A method and system are provided for targeting ads by effectively combining behavioral targeting and social networking. In one example, the method includes receiving a behavioral targeting model to predict a propensity of each consumer in a network to select (e.g., click) an ad of a particular category based on a behavior of each consumer, training a social network model to predict a propensity of a particular consumer to select an ad of the particular category based on features derived from a social network of the particular consumer, and training an ensemble classifier to decide when to trust the behavioral targeting model and when to defer to the social model for predicting a propensity of the particular consumer to select an ad of the particular category.

A system for incentivizing sharing advertisements (“ads”) and associated deals with others includes a processor programmed to transmit to a user, for display in an application window of a communication device of a user, an advertisement and an associated deal with an economic incentive for sharing the advertisement with first persons in a social network of the user. The system tracks and stores referral activity by the first persons in the social network of the user in relation to the advertisement, the referral activity including the first persons sharing the advertisement with second persons. The system tracks and stores conversion activity such as purchasing by the first persons in the social network of the user in relation to the deal and purchasing by second persons referred by the first persons. The system delivers the economic incentive to the user for sharing with the first persons; for the first and second persons who share the advertisement; and/or for the first and second persons who convert the deal.

A method for adaptive display of internet advertisements to look-alike users using a desired user profile dataset as a seed to machine learning modules. Upon availability of a desired user profile, that user profile is mapped other look-alike users (from a larger database of users). The method proceeds to normalize the desired user profile object, proceeds to normalize known user profile objects, then seeding a machine-learning training model with the normalized desired user profile object. A scoring engine uses the normalized user profiles for matching based on extracted features (i.e. extracted from the normalized user profile objects). Once look-alike users have been identified, the internet display system may serve advertisements to the look-alike users, and analyze look-alike users' behaviors for storing the predicted similar user profile objects into the desired user profile object dataset, thus adapting to changing user behavior.

An improved system and method for finding connected components in a large-scale graph is provided. In a map-reduce framework, subsets of a collection of edges for unique vertices may be distributed to several mappers. Connected components of subgraphs represented by each subset of edges may be computed by each mapper. Then the sets of edges for connected components of subgraphs may be sorted by vertex. The sets of edges representing connected components of subgraphs may be distributed to one or more reducers to find maximal sets of weakly connected components of the large-scale graph. The sorted sets of edges for each vertex representing the maximal sets of connected components for subgraphs may be merged by a reducer to identify maximal sets of connected components of a graph, and the maximal sets of connected components of a graph may be output.

An online advertising selects online advertisements for display on a network location taking into account a probability that a candidate online advertisement will receive a click on a particular website. The system may determine a network location identity of the network location and transform a set of advertisements into a set of ranked advertisements. The system may determine an advertisement rank of a first advertisement among the set of ranked advertisements. The system then may generate a click probability value. The click probability value may reflect a click probability of the first advertisement by dividing an exponent of a weighted sum of the network location identity and the advertisement rank by one plus the exponent of the weighted sum of the network location identity and the advertisement rank.

Machine learning techniques are employed to build and evolve classifiers (e.g., decision trees or other rule-based classifiers) which generate scores representing confidence values associated with particular paths through a classifier (rather than discrete class labels), and then compare those scores to tunable thresholds to effect classification.
