    摘要: 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.

    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: 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: Methods and apparatus for a recommendation system based on collaborative filtering is provided. Explicit and implicit ratings of items by network users are used to create a contextual model. The explicit ratings comprise different rating types regarding different item attributes. The implicit ratings comprise different rating types derived from different user events and may include recency, intensity, or frequency ratings. The contextual model may be optimized for a specific objective function, such as click-through-rate or conversion rate. In other embodiments, item information is used to produce a content model where item information for an item is encoded as metadata into a document that represents the item. The contextual or content model is used to recommend one or more items to a current user. The basic unit of the recommendation system may be an item set of two or more items or a particular sequence of two or more items.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for predicting visitor traffic to a network of web site pages. The systems and methods are used, as an example, to predict the inventory of total available online advertisements available within the network for a forthcoming period. The visitor traffic includes page viewing, listening or transacting on web pages within a web site, wherein the web pages are categorized by subject, interest areas or specific user queries such as word or phrase searches. For each page whose traffic is being predicted, the system takes into account annual seasonality, day-of-week, holidays, special events, short histories, user demographics, user web behavior (viewing, listening and transacting) and parent and child web page characteristics.

    摘要: A system for automatically tracking the location of a vehicle includes a visual image detector mounted on the vehicle for producing as the vehicle moves along a route digitized strips of image data representing successive panoramic views of scenery about the vehicle at respective locations along the route. A sparse tracking subsystem processes and stores only selected ones of the image data strips representing substantially spaced apart successive locations along the route, for use as a sparse database. A dense tracking subsystem processes and stores as a dense database every successive one of the image data strips representing location along the route, whereby the dense tracking subsystem provides more accurate location of the vehicle when it retraces some portion of the route than the sparse tracking subsystem. After the sparse and dense databases are established, the location of the vehicle in real time as it retraces the route is performed by the dense tracking subsystem matching current image data strips from the visual image detector with the dense database strips to determine the location of the vehicle, as long as the vehicle stays on the pre-established route. If the vehicles strays from the route, the system senses the deviation and switches to the sparse tracking system to search a broader area in less time than the dense tracking system to attempt to relocate the vehicle along the route, after which the system switches back to the dense tracking subsystem.
