Abstract

Methods and systems for content optimization are described. A computing device may determine a predictability score that indicates a probability that a device will access a first content item. The computing device may send a second content item associated with the first content item. The second content item may be based on the predictability score, and the predictability score may be modified. Additional content consumption and/or recommendations may be adjusted based on the predictability score.

Abstract

Systems, methods, and devices relating to determining viewership data are described herein. In a method, viewing data associated with a household is received. A first portion of the viewing data is indicative of video programming associated with a first video device and a second portion of the viewing data is indicative of video programming associated with a second video device. One or more characteristics associated with the first and second portions of the viewing data are determined. Based on the one or more characteristics and a comparison of the respective video programming associated with the first and second video devices, it is determined that the first portion of the viewing data is duplicative, at least in part, with the second portion of the viewing data.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for determining viewership of a content item are described herein. Machine learning techniques may be used to determine which user(s) among a user group at a multi-user location is consuming a content item. A machine learning model may be trained using demographic attributes and content attributes associated with a plurality of single-user locations. A probability engine may train a machine learning model using the demographic attributes and content attributes and one or more machine learning algorithms. The trained machine learning model may be used to determine which user(s) among at least two users is consuming a content item at a multi-user location at which multiple people reside.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for content viewership statistic adjustment are described herein. Content viewership data is analyzed. A start time and an end time of a delivery of a content item in a content viewing session is determined based on the analysis. A false positive viewing event is determined based on a comparison between a viewing characteristic of the content viewing session and a threshold. The determined false positive viewing event is removed from a viewership statistic.
