Publication number: 20230358702Abstract: The invention relates to a simple method for preparing an NADH and ethanol biosensing chip, applicable to NADH or ethanol detection in the fermentation field, clinical medicine and food engineering. The sensing material described in the present invention is simple in preparation and can be prepared in batches, the nanogold is uniformly distributed on the surface of nickel hexacyanoferrate, and the quality of the sensing chip prepared based on this material is controllable. The sensing chip uses ethanol dehydrogenase as a biorecognition element and is more selective. The sensor chip detects ethanol and NADH in a wide linear range without dilution at a single detection time of less than 30 s and can realize real-time monitoring of fermentation broth.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2020Publication date: November 9, 2023Applicant: NANJING TECH UNIVERSITYInventors: Zhenyu CHU, Sijian ZHANG, Wanqin JIN

Publication number: 20180004846Abstract: A method of displaying secondary content is disclosed. The method receives historical behavior data and a search query for a user. The method extracts behavior features from the user's historical behavior and scores the user based on the behavioral features to create a user score specific to secondary content. The method uses the user score to display user specific secondary content to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2016Publication date: January 4, 2018Inventors: Shaoyu Zhou, Sijian Zhang, Aswath Mohan, Piyush Naik, Lauren M.

Publication number: 20170228462Abstract: Examples of the disclosure enable generating, maintaining, and/or updating a model configured to identify content for a segment. In some examples, a plurality of keywords associated with accessing webpages are retrieved. A plurality of keyword scores corresponding to the keywords are generated. Based on the keyword scores, a subset of keywords are identified as being associated with the segment. The subset of keywords are compared with content keywords associated with content to determine whether to include the content in a subset of content associated with the segment. Users associated with the subset of content are identified. Based on metrics associated with the users, the users are labeled for generating a training set associated with the segment. Aspects of the disclosure enable a predictive model to be generated, maintained, and/or updated in a calculated and systematic manner for increased performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 4, 2016Publication date: August 10, 2017Inventors: Jason Z. Zhu, Shaoyu Zhou, Kailun Hu, Yaowen Zhan, Wen Ding, James Sijian Zhang

Patent number: 9171311Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that maintain a targetable user inventory for digital advertising. In embodiments, a request is made for user data associated with a user identification. If the user data or user identification is not available, a list of alternative user identifications is ranked according to various criteria based on identification signals. A match is selected from the list of alternative user identifications and user data associated with the alternative user identification is communicated in response to the request.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2010Date of Patent: October 27, 2015Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Ehr-Chun Yeh, Sijian Zhang, Shaoyu Zhou, Lei Jin, Fei Cao

Patent number: 8839384Abstract: Methods and systems for maintaining user privacy preferences based on one or more user identifications across a plurality of applications are provided. Two or more user identifications are received with associated user privacy preferences. The received user identification is compared against other user identifications to determine if the user identifications relate to the same user. It may be determined that two user identifications are related if they have at least one browser property in common. A consolidated data stream of the user privacy preferences for the related user identifications is created. The consolidated data stream is communicated to one or more applications and propagated to maintain the user privacy preferences across the applications relating to the user identification.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2010Date of Patent: September 16, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Siddhartha Roy, Sijian Zhang, Michael Elizarov, Shaoyu Zhou, Fei Cao

Patent number: 8572239Abstract: Large sets of unorganized data may provide little value in identifying useful observations from such data. For example, an online merchant may maintain a database of millions of user IDs (e.g., a cookie ID, a login ID, a device ID, a network ID, etc.) along with content viewed and/or actions taken with the user IDs, where minimal associations are known between user IDs. It may be advantageous to link together user IDs of respective users to capture a comprehensive view of respective users' activities. Accordingly, one or more systems and/or techniques for identifying a cluster of nodes based upon transforming a set of node pairings (e.g., pairings of related nodes) one or more times are disclosed herein. Iterative transformations may be performed until respective nodes are paired with merely their smallest neighboring node and are paired with no other node. In this way, node clusters may be identifiable.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2010Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Fei Cao, Shaoyu Zhou, Zhuoqing Wu, Jr., Sijian Zhang, Siddhartha Roy, Michael A.
