摘要:
An improved system and method for forecasting an inventory of online advertisement impressions for targeting profiles of attributes is provided. An index of advertisement impressions on display advertising properties may be built for a targeting profile of attributes from forecasted impression pools. Impression pools of advertisements sharing the same attributes and trend forecast data for web pages and advertisement placements on the web pages may be integrated to generate the forecasted impression pools. An index of several index tables may be generated from forecasted impression pools. A query may be submitted to obtain an inventory forecast of advertisement impressions for targeting profiles of attributes and the index may be searched to match forecasted impression pools for the targeted profile of attributes. Then the inventory forecast of advertisement impressions on display advertising properties may be returned as query results for the targeting profile of attributes.

摘要:
A method for processing data on a distributed computing environment is provided. Input data that is to be processed may be stored on an input storage module. Mapper code can be loaded onto a map module and executed. The mapper code can load a mapper executable file onto the map module from a central storage unit and instantiate the mapper executable file. The mapper code, then, can pass the input data to the mapper executable file. The mapper executable file can generate mapped data based on the input data and pass the mapped data back to the mapper code.
摘要:
A system for advertisement inventory allocation is disclosed, including a database to store advertisement impressions. An indexer builds a plurality of index tables each associated with an attribute that is mapped to a plurality of the impressions. An impression matcher constructs a flow network including a plurality of nodes each containing impressions of at least one corresponding attribute projected to be available during a time period, a plurality of contracts each including specific requests for impressions that satisfy a demand profile during the time period, and a plurality of arcs to connect the plurality of nodes to the plurality of contracts that match the demand profile of each contract. An optimizer optimally allocates impressions from the nodes to the contracts during the time period by solving the flow network with a minimum-cost network flow algorithm that maximizes delivery of the impressions to the contracts in a way that satisfies the corresponding demand profiles and that specifies a number of impressions to flow over each of the plurality of arcs.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.

Data quality measurement is provided for use in a data processing stream, which comprises at least one upstream data processing system and at least one downstream data processing system. An input alert component can be used to provide a measurement of data prior to its input to a data processing system (e.g., a downstream data processing system or an upstream data processing system). An output alert component can be used to provide a measurement on data output by a data processing system. A self-consistency component can be used to measure consistency between items of input, or output data. An end-to-end component can be used to measure data quality using data items from both input data and output data. These components can be used in some combination, or independent of the other, and in any order. In addition, the data quality measurements can be performed separate from that processing performed by either the upstream or downstream processing system.

Systems and methods for automatically forecasting the future availability of one or more resources, such as Internet advertising opportunities, are described herein. In accordance with various embodiments, a forecasting model that accounts for event-driven resource availability is trained based both on historical supply data and calendar information specifying events and event duration. The trained forecasting model is then used to forecast the availability of resources at one or more specified future time periods. In accordance with certain embodiments, the forecasting model comprises a Gaussian process model that has an event-driven kernel as a covariance function.
