Abstract: A method and machine-readable media are provided for estimating property values. An exemplary method includes obtaining a first estimate of a property from a first property valuation database, the first estimate exhibiting price tier effect bias. The method further includes deriving a price tier effect adjustment factor based on a price tier associated with the property and purchase transaction data. The method further includes adjusting the first estimate to reduce the price tier effect bias using price tier effect adjustment factor, thereby providing a second estimate having reduced price tier effect bias.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and a system for controlling an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus. The method comprises: dividing a Serial Clock Line (SCL) signal collected from an I2C bus of a master device into a plurality of paths of signals and extending the signals to I2C buses of slave devices, by a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD); judging a current state of data and determining a direction of a current Serial Data Line (SDA) signal, between the SDA signal collected from the I2C bus of the master device and the SDA signal collected from the I2C bus of the slave device. The system can reduce cost and design complexity of a single-board.

Abstract: An encapsulated material composition is presented, which contains a compound of Chemical Formula I and a compound of Chemical Formula II, and has high refractive index due to the cycloalkane structure in the compound of Chemical Formula I and the compound of Chemical Formula II. Therefore, when the encapsulated material composition is applied in the light emitting diode (LCD) encapsulated structure, the light extraction efficiency of the LED encapsulated structure is effectively enhanced.

Abstract: A 1-click method for executing an expedited payment package of paying multiple bills right away through Internet. A user logs into an online bill pay account in a server system from a client system, and receives a web document specifying all bills including a 1-click-pay button. The user prepares a payment package of multiple bills, including a plurality of the identifications of the receiver, bill details, schedule definitions, and delivery details. After selection of 1-click-pay button performed by the user, the client system sends the payment package and a request to execute. Server system collectively processes bill payments the same day or right away according to the payment package and its settings but overriding the previously defined schedule for individual bill.

Abstract: A portable lamp socket power plug adapter connectable to a standard light bulb socket with electrical outlet functions for AC or DC plugs; The AC or DC electrical plug sockets provide any standard shape for the connection of plug to supply electrical appliances. The electrical plug sockets may function as USB sockets in providing DC power supply.

Abstract: A method and system are provided removing systematic bias from property value predictions obtained using automated property valuation models. The systematic bias is removed by deriving monthly adjustment factors that are location-specific. The monthly adjustment factors are obtained by comparing newly obtained purchase transaction data to model-generated valuations of properties in a base valuation database. The newly obtained purchase transactions may be obtained from newly obtained data on recently completed purchase transactions and loan application data on future purchase transactions. The monthly adjustment factors are applied to the property valuations in the base valuation database to obtain adjusted property values having reduced bias and thus improved accuracy.

Abstract: Systems and methods for extracting data content items from a web page are provided. A template is created by labeling data content items of interest associated with a web page and generating a template Document Object Model (DOM) tree based on the labeled web page. DOM trees are also generated for additional web pages that contain data content items for which extraction may be desired. These DOM trees are compared to the template DOM tree to determine alignment there between. The aligned data content items may then be extracted from the additional web pages and indexed, as desired. Labeling the data content items of interest prior to generating a template DOM tree allows for the desired data content items to be specified and more accurately extracted from related and/or similarly structured web pages.
