Tang

Patent number: 8065184Abstract: A system obtains ratings associated with a first set of advertisements hosted by one or more servers, where the ratings indicate a quality of the first set of advertisements. The system observes multiple different first user actions associated with user selection of advertisements of the first set of advertisements and derives a statistical model using the observed first user actions and the obtained ratings. The system further observes second user actions associated with user selection of a second advertisement hosted by the one or more servers and uses the statistical model and the second user actions to estimate a quality of the second advertisement.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2005Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Daniel Wright, Daryl Pregibon, Diane Tang

Publication number: 20110119126Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for online monitoring systems to determine offline advertising effectiveness. Information related to an advertisement for a product is received. The advertisement is presented through offline media. The information includes an advertising schedule. Communications related to the product that are received from the consumers in the market at the time the advertisement is presented, are detected. Data responsive to the detected communications are collected; the data represent a number of consumers in the market. A statistical correlation between the collected data and the advertising schedule is determined and provided to the advertiser as a report of the effectiveness of the advertising.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2009Publication date: May 19, 2011Applicant: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: John B. Park, Daryl Pregibon, Neha Singh, Leo Deegan

Publication number: 20070156887Abstract: A system provides one or more advertisements to users in response to search queries and logs user behavior associated with user selection of the one or more advertisements. The system also logs features associated with selected ones of the one or more advertisements, or associated with the search queries. The system further uses a statistical model and the logged user behavior to estimate quality scores associated with the selected advertisements and aggregates the estimated quality scores. The system predicts the quality of another advertisement using the aggregated quality scores.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2005Publication date: July 5, 2007Inventors: Daniel Wright, Daryl Pregibon, Diane Tang

Patent number: 6539391Abstract: Apparatus and method for summarizing an original large data set with a representative data set. The data elements in both the original data set and the representative data set have the same variables, but there are significantly fewer data elements in the representative data set. Each data element in the representative data set has an associated weight, representing the degree of compression. There are three steps for constructing the representative data set. First, the original data elements are partitioned into separate bins. Second, moments of the data elements partitioned in each bin are calculated. Finally, the representative data set is generated by finding data elements and associated weights having substantially the same moments as the original data set.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 1999Date of Patent: March 25, 2003Assignee: AT&T Corp.Inventors: William H.

Patent number: 6480844Abstract: A method provides for mining information from large volumes of data regarding transactions. The method provides for inferring a behavioral characteristic of a party to the transaction based on a large volume of data concerning a multitude of parties. That inferred characteristic may be dynamic in nature.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 1999Date of Patent: November 12, 2002Assignee: AT&T Corp.Inventors: Corinna Cortes, Daryl Pregibon

Patent number: 5574837Abstract: A cluster interface is generated which represents similarities of semantics between segments of code with respect to both the physical constructs of the code and the underlying operations performed by the code. The generated interface represents one or more code segments. Code segments to be analyzed are received by a computer system. Statistical internal information is extracted from each code segment. An external metric is generated which is based on the extracted statistical information. An interface display is created from the external metric which represents similarity relationships between the inputted code segments based on the extracted statistical information.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 1995Date of Patent: November 12, 1996Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Linda A. Clark, Thaddeus J. Kowalski, Daryl Pregibon
