摘要: Methods and apparatus to generate audience measurement data from population sample data having incomplete demographic classifications are disclosed. An example method includes detecting that a number of impressions a time segment of a video occurred based on messages; detecting that no impressions for the time segment of the video were detected by the database proprietor; determining respective percentages of exposures of the video that are attributable to corresponding ones of multiple demographic groups, determining the respective percentages being based on the first demographic information provided by the database proprietor for exposures of other time segments of the video; attributing respective portions of the number of impressions to the demographic groups based on the respective percentages to determine imputed numbers of impressions; generating adjusted numbers of impressions based on the imputed numbers of impressions; and determining ratings information for the video using the adjusted numbers of impressions.

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 and apparatus to synthesize reference media signatures based on constituent media signatures generated by metered media devices are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a collector to collect first constituent media signatures from a first media device that identify a first portion of media, a collector to collect second constituent media signatures from a second media device that identify a second portion of the media, and a synthesizer to combine the first constituent media signatures from the first media device and the second constituent media signatures from the second media device to form a reference media signature that represents the media, the reference media signature for comparison with third constituent media signatures collected from a third media device to detect consumption of the media at the third media device.

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: Methods, systems, articles of manufacture and apparatus to privatize consumer data are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus includes a consumer data acquirer to collect original data corresponding to (a) confidential information associated with consumers and (b) behavior information associated with the consumers, and a data obfuscator. The data obfuscator is to determine a degree to which the original data is to be obfuscated and a type of obfuscation to be applied to the original data based on the original data, generate obfuscation adjustments of the original data based on the degree and the type, and generate an obfuscation model based on the obfuscation adjustments.

摘要: Methods and apparatus to audio watermarking and watermark detection and extracted are described herein. An example method includes receiving a media content signal, sampling the media content signal to generate samples, storing the samples in a buffer, determining a first sequence of samples in the buffer, determining a second sequence of samples in the buffer, wherein the second sequence of samples is of substantially equal length as the first sequence of samples, calculating an average of the first sequence of samples and the second sequence of samples to generate an average sequence of samples, extracting an identifier from the average sequence of samples, and storing the identifier in a tangible memory.

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.

摘要: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to correct misattributions of media impressions are disclosed. An example method includes obtaining first demographic-based impressions transmitted via a network in response to access to media by a first set of individuals, obtaining, from a database, second demographic-based impressions of the media accessed by a second set of individuals, and multiplying a vector of database proprietor impression data from the database by a pseudo-inverse matrix representative of misattribution data among a first and second set of individuals to calculate corrected demographic-based impression values.
