20120284100 | METHODS FOR FACILITATING ADVERTISING AND COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS - Methods of communicating for advertising and for facilitating commercial transactions between businesses and consumers. Said methods are enabled by a software application that allows a consumer to dispatch an offer request to a service provider, wherein the offer request specifies an amount of money that the consumer intends to spend on a particular product category and a geographic area in which the consumer intends to make a purchase. The service provider then communicates the offer request to a plurality of businesses that offer the specified product category and that are located within the specified geographic area. If the offer request satisfies certain criteria established by one or more of the businesses, those businesses will issue offers that advertise special deals and discounts to the consumer. Such offers are generated using a software application. The consumer can then accept and redeem any of the offers that the consumer finds attractive. | 11-08-2012 |

20110066650 | QUERY CLASSIFICATION USING IMPLICIT LABELS - Described is a technology for automatically generating labeled training data for training a classifier based upon implicit information associated with the data. For example, whether a query has commercial intent can be classified based upon whether the query was submitted at a commercial website's search portal, as logged in a toolbar log. Positive candidate query-related data is extracted from the toolbar log based upon the associated implicit information. A click log is processed to obtain negative query-related data. The labeled training data is automatically generated by separating at least some of the positive candidate query data from the remaining positive candidate query data based upon the negative query data. The labeled training data may be used to train a classifier, such as to classify an online search query as having a certain type of intent or not. | 03-17-2011 |

20130339146 | COMPENSATION MODEL FOR NETWORK SERVICES - A compensation model is disclosed for compensating a network service provider. A networked system is also disclosed for presenting advertising during on-line interactions between a user and a service of a network (e.g., the Internet, interactive cable, and/or a LAN). Advertisements (ads) are presented to a networked user unrequestedly during user interactions with the service. The user can activate the ads (via hyperlinks) for receiving additional advertising. The system gathers user data and/or develops user profiles for selectively presenting ads, promotionals, discounts, etc. targeted to receptive users. In exchange for viewing such selective presentations, on-line access to the service is provided, the service including, e.g., (a) playing on-line interactive games (e.g., blackjack and poker), (b) providing access to the network itself (e.g., an Internet service provider), and/or (c) providing access to substantially any interactive service accessible via (b). The system can provide free/reduced cost network services to the user for viewing unrequested advertising. The system can be provided for a casino. | 12-19-2013 |

20100311602 | Sequencing method - The present invention relates, e.g., to a method for isolating a DNA molecule of interest in a form suitable for sequencing at least a portion of the DNA by a high throughput sequencing method, comprising (a) digesting a double-stranded (ds) DNA molecule with two different restriction enzymes, A and B, to generate a ds form of the DNA molecule of interest, which is bounded by the two restriction enzyme cleavage products, and (b) attaching to each end of the DNA molecule of interest an adaptor molecule which comprises at one end a restriction enzyme cleavage site that is compatible with the restriction enzyme A or the restriction enzyme B cleavage product, and which also comprises a sequence and/or element that allows the DNA of interest to be sequenced with a high throughput sequencing apparatus. The method can be adapted for sequencing DNA with a variety of high throughput sequencing apparatuses, including machines manufactured by the 454, Illumina (Solexa Sequencing technology) and ABI (SOLiD™ Sequencing technology) companies. A method is also described for sequencing regulatory elements within a cell, comprising subjecting a collection of ds DNA molecules that are enriched for regulatory elements and that are generated by digestion with two restriction enzymes, A and B, which generate sticky ends, to an isolation method of the invention, and sequencing the collection of ds DNA molecules with a high throughput sequencing apparatus. | 12-09-2010 |
