    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to automate receivability updates for media crediting. At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium comprises instructions that, when executed, cause at least one processor to at least identify a station identifier associated with at least one of a signature or a code, the at least one of the signature or the code collected at a panelist household. The instructions, when executed, cause at least one processor to further determine whether a household receivability table includes the station identifier, to determine, in response to a determination that the household receivability table does not include a station corresponding to the station identifier, whether the station is receivable at the panelist household, and to update the household receivability table, the update in response to a determination that the station corresponding to the station identifier is receivable at the panelist household.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to estimate and deduplicate audiences are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes a controller to determine a subunion of at least first and second marginal audiences of media based on of panel data and census data, the panel data including a panel impression count and a panel audience size, and the census data including a census impression count, an audience size calculator to determine a census audience size of the at least the first and second marginal audiences based on the panel impression count and the panel audience size and determine a subunion census audience size, the subunion census audience size corresponding to an overlap between the at least the first and second marginal audiences; and a report generator to generate a report including the census audience size and the subunion census audience size.

    摘要: Systems and methods to identify intentionally placed products in media content are disclosed. An example apparatus includes an audience measurement monitor to detect a presence of an intentionally placed prop in media by processing metadata stored in a local memory at the audience measurement monitor, user interaction with the prop causing a display of information related to the prop; detect a selection of a uniform resource locator (URL) displayed with the media by an audience member during presentation of the intentionally placed prop in the media, the selection of the URL causing a display device displaying the media to access a web page including information related to the intentionally placed prop; and identify the media in which the intentionally placed prop is located; and a collection facility to generate a report including at least one of the presence of the intentionally placed prop or the selection of URL.

    摘要: Apparatus, systems, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed for multiple scrambled layers for audio watermarking. An example system includes a processor to execute instructions to: divide the watermark into a plurality of watermark symbols; map the watermark symbols to a plurality of frequency bins according to a first distribution scheme to create a first watermark layer having first frequency bins and a second watermark layer having second frequency bins, subsets of adjacent ones of the plurality of frequency bins grouped into a corresponding plurality of frequency clumps; determine a sequence for shifting watermark symbols to cause different combinations of watermark symbols that include one watermark symbol from each watermark layer to share a first number of frequency bins, the first number to be less than a number of watermark symbols in the different combinations; and generate a second distribution scheme to map the watermark symbols.
