Abstract: The present teaching relates to displaying ads. A generative artificial intelligence (AI) model for creating advertisement assets is obtained, via machine learning, based on training data generated based on online feedback information on previously displayed advertisements. Base advertisement information associated with an advertisement of a product specifying some attributes characterizing the product is received. Using the generative AI model, multiple advertisement assets are created with respect to some attribute of the advertisement. Each advertisement asset is a representation of an attribute. These advertisement assets are used to form different asset combinations, each of which can be used to display the advertisement.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a transmitting device and a receiving device to coordinate channel aware tone reservation (CATR) control information using distributed coding. The transmitting device and receiving device may estimate a similar wireless channel and select a set of reserved tone locations and may each independently encode the set of reserved tone locations. In some cases, the receiving device may receive parity information associated with the set of reserved tone locations selected by the transmitting device and may jointly decode the parity information with the set of reserved tone locations predicted by the receiving device to detect and correct one or more errors in the predicted set of reserved tone locations.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for online advertising. Bids are solicited from multiple bidders for an online ad display opportunity. A current value of a budget factor is retrieved and used for computing, for each advertisement corresponding to a respective bid, a wrapper function value based on the current value of the budget factor and a flow type of the advertisement. Based on the wrapper function value for each advertisement, a ranking score is determined and used to rank the advertisements associated with the bids. A winning bid is accordingly selected based on the ranking scores.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, control information indicating a first set of resource elements (REs) allocated for a tone reservation signal based on a channel frequency response. The UE and the network entity may determine a second set of REs for the tone reservation signal on the first set of REs and application of a rule. The rule may pertain to contention resolution between REs allocated for tone reservation signaling and REs allocated to a channel used for downlink signaling. The UE may receive both the tone reservation signal and a downlink signal, where the tone reservation signal is received in accordance with the second set of REs.

Abstract: Memory devices and methods for operating the same are provided. Generally, the device includes an array of multibit-memory-cells, each operable to store multiple bits in separate locations of a charge-trapping layer, and control-circuitry coupled to the array. The control-circuitry is operable read 1st and 2nd bit values of each cell individually based on generated first and second sensed currents, where the first and second sensed currents correspond to charges trapped in first and second bit locations. The control-circuitry executes an algorithm based on the first and second sensed currents and determines a logic state of the cell. In one embodiment, the control-circuitry averages the sensed currents, and compares this to a reference current to determine the logic state. In another, the 2nd bit value is a complement of the 1st, and the control-circuitry compares the currents to determine the logic state without use of a reference current.

Generally, the resistor network includes a resistor ladder with a first number (n) of integrated resistors coupled in series between a top and a bottom contact, with one or more contacts coupled between adjacent resistors. A second number of integrated resistors is coupled in parallel between the top and bottom contacts, and a third number of integrated resistors is coupled in series between the second integrated resistors and either the top or the bottom contact. Each of the integrated resistors has a resistance of R, and a voltage developed across each resistor in the resistor ladder is equal to a voltage applied between the top and bottom contacts divided by n. Where the second number is n?1, and the third number is 1, the total number of resistors is 2n.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to generating an updated model related to advertisement selection. In one example, a request is obtained for updating a model to be utilized for selecting an advertisement. A plurality of copies of the model is generated. The model is pre-selected based on a performance metric related to advertisement selection. Based on each of the plurality of copies, a candidate model is created by modifying one or more parameters of the copy of the model to create a plurality of candidate models. One of the plurality of candidate models is selected based on the performance metric. The steps of generating, creating, and selecting are repeated until a predetermined condition is met. The model is updated with the latest selected candidate model when the predetermined condition is met.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to displaying ads. An explore/exploit layer (EEL) is provided at frontend ad serving engine for storing combination distributions with respect to multiple ads. Each ad has multiple attributes. Each attribute can be instantiated using one of multiple assets. The frontend ad serving engine requests a recommended ad for bidding an ad display opportunity in a slot of a webpage viewed by a user on a user device. The recommended ad is one of the multiple ads. When the auction is successful, a combination of assets for the ad is drawn from the combination distributions in EEL and each of the assets instantiates a corresponding attribute of the ad. The combination is transmitted to the user device to render the ad.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to generating combination distributions for ads. Features are computed based on training data associated with ads, each of which has a plurality of attributes. The training data include asset combinations with past performance thereof for each of the ads. Each combination includes multiple assets representing respective attributes of an ad. The features are used in machine learning to obtain an auxiliary model, which is used to generate combination distributions for each ad based on predicted performance for each combination associated with the ad. Such generated combination distributions are sent to an explore/exploit layer (EEL) for a frontend ad serving engine to draw a combination therefrom for an auction winning ad for rendering on a webpage viewed by a user on a user device.
