Publication number: 20230017451Abstract: Content can be delivered to devices via one or more networks based on clusters of attributes in some examples. As one particular example, a server can determine a first set of attributes corresponding to a cookie associated with an entity and determine a second set of attributes corresponding to a mobile advertiser identifier (MAID) associated with the entity. The server can generate a cluster of attributes for the entity based on the first set of attributes and the second set of attributes. The system can then receive audience definition criteria defining a target audience for content and determine whether the cluster of attributes satisfies the audience definition criteria. If the cluster of attributes satisfies the audience definition criteria, the server can designate the cookie and the MAID as belonging to the target audience to enable the content to be delivered to the entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2022Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Omar Abdala, Pierre-Marc Diennet, Andrew Conant, John Stuckey

Patent number: 9686276Abstract: The determination of a unique user is discussed in response to receiving a dataset comprising multiple user identifiers (IDs). In some cases the user IDs may be of a different type. User IDs may be compared directly to determine whether they correspond to a unique user. Network transactions and attributes associated with those network transactions may be compared to determine a probability of whether two user IDs correspond to a unique user. Network transactions and attributes associated with those network transactions may also be compared to determine that two user IDs do not correspond to a unique user.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2013Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: AdMobius, Inc.Inventors: Dan Grigorovici, Omar Abdala, Hao Duong

Patent number: 8996402Abstract: Systems and methods for planning and booking advertising campaigns are provided. In operation, a booking engine generates a collection of proposed campaigns in response to a campaign request, where the each of the proposed campaigns corresponds to a scenario of atom availability. Such scenarios can account for possible or anticipated changes in the number and cost of atoms or any other changes of interest to the advertiser. The availability for the atoms in the campaign request can be projected using the past history and the known future unavailability of the atoms and is further modified to account for the variation in atom availability associated with each scenario. Thereafter, the booking engine can present the results for each scenario to the advertiser and allow him to select a campaign.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2010Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Omar Abdala, Prasenjit Mukherjee

Patent number: 8990103Abstract: Systems and methods for managing electronic content from multiple content providers in a dynamic environment are provided. In operation, an advertiser can plan and book an electronic advertisement campaign by providing a campaign request specifying a requested inventory slot of atoms in an inventory space and other associated data. Thereafter, a proposed campaign can be generated based on an estimated availability of the atoms and any performance criteria specified by the advertiser. Once the proposed campaign is accepted and booked, the proposed campaign can be managed along with other active campaigns. These active campaigns can be managed based on a relative priority of the campaigns and an estimated availability for the atoms in the inventory space.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2010Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Omar Abdala, Hao Duong

Patent number: 8983978Abstract: Invitational content targeted to a particular behavior can be served to the user when the user is likely to reproduce a desired behavior. The user is classified into one or more spatial-temporal segments based on an analysis of the user's characteristics and the user's past behavior. When a request is made for an item of invitational content, a spatial-temporal segment is selected based on a substantial likelihood that the current context will lead to a repeat of the representative past behavior. An item of invitational content associated with the selected segment is then served to the user.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2010Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Omar Abdala

Patent number: 8898217Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for selecting content based on user interactions with content previously presented to a user but failing to generate a conversion. In operation, a content delivery system delivers a content package to a user terminal, where the content package includes a content designed to elicit a pre-defined response, such as a conversion. The user terminal then presents the content to a user and generates a journal of events occurring in response to the content package. The journal is then used to determine the proximity of the events in the journal to the pre-defined response. If the degree of proximity to the desired response is high, the user is likely prepared to complete the conversion and therefore a same or similar content can be selected for the user terminal. Otherwise, new content can be delivered to the user terminal.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2010Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Dan Marius Grigorovici, Omar Abdala

Publication number: 20140330643Abstract: Relationships between a plurality of mobile devices are automatically determined. For each mobile device in the plurality of mobile devices, characteristics of a user of the mobile device are determined. Based on the characteristics of the users of the mobile devices, a first role of a first user of a first mobile device is determined. Based on the characteristics of the users of the mobile devices, a second role of a second user of a second mobile device is determined. Based on the first role and the second role, a relationship between the first user and the second user is determined. A determination is made that a relationship between the first mobile device and the second mobile device is equal to the relationship between the first user and the second user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2013Publication date: November 6, 2014Applicant: AdMobius, Inc.Inventors: Dan Grigorovici, Omar Abdala, Hao Duong, Melissa Stein

Patent number: 8812494Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for selecting contexts for new invitational content and invitational content for new contexts. In particular, a performance history of delivered invitational content in known contexts is combined with similarity measures for the delivered invitational content, with respect to a new invitational content, to generate a list of potential contexts for the new invitational content. Similarly, a performance history of in known contexts with delivered invitational content can combined with similarity measures for known contexts, with respect to a new context, to generate a list of potential content for the new context. Further, a combination of these methods can be used to pair new invitational content with new contexts.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2013Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadershan, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Ravikiran Chittari, Prasenjit Mukherjee, Omar Abdala

Patent number: 8640032Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for delivering invitational content based on a prediction of the intent of a user. In particular, partial action sequences are identified in a journal of events associated with the user. Thereafter, the partial sequences are analyzed and scored based on their degree of proximity to completion. Based on this scoring, a queue of invitational content can then be generated, where the scoring can be used to select and order the invitational content for the user. In some configurations, the information in the journal can be used to determine future time intervals at which sequences will be completed by the user. Consequently, a queue can be adjusted to provide delivery of appropriate invitational content at these future time intervals.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2010Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Kenley Sun, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Jayasurya Vadrevu, Omar Abdala

Patent number: 8504419Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for audience targeting based on a performance history of invitational content from secondary content providers, such as advertisements. In operation, responsive to request from a user for content package, a queue of available invitational content is retrieved. Thereafter, based at least on a performance history of the available invitational content in the queue, a context of the primary content, and a performance history of invitational content previously presented to other users, the queue can be at least partially reordered to provide an adjusted queue. The invitational content for the content package can then be selected based on the adjusted queue.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2010Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Kenley Sun, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Ravikiran Chittari, Jayasurya Vadrevu, Omar Abdala

Publication number: 20120054302Abstract: The selection of invitational content to deliver to a user can be influenced by the user's current location. Periodically, the content delivery system prioritizes the invitational content that is eligible for delivery to the user based on information about the user and the user's interactions with items of invitational content. Upon resolving a location associated with the user's device, the content delivery system re-prioritizes the invitational content. The re-prioritization can be based on the user's assignment to spatial-temporal segments or the user's proximity to predefined landmarks. An item is then selected from the re-prioritized invitational content and delivered to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2010Publication date: March 1, 2012Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Eswar Priyadarshan, Irfan Mohammed, Dan Marius Grigorovici, Omar Abdala
