Appl. No.:

12/751937

Inventors:

Adwait Ratnaparkhi - San Jose CA, US
Abraham Bagherjeiran - Sunnyvale CA, US
Andrew O. Hatch - Oakland CA, US

Assignee:

Yahoo! Inc. - Sunnyvale CA

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

705 1443, 705 1442, 705 144

Abstract:

An online advertising selects online advertisements for display on a network location taking into account a probability that a candidate online advertisement will receive a click on a particular website. The system may determine a network location identity of the network location and transform a set of advertisements into a set of ranked advertisements. The system may determine an advertisement rank of a first advertisement among the set of ranked advertisements. The system then may generate a click probability value. The click probability value may reflect a click probability of the first advertisement by dividing an exponent of a weighted sum of the network location identity and the advertisement rank by one plus the exponent of the weighted sum of the network location identity and the advertisement rank.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

705 1466

Abstract:

Disclosed are apparatus and methods for apparatus and methods for facilitating contextual selection of advertisements for displaying online via a computer network. In general, user features in the form of text are provided in conjunction with web page content for contextual advertisement matching. In one embodiment, a request for an advertisement to be displayed in a current web page that has been requested by a current user is received. The current user is associated with one or more current user characteristics from a plurality of different user characteristics, and the current web page has an associated content. A mapping model and the one or more current user characteristics are used to obtain a plurality of user-relevant terms for each of the one or more current user characteristics. A combination of the content of the current web page and obtained user-relevant terms are provided for selecting an advertisement for displaying with the current web page based on such combination.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00
G06F 15/18

US Classification:

705 1466, 706 12

Abstract:

A method for adaptive display of internet advertisements to look-alike users using a desired user profile dataset as a seed to machine learning modules. Upon availability of a desired user profile, that user profile is mapped other look-alike users (from a larger database of users). The method proceeds to normalize the desired user profile object, proceeds to normalize known user profile objects, then seeding a machine-learning training model with the normalized desired user profile object. A scoring engine uses the normalized user profiles for matching based on extracted features (i.e. extracted from the normalized user profile objects). Once look-alike users have been identified, the internet display system may serve advertisements to the look-alike users, and analyze look-alike users' behaviors for storing the predicted similar user profile objects into the desired user profile object dataset, thus adapting to changing user behavior.

US Classification:

210634, 2103216, 4352831, 422129

Abstract:

An apparatus for passive sorting of microdroplets including a main flow channel, a flow stream of microdroplets in the main flow channel wherein the microdroplets have substantially the same diameter and wherein the flow stream of microdroplets includes first microdroplets having a first degree of stiffness and second microdroplets having a second degree of stiffness wherein the second degree of stiffness is different than the first degree of stiffness. A second flow channel is connected to the main flow channel for the second microdroplets having a second degree of stiffness. A separator separates the second microdroplets having a second degree of stiffness from the first microdroplets and directs the second microdroplets having a second degree of stiffness into the second flow channel.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

Abstract:

The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains one or more metrics associated with user interaction with a set of content items in a member segment of a social network. Next, the system ranks the set of content items by the one or more metrics. The system then generates a content pool for the member segment based on the ranking of the content items. Finally, the system creates a content feed from the content pool for presentation to a user in the member segment.

Abstract:

The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains a set of content pools for a user, wherein each content pool in the set of content pools includes a set of content items associated with user activity in a member segment of a social network. Next, the system calculates a set of probabilities of clicking the content items in the content pool. The system then uses the probabilities to order the content items with other content items from other content pools into a content feed for the user. Finally, the system presents the content feed to the user.
