Patent number: 11907970Abstract: Adaptive control of exposure. A proportional exposure cap is a maximum fraction applicable to a recipient's total viewable attention in a time window. The total viewable attention represents all viewable advertising content which will be provided to the recipient. A notification of availability of an opportunity to expose a specified recipient to advertising content is received during the time window. The specified recipient's consumed viewable attention is detected. The specified recipient's total viewable attention for the time window is predicted. Responsive to the maximum fraction of the specified recipient's predicted total viewable attention for the time window being greater than the consumed viewable attention of the specified recipient, content is sent to the specified recipient and the consumed viewable attention is updated.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2023Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Quantcast CorporationInventors: Seph Zdarko, Ryan Lei Hin Chan, David Alexander Grant

Patent number: 11907973Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes generating, using a transaction management computing subsystem of an advertising platform, a set of primary bid requests responsive to receipt of an advertising call. Each primary bid request includes information sufficient to characterize an impression consumer and information sufficient to characterize each of one or more impressions identified in the advertising call. The method also includes sending the set of primary bid requests from the transaction management computing subsystem to a first set of decisioning computing subsystems of the advertising platform. Each decisioning computing subsystem of the first set being operable to generate a bid response based on the information included in a primary bid request.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Michiel Nolet, Charles Brian O'Kelley, Andrew S. Dilling, Frederick Bou-Hsuen Lu

Patent number: 11907974Abstract: Systems and methods for publishing content are provided. One method includes generating a content item template for a content item configured for publication within one or more resources. The method further includes storing the content item template within a memory for later publication. The method further includes receiving input data from the content provider and detecting a trigger signal associated with the content item. The method further includes entering the content item into an auction in response to detecting the trigger signal. The method further includes adding the input data provided by the content provider via the interface to the content item template to generate the content item prior to publication of the content item within the one or more resources.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventor: Xiaohuan Li

Patent number: 11907975Abstract: A feedback button is configured to receive a feedback expression characterizing a user experience and submit information in a user interface with a single action. When the user hovers an input cursor near the feedback button, icons/text may be displayed that indicate different types of feedback expressions that may be submitted. As the user moves the cursor back and forth over the button, the icons for the different feedback expressions may be emphasized indicating locations where the button may be clicked to submit specific feedback. When the user is satisfied with the displayed feedback expression, the user may click the feedback button at the current location to submit the feedback expression and perform the final submit action for other data in the user interface.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Lynn Ann Rampoldi-Hnilo, Hillel Noah Cooperman, Mahlon Connor Houk

Patent number: 11907978Abstract: Subscription-based electric vehicle charging management methods and systems are provided. A server receives charging request with at least a user identification code from an electric vehicle charging station or a mobile device through a network. The server searches a database according to the user identification code to obtain contract situation corresponding to the user identification code and determines whether the contract situation is in a contract expiration status or an arrears unpaid status. When the contract situation is not in the contract expiration status or the arrears unpaid status, the server instructs the electric vehicle charging station to perform a charging operation. When the contract situation is in the contract expiration status or the arrears unpaid status, the server transmits a charging rejection instruction to the electric vehicle charging station. In response to the charging rejection instruction, the electric vehicle charging station rejects the charging request.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2021Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: NOODOE GROUP INC.Inventors: En-Yu Shih, Yu-Ting Liou, Yi-An Hou
