摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to rectify false set top box tuning data. Disclosed examples methods include identifying, by executing an instruction with a processor, in the return path data, first tuning data corresponding to a first group of set top boxes, the first group of set top boxes classified as associated with machine events, determining, by executing an instruction with a processor, a ratio between first tuning events in the return path data and second tuning events in the return path data, the first tuning events attributed to the first group of the set top boxes, the second tuning events attributed to a second group of the set top boxes classified at not associated with machine events, and in response to the ratio satisfying a threshold during a time interval, removing second tuning data associated with the time interval from the first tuning data.

摘要: An example apparatus includes processor circuitry to: access first input data from meters, the meters to monitor media devices associated with a plurality of panelists, the first input data including media source data and panel data; reduce a dimensionality of the first input data to generate second input data of reduced dimensionality relative to the first input data, the dimensionality of the first input data to be reduced based on a prior probability of an audience rating associated with the plurality of panelists and an approximation of a dependency of the audience rating on at least one of the media source data and the panel data; and decode the second input data of reduced dimensionality to output a probability model parameter for a multivariate probability model, the multivariate probability model having dimensions corresponding to the first input data, the multivariate probability model to label census data.

摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to rectify false set top box tuning data. Disclosed examples methods include identifying in return path data a first group of set top boxes classified as likely to exhibit machine events in tuning data of the return path data more frequently than a second group of set top boxes represented in the return path data. Additionally, in some examples, the method includes determining whether the first group of set top boxes includes a machine event based on a pattern of the tuning data in the return path data for respective ones of the first group of set top boxes and improving an accuracy of return path data by rectifying the machine event.

摘要: Example methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) to perform probabilistic modeling for anonymized data integration and measurement of sparse and weakly-labeled datasets are disclosed. An apparatus includes a training controller to train a neural network to produce a trained neural network to output model parameters of a probability model, a model evaluator to execute the trained neural network on input data specifying a time of day, a media source, and at least one feature different from the time of day and the media source to determine one or more first model parameters of the probability model, and a ratings metric generator to evaluate the probability model based on input census data to determine a ratings metric corresponding to the time of day, the media source, and the at least one feature, the probability model configured with the one or more first model parameters.
