  • Publication number: 20200126111
    Abstract: Methods and systems of predicting performance data for a piece of media content that is consumable by a user at a client device are provided. In one or more embodiments, the method collects raw input data, such as from a webcam, indicative of a user's response to the media content as the user watches the content. The data is processed to extract and obtain a series of head pose signals and facial expression signals, which is then input to a classification model. The model maps the performance data of the media content over time in response to the signals evaluated by the method to produce a prediction of the performance of the piece of media content.

  • Patent number: 9202226
    Abstract: A system and method for tracking patron events at a plurality of devices is provided. The plurality of devices include electronic gaming machines and non-gaming machines. Each game device has a value associated therewith. The system includes a plurality of player tracking devices (each associated with one of the electronic gaming machines) and a server. The player tracking devices identify patrons interacting with the system, track wagers made by the patrons on the electronic gaming machines and record wager data. The server receives the wager data and stores the wager data in a database and receives transaction data associated with a transaction associated with the patrons use of the non-gaming devices and stores the transaction data in the database, and establishes a player rating associated with each player as a function of the wager data and the transaction data.
