    Abstract: A method of automatic content verification may include requesting, from a server by an application executed by a client device, an item of content for display to a user of the client device, the request comprising environmental information related to an environment in which the item of content is to be rendered on the client device. A network interface of the client device may receive, from the server, the requested item of content. A renderer of the client device integrated with the application may render the received item of content. A capture module of the client device integrated with the application may capture an image of the rendered item of content. The network interface of the client device may transmit, to the server, the captured image, the server comparing the captured image to a predetermined image to identify any rendering distortion.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a user device, a plurality of signals pushed to the user device from a plurality of store devices located in a plurality of physical storefronts. Each signal includes a store identifier identifying the associated physical storefront. Store visit data is generated for each signal, the store visit data including the store identifiers and time data representing times associated with visits to the physical storefronts. Store visit data is aggregated for the plurality of signals pushed to the user device. Aggregated store visit data is transmitted to an analytics server configured to combine aggregated store visit data from a plurality of user devices and generate analytics data from the combined aggregated store visit data. At least a portion of the time data is removed from the aggregated store visit data before transmission to the analytics server.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a technique for reducing latency in converting a term in a message to a hyperlink to a content item. The system can receive, from a messaging application executed by a first computing device, a first portion of a message and select a first content item based on the first portion of the message. The system can receive a second portion of the message and select a second content item based on the second portion and the first portion. The system can replace the first content item with the second content item. The system can provide instructions to the messaging application executed by the first computing device to convert a term of the message to a hyperlink for the second content item prior to transmission of the message from the first computing device to the second computing device via the messaging application.

    Abstract: In general, this disclosure is directed to techniques for toggling communication connections based on signal strengths. A first computing device receives an indication of a user input to send data packets to a second computing device. Responsive to receiving the indication, the first computing device determines a signal strength of a first wireless communication connection, comprising one of a cellular network connection or a wireless local area network connection, to the second computing device, and determines whether the signal strength satisfies a threshold signal strength level. Responsive to determining that the signal strength does not satisfy the threshold signal strength level, the first computing device automatically establishes a second wireless communication connection, including a mesh network using a different wireless communication protocol than the first wireless communication connection, to the second computing device, and sends the data packets to the second computing device via the second wireless communication connection.

    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems for sourcing hours of operation for a business or other location entity can include receiving a request to update hours of operation. A number of mobile devices present at the location entity during one or more periods of time can be determined based at least in part on a collection of time-stamped mobile device location data that identifies mobile devices associated with discrete users present at the location entity. The number of mobile devices and initial operating hours for the location entity can be provided as input to a statistical model (e.g., neural network, support-vector machine (SVM) or logistic regression model). An output of the model can indicate a likelihood that operating hours for the location entity have changed relative to the initial operating hours. The operating hours for the location entity can then be updated based at least in part on the model output.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing an interface and implementing rules and metrics received from the interface regarding the selection of sponsored content networks that provide sponsored content items. This may include providing mediation code to a publisher for inclusion in publisher content provided to a user device, the mediation code associated with a table of sponsored content networks, receiving an image of a sponsored content item and a sponsored content network identifier from the user device, analyzing the image of the sponsored content item, the analysis generating extracted image data from the sponsored content item, categorizing the sponsored content item based on the extracted image data and the sponsored content network identifier, receiving an instruction to filter the sponsored content networks exceeding a metric based on a category, and updating the table of sponsored content networks to remove a particular sponsored content network.
