Abstract: A method, executed by a processor, is used to determine presence of a viewer at a media device. The method includes receiving viewer biometric data captured by a biometric capture device associated with the media device; determining a category of the viewer based on the captured viewer biometric data; comparing the captured viewer biometric data to a reference to determine a possible identity of the viewer, by: determining a presence probability for the viewer based on a match between the biometric data and the reference, and determining a confidence level for the probability; and when the probability and confidence level equal or exceed a threshold, determining the viewer is present at the media device.

Abstract: A TV audience survey system for determining the TV viewing activities of a plurality of individuals in a household includes a master device and multiple tags, each tag assigned to an individual. After an individual logs into the system and starts watching the TV, the master device communicates with the corresponding tag repeatedly to accumulate data representing the individual's TV viewing activities. Such data can be used to determine when the individual stops watching the TV for an extended period of time without logging out of the system and when the household member remains watching the TV after logging or being logged out of the system. The master device then reports the accumulated data to a remote server, which uses the data to determine whether the individual complies with the logging protocol defined by the TV audience survey system and update the TV viewership data associated with this household.

Abstract: A processor-implemented method meters IP video streams. The processor implements a meter. The method includes detecting, by the processor, a video watch page; harvesting, by the processor, data from the video watch page; storing, by the processor, the harvested data as current page data; detecting, by the processor, a video play button operation indicating a video playing; and inferring, by the processor, the video playing correlates to a video referenced in the current page data.

Abstract: A system for probabilistic matching of audio sample from a television program includes a computer readable storage medium having encoded thereon an audio matching program; and a processor that executes the audio matching program. The processor receives reference audio for time slices corresponding to a broadcast television program for each of a plurality of channels broadcasting television programming; receives a first audio sample from a media device on which is displayed the broadcast television program; selects one or more candidate channels to test to determine a channel to which the media device is tuned; compares the first audio sample to the selected candidate channels to determine a match between the first audio sample and one or more of the selected candidate channels; and when the first audio sample matches a reference audio from a selected candidate channel, identifying, with a specified probability, the selected candidate channel as the tuned to channel.

Abstract: Based on the type of media consumed and when it is accessed, it is possible to identify times during which a particular user will likely be more receptive to particular types of related content. Aspects of the present disclosure, describe implementations that are configured to monitor media exposure and consumption of particular individuals using, for example, client device such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, or the like utilized primarily by one respective user. In some implementations, related content is then provided to a particular user when that user is more likely to be responsive to the related content based on media exposure and consumption patterns derived from usage patterns of the respective client device

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed a data processing system for authenticating packetized audio signals in a voice activated computer network environment. The data processing system can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of auditory data packet transmission over one or more computer networks by, for example, disabling malicious transmissions prior to their transmission across the network. The present solution can also improve computational efficiency by disabling remote computer processes possibly affected by or caused by the malicious audio signal transmissions. By disabling the transmission of malicious audio signals, the system can reduce bandwidth utilization by not transmitting the data packets carrying the malicious audio signal across the networks.
