Patent number: 11494810Abstract: Keyword bids determined from sparse data are described. Initially, a portfolio optimization platform identifies which keywords included in a portfolio of keywords are low-impression keywords. This platform trains a machine learning model to generate bids for the low-impression keywords with historical data from a search engine. In particular, the platform trains this machine learning model according to an algorithm suited for training with sparse amounts of data, e.g., a temporal difference learning algorithm. In contrast, the platform uses different models, trained according to different algorithms than the low-impression keyword model, to generate bids for keywords determined not to be low-impression keywords. Once the low-impression keyword model is trained offline, the platform deploys the model for use online to generate actual bids for the low-impression keywords and submits them to the search engine.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2019Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Anirban Basu, Tathagata Sengupta, Kunal Kumar Jain, Ashish Kumar

Patent number: 11240326Abstract: An electronic device identifier mapping and resolution system are disclosed which may be used to analyze various device identifiers associated with an online event initiated by a particular device in applying a matching algorithm to determine a unique device identifier and/or device profile for the device. Device identifiers provided from disparate sources (such as web browser cookies, network IP addresses, device-specific identifiers, application-specific identifiers, custom identifiers, probabilistic identifiers, etc.), including both deterministic and/or probabilistic identifiers, may be analyzed according to the matching algorithm to determine a device identifier associated with the device. Matching algorithms may be customized and configured to a high degree of complexity for respective entities, such as to analyze disparate device identifiers according to a variety of identifier comparison functions and matching tiers.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2020Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: The 41st Parameter, Inc.Inventors: Manoj Khanwalkar, Adler Camacho, Stephen Van Lare, Omer Winkler, Luke David Tuttle, Surag I.

Patent number: 11228798Abstract: One high-level aspect of a content-modification system and related methods may involve facilitating content modification by a content-presentation device of received broadcast content in a controlled manner, while under circumstances in which some events that can impact timing may be unpredictable. In particular, certain operations by a content-presentation device may involve matching received content with specific expected content as determined by one or another component of the content-modification system, in order to confirm proper conditions are met for the content-presentation device to proceed with, or continue, content-modification operations. It can happen the matching procedure becomes subject or susceptible to timing irregularities, or jitter. In some instances, jitter may impact the ability to derive the benefits of content modification. Accordingly, example embodiments herein are directed to systems and method for compensation and/or mitigating the effects of jitter.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2021Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: Roku, Inc.Inventors: Shashank Merchant, Bruce William Randall, Brian Johnson, Chungwon Seo, Seunghyeong Lee, Paul Jeffrey Holmquist

Patent number: 11226972Abstract: Query service receives a query comprising at least a name component. The query service searches a document corpus to identify multiple passages, each comprising a mention of the name component within a selection of one or more documents of the document corpus. The query service collects bins, each bin comprising a distinct selection of the passages from the one or more documents, each of the bins identifying a separate relationship the name component participates in within the distinct selection of passages. The query service assesses a separate score of each respective bin reflecting the relevance of each respective bin to the query. The query service returns a response to the query with the bins each ranked according to each separate score.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2019Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Kristen M.

Patent number: 11157188Abstract: Techniques for processing data may include: receiving a candidate data block; computing a distance using a distance function, wherein the distance is an entropy-based distance and denotes a measurement of similarity between the candidate data block and a target data block; and determining, using the distance, whether to perform data deduplication of the candidate data block with respect to the target data block to identify at least one sub-block of the candidate data block that is a duplicate of at least one sub-block of the target data block. If the distance is less than a threshold, it may be expected to have a matching sub-block between the candidate and target data blocks. The distance may be a difference between entropy values for the candidate and target data blocks. The first entropy value may be used to determine whether to compress or perform partial deduplication for the candidate data block.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2019Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Ivan Bassov, Sorin Faibish, Istvan Gonczi, Philippe Armangau

Patent number: 11113255Abstract: In order to facilitate entity resolution, systems and methods include a processor receiving first records associated with one or more entities, and second records associated with the one or more entities. The processor generates candidate pairs based on a similarity between first entity data and second entity data. The processor generates features for each candidate pair based on similarity measures between the first entity record and the second entity record. The processor utilizes a scoring machine learning model to determine a match score for each candidate pair based on each feature. The processor determines clusters of candidate pairs based on the match score of each feature for each candidate pair. The processor merges records of candidate pairs of each cluster into a respective entity record. The processor determines an entity associated with each entity record and updates an entity database with the entity record.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2020Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Capital One Services, LLCInventors: Tanveer Afzal Faruquie, Christopher J.
