摘要： A predictive model analysis system comprises a receiver component that receives predictive samples created by way of forward sampling. An analysis component analyzes a plurality of the received predictive samples and automatically determines whether a predictive model is reliable at a time range associated with the plurality of predictive sample, wherein the determination is made based at least in part upon an estimated norm associated with a forward sampling operator.

摘要： The invention provides systems and methods that can be used for targeted advertising. The system determines where to present impressions, such as advertisements, to maximize an expected utility subject to one or more constraints, which can include quotas and minimum utilities for groups of one or more impression. The traditional measure of utility in web-based advertising is click-though rates, but the present invention provides a broader definition of utility, including measures of sales, profits, or brand awareness, for example. This broader definition permits advertisements to be allocated more in accordance with the actual interests of advertisers.

摘要： Architecture for detecting and removing obfuscating clutter from the subject and/or body of a message, e.g., e-mail, prior to filtering of the message, to identify junk messages commonly referred to as spam. The technique utilizes the powerful features built into an HTML rendering engine to strip the HTML instructions for all non-substantive aspects of the message. Pre-processing includes pre-rendering of the message into a final format, which final format is that which is displayed by the rendering engine to the user. The final format message is then converted to a text-only format to remove graphics, color, non-text decoration, and spacing that cannot be rendered as ASCII-style or Unicode-style characters. The result is essentially to reduce each message to its common denominator essentials so that the junk mail filter can view each message on an equal basis.

摘要： Targeted delivery of items with inventory management using a cluster-based approach or a rule-based approach is disclosed. An example of items is advertisements. Each item is allocated to one or more clusters. The allocation is made based on a predetermined criterion accounting for at least a quota for each item and possibly a constraint for each cluster. The former can refer to the number of times an item must be shown. The latter can refer to the number of times a given group of web pages is likely to be visited by users, and hence is the number of times items can be shown in a given cluster. The invention is not limited to any particular definition of what constitutes a cluster or item.

摘要： The present invention leverages scalable learning methods to efficiently obtain a Bayesian network for a set of variables of which the total ordering in a domain is known. Certain criteria are employed to generate a Bayesian network which is then evaluated and utilized as a guide to generate another Bayesian network for the set of variables. Successive iterations are performed utilizing a prior Bayesian network as a guide until a stopping criterion is reached, yielding a best-effort Bayesian network for the set of variables.

摘要： A streaming media caching mechanism and cache manager efficiently establish and maintain the contents of a streaming media cache for use in serving streaming media requests from cache rather than from an original data source when appropriate. The cost of caching is incurred only when the benefits of caching are likely to be experienced. The caching mechanism and cache manager evaluate the request count for each requested URL to determine whether the URL represents a cache candidate, and further analyze the URL request rate to determine whether the content associated with the URL will be cached. In an embodiment, the streaming media cache is maintained with a predetermined amount of reserve capacity rather than being filled to capacity whenever possible.

摘要： Determination of a distribution of a numeric variable. In one embodiment, a data set is first input. The data set has a plurality of records. Each record has a value for each of a plurality of raw non-transactional variables. The plurality of raw non-transactional variables includes a numeric variable. It is determined whether a Gaussian or a log-Gaussian distribution better predicts the numeric variable, based on the plurality of records. This determination is then output.

摘要： A general event composing and monitoring system that allows high-level events to be created from combinations of low-level events. An event specification tool allows for rapid development of a general event processor that creates high-level events from combinations of user actions. The event system, in combination with a reasoning system, is able to monitor and perform inference about several classes of events for a variety of purposes. The various classes of events include the current context, the state of key data structures in a program, general sequences of user inputs, including actions with a mouse-controlled cursor while interacting with a graphical user interface, words typed in free-text queries for assistance, visual information about users, such as gaze and gesture information, and speech information. Additionally, a method is provided for building an intelligent user interface system by constructing a reasoning model to compute the probability of alternative user's intentions, goals, or informational needs through analysis of information about a user's actions, program state, and words. The intelligent user interface system monitors user interaction with a software application and applies probabilistic reasoning to sense that the user may need assistance in using a particular feature or to accomplish a specific task. The intelligent user interface also accepts a free-text query from the user asking for help and combines the inference analysis of user actions and program state with an inference analysis of the free-text query. The inference system accesses a rich, updatable user profile system to continually check for competencies and changes assistance that is given based on user competence.
