  • Patent number: 11042571
    Abstract: Methods and systems for maximizing data utility efficiency to maximize dynamic application of content in a database as applied to a validation are disclosed herein. A system for maximizing data utility efficiency to maximize dynamic application of content in a database as applied to a validation can include a memory having a first database containing information identifying a plurality of topics and a second database containing a plurality of content items. The system can further include a server that can maximize data utility efficiency by identifying multipurpose content items.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20170255875
    Abstract: The present technology relates to systems and methods for termination rules of an assessment or validation based on a history of the validation and a probability that the validation has achieved a valid result. More specifically, the present technology relates to using bootstrap sampling to determine whether a termination rule for an validation is terminating the validation at an appropriate time. Conditions or criteria for termination may include a variety of different parameters, rules or thresholds, such as a termination or cut threshold. The bootstrap termination rule can be one or several values associated with the participant's validation and that can be used to determine when to terminate a validation apart from determining that the participant has passed the validation.
