  • Patent number: 11138631
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for predictive user segmentation modeling and browsing interaction analysis for digital advertising. In one embodiment, an example method may include identifying a target consumer segment, generating a predictive user behavior model for the target consumer segment based at least in part on selected user data, and receiving an indication that a user is browsing a website. Example methods may include generating a first customer score for the user using the predictive user behavior model in real-time, and determining that the first customer score meets a consumer segment modification threshold for the target consumer segment.

  • Patent number: 11049133
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for automated server-based content delivery. In one embodiment, an example method may include determining campaign information for a content delivery campaign, the campaign information comprising a first allocation value for first content, and a second allocation value for second content, determining first observed data comprising a first user response rate for the first content and a second user response rate for the second content, determining an exponentiated gradient algorithm for the content delivery campaign, and determining a reallocation amount to reallocate a portion of the first allocation value to the second allocation value using the exponentiated gradient algorithm based at least in part on the first observed data, wherein the reallocation amount maximizes an output of the exponentiated gradient algorithm.
