CPC G06Q 30/0201 (2013.01) [G06F 16/215 (2019.01); G06F 16/2246 (2019.01); G06F 16/24558 (2019.01); H04N 21/44213 (2013.01); H04N 21/812 (2013.01)] | 28 Claims |
1. An apparatus comprising:
interface circuitry to collect, via a network, impression data indicative of accesses to a plurality of media items for a total audience size, the impression data including audience sizes for the plurality of media items, the total audience size including a computer-generated inaccuracy causing a misrepresentation of a deduplicated audience size of the plurality of media items;
association controller circuitry to generate a tree structure association for the total audience size that accessed the plurality of media items, the tree structure association including a first node representative of a first media item accessed by first audience members of the total audience size and a second node representative of a second media item accessed by second audience members of the total audience size;
matrix generator circuitry to improve functionality of a computer by generating a matrix without using processing power to solve a partial derivative equation for the first node or the second node, the matrix generator circuitry to generate the matrix by:
selecting a sum of probabilities value corresponding to the tree structure association, the sum of probabilities value representative of a probability of the first audience members accessing the first media item; and
storing the sum of probabilities value in an element of the matrix; and
commercial solver circuitry to increase an accuracy of the computer to reduce the computer-generated inaccuracy of the total audience size by estimating the deduplicated audience size of the total audience size using the matrix.
