  • Patent number: 11961116
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for determining user exposures to content, such as content presented by physical objects (e.g., advertisements on billboards). The systems and methods may determine a probability (an “exposure probability”) that a user has viewed or consumed content, information, or other visual media presented by a physical object, such as a billboard, vehicle, sign, or other structure, and provide the determined probability to various attribution systems, such as systems that attribute user engagements (e.g., store visits, app downloads, website visits, product purchases, and so on) to earlier content exposures.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 26, 2020
    Date of Patent: April 16, 2024
    Assignee: FOURSQUARE LABS, INC.
    Inventors: Elliott Waldron, David Shim, Jack Chua
  • Publication number: 20210334627
    Abstract: Methods and systems for predicting are disclosed. Records for transactions can be stored, each record comprising an indication identifying items involved in a transaction and an indication of a time elapsed between the transaction and a previous transaction. The records for transactions can be analyzed to produce a probability that the items will be involved in a next transaction.

  • Patent number: 11100387
    Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting are described herein. A record for each of a plurality of events associated with user transactions can be stored. A sequential plurality of the events can be analyzed using a unidirectional long short term memory (LSTM) and first and second dense neural network layers configured to receive output from the LSTM network.

  • Publication number: 20180293497
    Abstract: A processor circuit may perform processing associated with storing in a memory a record for each of a plurality of transactions, each record comprising an indication identifying at least one item, of a set of items, involved in the transaction and an indication of a time elapsed between the transaction and a previous transaction. The processor circuit may perform processing associated with analyzing a sequential plurality of the transactions using at least a long short term memory (LSTM) network to produce a probability that the at least one item will be involved in a next transaction for each at least one item, and a time estimate until the next transaction occurs. The processor circuit may perform processing associated with storing each probability and the time estimate in the memory as a prediction.

  • Patent number: 10002322
    Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting transactions. A record is stored for each of a plurality of transactions, each record comprising an indication identifying each item from a set of items involved in the transaction and an indication of a time elapsed between the transaction and a previous transaction. A sequential plurality of the transactions is analyzed using a unidirectional long short term memory (LSTM) network to produce a probability that each item from the set of items will be involved in a next transaction, and a time estimate value for a future time when the next transaction will occur. The probability for each item and the time estimate value is stored in the memory as a prediction.
