A press release distribution system provides press release and other news to forum sites as posts. The forum software that runs at forum sites includes press release interface software or is adapted to receive press release interface plug-in modules for interfacing with the press release distribution system. The press release interface software or plug-in module may also monitor and/or analyze user data of forum members and/or forum activities of the users. The monitored user data and forum activities may be provided to the press release distribution system for analysis and generation of user profiles. Using the result of the analysis (e.g., user profiles), the press release distribution system can target particular users or forums to direct the press releases, news, or advertisements for most effective advertising campaign.

Advertisements are often presented in the context of a media content viewing experience. Advertisement presentation may be intrusive or subtle. In many instances, users may be interested in particular advertisements but may not want to disrupt a media content viewing experience by launching an advertisement window, opening an advertisement application, or otherwise being redirected to another piece of content. Consequently, mechanisms are provided to allow a user to identify advertisements or save advertisement interests for presentation at a later time. Saved advertisement interests can be used to inform future advertisement and/or content suggestions, and the user can be presented with selected advertisements within an application or through external mechanisms.

Presented herein are systems and methods for automatically identifying and recommending purchases (e.g., in-app purchases) to a user based on the user's personal genetic profile. In certain embodiments, offers for such purchases are conveniently presented in the same software application (e.g., smartphone app or other computing device application) in which a user securely accesses his or her personalized genetic profile test results. Also presented herein are systems and methods for computer application developers to customize apps for presentation of recommended purchases based on a user's personal genetic profile. In certain embodiments, the systems and methods described herein provide for issuing of genetically tailored notifications to one or more mobile health devices of an individual based on an assessment of the individual's genetic profile. Such notifications, for example, can assist an individual in their adherence to particular recommended regiments, such as workout regimens.

A request for a page is received. A processor is used to provide an optimized version of the page at least in part by determining dynamically an optimized content element for the page based at least in part on a user attribute associated with the request and content performance data generated based at least in part on testing of alternative versions of the page with respect to other users having the user attribute. The provided optimized version of the page is selected from the alternative versions of the page based on the content performance data indicating that the selected version of the page is optimized for the other users having the user attribute.

Novel system, methods, which include machine learning, and device for providing color and fashion recommendations, including for persons with visual impairment such as color blindness or complete blindness. Also, methods providing a data storage system for storing digital renditions of garments; providing a portable communication device to extract color and/or pattern from garments through use of a camera and at least one algorithm; providing a processor capable of accessing locally stored and/or remote information about or learning the preferred matching set of garments; assigning each garment in the set of garments a red-green-blue (RGB) value; providing a suitability ranking for matching compatibility of the garment or the set of garments; and providing recommendations for preferred matching garment or set of garments by organizing the garments in at least one queue selected from the group consisting of audial, tactile, visual or a combination thereof, wherein the individual imports garments or set of garments, through a series of photos or video, for bulk import into a virtual closet for the identification and assignment of type of garments or set of garments using human or computational methods.

A client device can receive, from a data processing system, first data, the first data selected by the data processing system based on second data generated by at least one IoT device with which the client device is associated, and the first data indicating at least one advertisement. The client device can access the at least one advertisement using the first data indicating the at least one advertisement. The client device can add the at least one advertisement to the content accessed by the client device. The client device can present the content with the at least one advertisement added to the content.

Ad servers, live streaming systems and user devices that provide complementary advertisements to the viewers of live stream broadcasts are provided. The complementary advertisements relate to or complement an in-game advertisement present in the live streams. This allows for advertisements and advertising campaigns that are better targeted, more effective, and more easily monitored. Advertisements that are served may be better targeted, more effective and interactive. Techniques presented herein may reduce the computer resources required for advertising and increase public safety, for example, by avoiding children and minors being served advertisements for age restricted products.

Methods and apparatus to identify an emotion evoked by media are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a synthesizer to generate a first synthesized sample based on a pre-verbal utterance associated with a first emotion. A feature extractor is to identify a first value of a first feature of the first synthesized sample. The feature extractor to identify a second value of the first feature of first media evoking an unknown emotion. A classification engine is to create a model based on the first feature. The model is to establish a relationship between the first value of the first feature and the first emotion. The classification engine is to identify the first media as evoking the first emotion when the model indicates that the second value corresponds to the first value.

A method and system for continual audience synchronization receives user input corresponding to criteria to create a targeted list of people. The system receives user input corresponding to a request to synchronize the targeted list of people with a corresponding audience on each of a number of content delivery networks. The system processes updates to add or remove entries from the targeted list of people based on the one or more criteria. In response to processing the updates, the system accesses each of the content delivery networks, through appropriate application programming interfaces, to update each corresponding audience. When a visitor who matches an entry in the corresponding audience accesses a webpage associated with one of the content delivery networks, the content delivery network selects content associated with the corresponding audience to be presented to the visitor and presents the selected content to the visitor as part of the webpage.

A mobile wallet computing system associated with a mobile wallet database includes a mobile wallet circuit structured to present a mobile wallet interface a mobile wallet user. The mobile wallet interface includes a first portion that includes a graphical depiction of a user payment vehicle associated with a financial institution, the first portion including a first interaction point that enables the user to initiate a sequence to engage in a mobile wallet transaction using the mobile wallet. The interface also includes a second portion that includes a second interaction point and a third interaction point, the second interaction point enabling the user to access a functionality enabling the user to indicate a transaction preference for a transaction with an entity other than the mobile wallet provider or financial institution, the third interaction point enabling the user to indicate a preference to initiate communications with the financial institution.
