Abstract: A computer-implemented method for optimizing electronic content delivery for non-measurable users includes receiving a feature vector for each electronic content impression opportunity, receiving a feature vector for each delivered item of electronic content for measurable users, receiving an in-target indication for each delivered item of electronic content for measurable users, estimating a probability that an electronic content impression opportunity with a specified feature vector will meet targeting requirements based on the received feature vectors and the received in-target indications, receiving an in-target threshold value, generating an in-target rate control signal based on a number of total delivered items of electronic content for measurable users and a number of in-target delivered items of electronic content for measurable users, determining whether the estimated probability is greater than the in-target rate control signal, and generating conditions for delivering a new item of electronic cont

Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that provides mechanisms for predicting user actions of provided digital content based on an aggregation of user data. Conventional user tracking, and action prediction and recommendation systems have a lifespan that is ending in the short term due to new privacy laws. The disclosed framework enables personalized recommendations to be formulated for specific users based on an imputation from user data aggregated from a plurality of users. While anonymity is maintained, recommendations for predicted actions can be provided to the users and/or the providers of the content. The disclosed framework can scale the aggregated user data using a Naïve Bayes classifier, from which a logistic regression modeling can be performed to determine the predicted recommendation.

Abstract: In an aspect, fantasy sports data is analyzed to generate and/or manage the delivery of and user experience of fantasy sports games and contests, including timing and payout structure(s) for short-term fantasy contests, such as daily, weekly, etc. fantasy sports contests, that motivate and appeal to contestants and is/are reasonably structured and concisely represented. In yet another aspect, a daily fantasy contest system is provided to automatically adjust to user demand without overshooting profitable levels and offer a variety of different contests, as well as offer contests with guaranteed and non-guaranteed payouts.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content generating, searching, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods provide systems and methods for automatic fantasy sports data analysis, including analysis of data to equalize player attractiveness in contestant composition of a fantasy sports team.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods generate a more accurate search advertising auction that considers heterogeneous attributes of advertisements for inclusions into an available advertisement space. Each advertisement considered for inclusion into the available advertisement space may be further analyzed to generate a truthful estimated price for reference during an online bidding for the advertisement space.

Abstract: An optimization problem models the dynamic placement of applications on servers under two types of simultaneous resource requirements, those that are dependent on the loads placed on the applications and those that are independent. The demand (load) for applications changes over time and the goal is to satisfy all the demand while changing the solution (assignment of applications to servers) as little as possible.

Abstract: A system and method that provides an automated solution to obtaining quality scheduling for users of computing resources. The system, implemented in an enterprise software test center, collects information from test-shop personnel about test machine features and availability, test jobs, and tester preferences and constraints. The system reformulates this testing information as a system of constraints. An optimizing scheduling engine computes efficient schedules whereby all the jobs are feasibly scheduled while satisfying the users' time preferences to the greatest extent possible. The method and system achieves fairness: if all preferences can not be meet, it is attempted to evenly distribute violations of preferences across the users. The test scheduling is generated according to a first application of a greedy algorithm that finds an initial feasible assignment of jobs. The second is a local search algorithm that improves the initial greedy solution.
