Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an automated approach for summarizing media content using descriptive information associated with the media content. For example and without limitation, the descriptive information may comprise a title associated with the media content. One or more segments of the media content may be identified to form a media content summary based on each segment's respective similarity to the descriptive information, which respective similarity may be determined using a media content and auxiliary data feature spaces. A shared dictionary of canonical patterns generated using the media content and auxiliary data feature spaces may be used in determining a media content segment's similarity to the descriptive information.
Abstract:
As provided herein, a first device may be registered as authorized to authenticate a user login into a service from a second device (e.g., a smart phone may be used to log the user into a webmail service on a computer without the user having to enter a password through the computer). Responsive to the user attempting to access the service through the second device, a login interface may be displayed on the first device. The user may confirm or deny that the user wants to log into the service on the second device, thus allowing the user to seamlessly log into the service on the second device (e.g., without entering a password) while mitigating unauthorized logins into the service from unknown devices. Further, the user may use the first device to delegate the authority to authenticate the user login into the service to one or more other devices.

Such identifiers allow systems to cache and reuse individual records of aggregate data. Also, such identifiers can facilitate simpler analytic views of aggregate data.
Abstract:
Method and system for advertisement coordination through online bidding are provided. In one example, a first bid request is received regarding a first advertisement opportunity. A first advertisement is determined for the first advertisement opportunity. A first online bid associated with the first advertisement is generated based on the first bid request. The first online bid is transmitted as a response to the first bid request. A second bid request is received regarding a second advertisement opportunity. The first and second advertisement opportunities are related to an online service. The user's behavior is obtained with respect to the first advertisement. A second advertisement is determined for the second advertisement opportunity based on the user's behavior with respect to the first advertisement. A second online bid associated with the second advertisement is generated. The second online bid is transmitted as a response to the second bid request.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and programs are provided to determine event-level traffic quality for event(s) related to user interaction with online content (e.g., via a webpage, a mobile application, etc.). Data related to a current user event and past user events may be received, where such data may include information regarding a set of entities associated with each respective user event. A feature value set for the current user event is generated based on the information regarding the respective sets of entities associated with the current user event and the past user events. Based at least on such feature value set, a traffic quality score for the current user event may be determined, e.g., based on a weighted combination of elements of the feature value set. An entity-level traffic quality score for an entity may be determined based on event-level traffic quality scores of user events that involve that entity.
