Patent number: 11734450Abstract: A system and method are provided implementing user searching. The method includes receiving information from a potential user by an onboarding system including one or more attributes for attaching the user to one or more communities with similar attributes, and receiving one or more search terms from the user by a search system. A processor then performs a search based upon the received search terms and the one or more communities to which the user is attached, and a response to the search is displayed to the user on a display. A user preference to the presented response is confirmed by a preference system, and one or more communities to which the user is attached are dynamically updated, along with updating the attributes of the communities to which the user is attached in response to the user preference.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2021Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: Demand Pat LLCInventors: Joseph Fedele, Harpreet GeeKee, Richard Oh, Gordon Kessler

Patent number: 11657430Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards employing multiple profiles to track identification of users across multiple domains. Multiple application-domain profiles and multiple web-domain profiles may each include a statistical identifier. A profile enrichment store may be generated from the application-domain profiles and web-domain profiles, where each entry in the profile enrichment store may be based on statistical identifiers. The profile enrichment store may be utilized to determine categories associated with a statistical identifier for a request from a client device. A targeted advertisement may be determined based on the determined category and may be provided to the client device. A client caching identifier may be used in a mobile web domain, in combination with the statistical identifier, to track mobile web users. If a request is associated with a profile that includes an affirmative opt-out flag, categories in the profile enrichment store for a corresponding statistical identifier may be cleaned up.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2019Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Omar Tawakol, David Abraham Wiener, Fang Fang, Jason Leon Walsh, Raja Bishara Daoud, Jeffrey Charles Frantz

Patent number: 11636507Abstract: A control system determines whether a browser is retrieving supplemental content over a slow or faulty network using a tracking indicator. Based on determining that browser is retrieving supplemental content over a slow or faulty network, the control system modifies responses to opportunities to provide supplemental content to the browser. The control system may modify responses by declining to bid, responding with a lower bid amount, or responding with alternate supplemental content. Based on determining that browser is no longer retrieving supplemental content over a slow or faulty network, the control system modifies responses to opportunities to provide supplemental content to the browser by responding with a higher bid amount or responding with the original supplemental content. Thus, the control system maximizes the use of control system and campaign manager resources by responding to opportunities according to the likelihood that they will result in an impression or a conversion.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2022Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: Quantcast CorporationInventor: Gurel Erceis
