摘要:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for generating supply forecasts for advertisement impressions are provided. Supply forecasts for future advertisement inventory are enabled to be determined that match attribute values received from a requester in a query or “contract.” Such supply forecasts may be determined based on cumulative or non-cumulative supply forecast values, and may be determined based on time series of supply forecast values for individual impressions or for blocks of impressions.

Disclosed is a system to forecast a supply of online advertising demand contracts having day parting targets. The system may receive an online advertising demand contract having a flight duration and a day parting target. The received online advertising demand contract may be processed by converting the day parting target into an hour-of-week day parting target vector. If a first day of the flight duration would generate a conflict in view of the hour-of-week day parting target vector, then the system may generate a new first day contract for the first day of the flight duration.

Techniques are described herein for using an impression-trend technique to provide a display advertising supply forecast. A display advertising supply forecast is an estimate of a number of impressions, which are to occur in a future time period, that have specified attribute values. For example, the specified attribute values may be descriptive of impressions with respect to which an advertiser wishes to place ads. An impression-trend technique is a forecasting technique that uses trends regarding past impressions to forecast a number of future impressions that have specified attribute values. The past impressions include attribute values that are related to the specified attribute values.

A network based advertisement system includes a supply forecasting system configured to select, from a campaign log database, data that defines a plurality of contracts. Each contract specifies requirements that include contract target audience information and a number of impressions. For each contract, the supply forecasting system identifies one or more opportunity samples with characteristics that match contract target audience information of the contract. Each opportunity sample is associated with a weight that corresponds to a number of opportunities with similar characteristics. An optimizer associates the opportunity samples with the contract and then determines whether the opportunity samples are associated with other contracts. The optimizer then limits the number of opportunities associated with the samples that are allocatable to the contract based at least in part on a function of requirements of other contracts associated with the one or more samples.

A method for allocating inventory in a networked environment includes receiving a request to purchase a number of display impressions, the request including targeting parameters and a frequency constraint corresponding to a maximum number of times the advertisement can be displayed to a user. The method also includes allocating the requested number of display impressions across a set of user samples, where the number of impressions allocated to any one user sample in the set of user samples is constrained by the frequency constraint. Allocation information that defines how the impressions are allocated among the user samples is stored to a user sample database.

A computer-implemented method and display advertising server network for serving impression opportunities to a frequency-capped guaranteed delivery contract in a system for delivery of display advertising to a user. The method includes steps for receiving, from a computer, an event predicate and a user ID corresponding to the user, retrieving, from an index engine, a set of eligible frequency-capped contracts, wherein an eligible contract comprises at least one target predicate matching at least a portion of the event predicate, and probabilistically selecting for serving, in a computer, the booked contract having a frequency cap specification, only when the selected frequency-capped contract can be served to the user without violating the frequency cap specification. Exemplary embodiments include generating a pseudo-random number sequence, and then selecting a particular pseudo-random number from the series of pseudo-random numbers, the selected particular pseudo-random number being based on the user ID, a visit count, a URL.

A method of constructing a score-optimal R-tree to support top-k stabbing queries over a set of scored intervals generates a constraint graph from the set, and determines over each node in the constraint graph that has no other nodes pointing to it the node with the smallest left endpoint; for each of these nodes, the associated interval is added to the tree and the node is removed from the constraint graph.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for identifying compatible advertisement contracts to satisfy an advertisement opportunity. The systems and methods include receiving a number of attribute values associated with a user accessing a network-based location. The systems and methods include sorting an index of lists for a plurality of advertisement contracts on the basis of a number of contract term values. The systems and methods include traversing the index of lists to return a set advertisement contracts compatible with the number of attribute values associated with the user. The systems and methods include selecting a given advertisement contract from the set of advertisement contracts compatible with the number of attribute values associated with the user. The systems and methods include presenting an advertisement associated with the given advertisement contract on a display viewable by the user accessing the network-based location.
