Patent number: 9460449Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for creating experiment content distribution campaigns (“experiment campaign”) and allocating content in accordance with the experiment campaign. In one aspect, a control campaign or an experiment campaign are selected as an available campaign for providing content in response to receiving a content request. The selection can be a probability constrained selection where the probability with which the experiment campaign is selected is specified as a portion of a total number of requests received during an experiment period for which the experiment campaign is available to provide content. Content is provided in response to the request, where the provided content being content corresponding to the selected campaign.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2013Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Adam I.

Patent number: 7249312Abstract: The present invention provides for a system and method of assigning attribute scores, including those for abstract and diverse concepts such as sentiment (e.g., happiness, anger, sadness) to documents containing unstructured content (natural language content). Such content may include, but is not limited to, Web pages, e-mails, word processing documents, computer logs, chat logs, audio files, graphical images, text files, books, magazines, articles, etc. The attributes that are scored are specialized views of the unstructured content. Accordingly, attribute scoring denotes the processes of assigning one or more new measures to a document containing unstructured content. The attribute score or measure indicates the degree of the attributes found within the document.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2002Date of Patent: July 24, 2007Assignee: Intelligent ResultsInventors: Robert Joseph Jasper, Michael M.

Patent number: 4207559Abstract: An alarm system in which local transmitters emit substantially pure acoustic signals for at least a predetermined minimum interval. The receiver includes a microphone and amplifier for transducing the acoustic signals into electrical signals. These electrical signals pass through two bandpass stages, the second being a phase locked loop circuit. An RC timing network is connected to the second bandpass circuit. After about 7500 cycles of the electrical signal have been received an "alarm received" signal occurs. The "alarm received" signal is applied to the triggering input of a free-running pulse generator which supplies pulse trains to a counter and is itself halted when the counter reaches a first intermediate state. A second "alarm received" signal is required to restart the free-running pulse generator and thus advance the counter beyond said first intermediate state.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 1977Date of Patent: June 10, 1980Inventor: Michael M.
