Quality Scoring System for Internet Advertising Loci
An Internet advertising locus scoring system including a locus metrics database, a locus parameters database, a scoring engine and a system controller coupled to the locus metrics database, the locus parameters database and the scoring engine. The locus metrics database and the locus parameters database may be at least partially linked and may be at least partially distributed. In an embodiment, the scoring engine may include a weight function operating on at least some of the locus metrics.
1 . An internet advertising locus scoring system comprising:
a locus metrics database;
a locus parameters database;
a scoring engine; and
a system controller coupled to said locus metrics database, said locus parameters database and said scoring engine.
2 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 1 wherein said locus metrics database and said locus parameters database are at least partially linked.
3 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 1 wherein at least one of said locus metrics database and said locus parameters database is at least partially distributed.
4 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 1 wherein said scoring engine includes a weight function operating on at least some of said locus metrics.
5 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 4 wherein said weight function is a weighted sum function.
6 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 4 wherein said weight function is a weighted average function.
7 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 4 wherein said weighted function includes weight coefficients derived from said locus parameters database.
8 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 4 wherein said weighted function is implemented by a neural network.
9 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 4 further comprising a scoring database coupled to said system controller.
10 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 9 wherein at least two of said scoring database, said locus metrics database and said locus parameters database are at least partially linked.
11 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 9 wherein at least one of said scoring database, said locus metrics database and said locus parameters database is at least partially distributed.
12 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 9 further comprising a report generator coupled to said system controller.
13 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 12 wherein said report generator produces a ranked list of advertising loci.
14 . An internet advertising locus scoring system as recited in claim 13 wherein said ranked list is associated with a demographic profile.
15 . A method for ranking internet advertising loci comprising:
obtaining for a plurality of internet advertising locus a plurality of locus metrics and a plurality of locus parameters;
generating a plurality of scores associated with said plurality of internet advertising locus; and
ranking at least a subset of said plurality of internet advertising locus based upon said plurality of scores.
16 . A method for ranking internet advertising loci as recited in claim 15 wherein generating said plurality of scores includes a weight function operating on at least some of said locus metrics.
17 . A method for ranking internet advertising loci as recited in claim 16 wherein said weight function is at least one of a weighted sum function and a weighted average function.
