  • Publication number: 20210224856
    Abstract: A system for determining the effectiveness of an advertising campaign on an electronic advertising platform includes a computing device configured to obtain exposure data characterizing a user's interaction with the advertising platform during an advertising campaign and to categorize the user into one of a plurality of exposure bins based on the exposure data. The computing device may be further configured to obtain sales feature data characterizing the user's purchase behavior on the advertising platform both before and during the advertising campaign and to categorize the user into one of a plurality of sales clusters based on the sales feature data. The computing device may be further configured to define a control group comprising unexposed users categorized into the same exposure bins and sales clusters as exposed users and to compare purchase data of the exposed users to the purchase data of the control group.

  • Patent number: 6448412
    Abstract: The invention is directed to multiply-substituted fullerene derivatives of novel configurations, and methods for their preparation and use. The methods involve the combinatorial synthesis of a library of fullerene derivatives and comprises the steps of forming a mixture of fullerene derivatives by reacting the Cn fullerene with two or more reactive precursor compounds, and removing the unreacted compounds to yield the fullerene derivatives having the desired activity. Methods for the identification and screening of a combinatorial library of fullerenes by 3He-nuclear magnetic resonance and electrospray mass spectrometry to define members with the optimal desired activity are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6162926
    Abstract: The invention is directed to multiply-substituted fullerene derivatives of novel configurations, and methods for their preparation and use. The methods involve the combinatorial synthesis of a library of fullerene derivatives and comprises the steps of forming a mixture of fullerene derivatives by reacting the C.sub.n fullerene with two or more reactive precursor compounds, and removing the unreacted compounds to yield the fullerene derivatives having the desired activity. Methods for the identification and screening of a combinatorial library of fullerenes by .sup.3 He-nuclear magnetic resonance and electrospray mass spectrometry to define members with the optimal desired activity are also provided.
