  • Patent number: 9460149
    Abstract: In various embodiments, methods and systems for dynamic validation of selectable data are provided. This may be accomplished by referencing search engine session data of a user. The search engine session data includes a plurality of search queries each having an entered-attribute and a resolved-attribute. A variation between the entered-attribute and the resolved-attribute, for each of the plurality of search queries, is determined based on analyzing the entered-attribute and the resolved-attribute. The entered-attribute is an input of the user and the resolved-attribute is a resolved-input for executing the search query. An input-precision score is generated for the user based on the variation between the entered-attribute and the resolved-attribute, for each of the plurality of search queries.

  • Publication number: 20140122232
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention dynamically generate customized online advertisements. A dynamic advertisement may take the form of a paid search result. The advertisement is dynamic in the sense that all of or portions of the advertisement are generated using content from a web page operated by an entity associated with the advertisement. The web page used to generate the dynamic ad may be the entity's most responsive web page within normal search results. Embodiments of the invention use content from the most responsive web page to generate one or more dynamic ad features.
