Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture for reconciliation of commercial measurement ratings for non-return path data media devices are disclosed. Example apparatus disclosed herein are to estimate unreported addressable impressions for a plurality of unreported households for an addressable advertisement based on an impressions adjustment ratio of served reportable addressable impressions to exposed reported addressable impressions included in impressions data associated with reported households. Disclosed example apparatus are further to calculate at least one of reach or frequency for the addressable advertisement to account for non-reporting devices, the at least one of the reach or the frequency determined based on the exposed reported addressable impressions, the estimated unreported addressable impressions, and the impressions adjustment ratio.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to credit media segments shared among multiple media assets are disclosed. Example methods disclosed herein include comparing a sequence of monitored media signatures with a library of reference signatures to determine a signature match, the monitored media signatures representative of a monitored media presentation. Disclosed example methods also include determining a duration and an offset of the signature match, the offset to represent a position of the signature match relative to a start of a reference media asset associated with the signature match. Disclosed example methods further include crediting a segment of the monitored media presentation represented by the signature match to an identifier of a class of media assets including the reference media asset in response to a determination that (i) the duration of the signature match does not exceed a first threshold and (ii) the offset does not exceed a second threshold.

Abstract: Example apparatus disclosed herein to implement signature matching with meter data aggregation for use in media identification applications include a match job aggregator to aggregate batches of meter data from a meter to form aggregated meter data associated with the meter, and a hash matcher to identify a valid hash key match between meter hash keys generated from meter signatures in the aggregated meter data and reference hash keys corresponding to a collection of media assets. Disclosed example apparatus also include a signature matcher to align, based on the valid hash key match, a sequence of reference signatures corresponding to a first media asset associated with the valid hash key match and a corresponding sequence of the meter signatures, and compare the sequence of reference signatures and the corresponding sequence of meter signatures to identify media represented by at least a portion of the sequence of the meter signatures.

Abstract: Example methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to implement underaddressable advertisement measurement are disclosed. Example apparatus disclosed herein determine a tuned under-addressable advertisement duration and a total tuned advertisement duration for a first television broadcast at a first monitored site, the tuned under-addressable advertisement duration and the total tuned advertisement duration determined based on (i) returnpath tuning data associated with the first monitored site, (ii) linear advertisement log data associated with a broadcast area including the first monitored site, and (iii) addressable advertisement log data associated with the first monitored site. Disclosed example apparatus also determine an under-addressable advertisement factor for the first television broadcast based on the tuned under-addressable advertisement duration and the total tuned advertisement duration, and adjust an input advertisement rating for the first television broadcast based on the under-addressable advertisement factor to determine an under-addressable advertisement rating for the first television broadcast.
