20120021008 | INJECTABLE AND MOLDABLE CERAMIC MATERIALS - Disclosed is an injectable and moldable ceramic material comprising porous calcium phosphate having surface-microporosity, and a water-free carrier, wherein the carrier is selected so as to disintegrate under physiological circumstances. The latter refers to the property of a carrier to dissolve, disassociate, or otherwise disintegrate after placement (e.g. through injection or implantation) into the human body. By selection of a water-free polymer or polymer blend which is combined with surface-microporous calcium phosphates, the favourable osteoinductive properties by virtue of the surface-microporosity can be retained for prolonged shelf life. | 01-26-2012 |

20120246209 | METHOD FOR CREATING A MARKOV PROCESS THAT GENERATES SEQUENCES - The present invention relates to a method for creating a Markov process that generates sequences. Each sequence has a finite length L, comprises items from a set of a specific number n of items, and satisfies one or more control constraints specifying one or more requirements on the sequence. The method comprises the steps of receiving data defining an initial Markov process of a specific order d and having an initial probability distribution and of receiving data defining one or more control constraints. The method further comprises the step of generating data defining intermediary matrices, each matrix being of dimension nd by n, by zeroing out transitions in the initial Markov process data that are forbidden by the one or more control constraints. | 09-27-2012 |

20110251988 | ADAPTIVE IMPLICIT LEARNING FOR RECOMMENDER SYSTEM - The present invention relates to an apparatus, method, and computer program product for controlling a recommender system, wherein user actions on content items are associated to explicit ratings on these content items and translated into a UI features profile, which is subsequently used by a recommender. This recommender rates new items based on user actions on this item and thus creates an implicitly learned rating history. This learning makes the implicit rating or scoring personalized. It can be combined in several ways with an explicitly learned rating history to improve overall performance and/or to mitigate the burden for the user, by having him/her rate less items explicitly. | 10-13-2011 |

20120116879 | AUTOMATIC INFORMATION SELECTION BASED ON INVOLVEMENT CLASSIFICATION - The present invention relates to an automatic selection or placement engine that, given an ancillary information belonging to a certain category, places it in a congruent or contrasting context depending on the degree of involvement of the user in that product category. User profiles are automatically classified as low or high user involvement in a certain category. | 05-10-2012 |
20150134476 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF A RECOMMENDATION - A device and a method for automatic generation of a recommendation for an item p to a user u. The device is at least indirectly connected to an item database containing a user profile database and a user interrelation database. A standard recommender engine accesses the item database and user profile database to calculate a score s(p,u) in a [0,1] interval indicating a “like” degree of an item p for user u based on a user profile of user u. The device further has a content discovery recommender to access the user interrelation database and to find at least users v that have a direct connection to user u to determine a fraction of the users v that know an item p and to generate a recommendation based on the score s(p,u) of item p. | 05-14-2015 |
20150296234 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EFFICIENTLY COMPILING MEDIA CONTENT ITEMS FOR A MEDIA-ON-DEMAND PLATFORM - For the negotiation of an operator of a media-on-demand platform with its content providers a method and system for efficiently compiling media content items for the media-on-demand platform is provided. The method makes use of a combination of a recommender system to select a suitable set of media content items to be offered for a next period of service and a number-of-rentals predictor for estimating how many videos individual users will rent the following period of service. Furthermore, the method and system can be executed for estimating profit or loss from rentals over the following period of service as well as estimate customer satisfaction. | 10-15-2015 |

20150019474 | INFLUENCE MAXIMIZATION WITH VIRAL PRODUCT DESIGN - The disclosure includes use of a feature-aware propagation model to identify one or more features of a product and one or more person(s), or members of a social network, to target, or user, for marketing the product having the identified features. The one or more person(s) identified using the model may be the person(s), or member(s), of a social network determined to have a maximum capability, relative to other members of the social network, for influencing the members of the social network in adopting, e.g., purchasing, a product having the identified features. In addition, parameters of the model may be determined using information about the social network, user preferences, and the products and features of the products. | 01-15-2015 |

20140337356 | Identifying Communities Within A Social Network Based on Information Propagation Data - Methods and systems for identifying communities based on information propagation data are described. One of the methods includes receiving a social graph, which includes nodes and relationships between the nodes. The method further includes receiving a number of the communities to find within the social graph, receiving data regarding propagation of information between the nodes, and calculating a probability of formation of a link between a first one of the nodes and a second one of the nodes based on the data. The link provides a direction of flow of media between the first and second nodes. The method includes calculating a probability that media will be accessed by the second node based on the data. One of the communities includes the first node, the second node, and the link. | 11-13-2014 |
20150134402 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NETWORK-OBLIVIOUS COMMUNITY DETECTION - Disclosed is a system and method for detecting online social communities through network-oblivious community detection techniques that involve modeling social contagion from a log of user activity. The log includes a dataset of tuples that record the instances when a user has adopted an item at a specific time. The disclose systems and methods then apply a stochastic framework that assumes that the adoptions of the item are governed by an underlying diffusion process over an unobserved social network, and that such diffusion model is based on community-level influence. By fitting the model parameters to the user activity log, community membership information and level of influence information can be derived for each user in each community. | 05-14-2015 |

20140154975 | Verifying a Wireless Device - In some aspects of what is described here, a first wireless device detects proximity of a second wireless device (e.g., by a Near Field Communication (NFC) interface or another type of interface). Based on detecting proximity of the second wireless device, the first wireless device generates a recommendation request from information received from the second wireless device. The first wireless device sends the recommendation request to a trusted authority and receives a response. The response includes the trusted authority's recommendation whether to trust the second wireless device. The first wireless device can determine whether to trust the second wireless device based on the recommendation. | 06-05-2014 |
