Publication number: 20240139629Abstract: A method includes obtaining, based on a sequential graph-based model, gaming exposure information over time, where the gaming exposure information includes device-level preferences and household-level preferences. The method also includes combining one or more raw user behavior sessions into a gameplay session based on the obtained gaming exposure information. The method further includes providing a scoring metric to (i) check an extent of multi-matching in the obtained gaming exposure information and (ii) remove untrustworthy gaming exposures from the obtained gaming exposure information. In addition, the method includes generating, based on a feature engineering pipeline, one or more game segments running in a production environment, where the one or more game segments are identified for ancillary content based on inferences by a machine learning model trained using the gaming exposure information.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Anirudh Rao, Tomasz J.

Publication number: 20050002467Abstract: A data transmission method for a MIMO (Multiple-input Multiple-Output) system allowing multiple terminals to share channelization codes according to the channel states, by receiving channel information from terminals, allocating channelization codes for each transmit antenna based upon the received channel information, and transmitting data via each transmit antenna according to the allocated channelization codes. When there are many user terminals and if the number of channelization codes are limited, namely, when the total number of channel codes used to distinguish the terminals is less than the total number of terminals, channelization code sharing per transmit antenna among multiple terminals is performed, such that the throughput of data that can be sent by using each channelization code is increased.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 14, 2004Publication date: January 6, 2005Inventors: Dong-Youn Seo, Hong-Hoe Kim, Dong-Hee Shim, Hyoun-Hee Koo
