Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a system providing group recommendations, event scheduling, and forming consensus agreements among a group of disparately located users are provided by the present principles. Communication among the disparately located users may be achieved through social media tools, online polling, chatting, and texting. The methods and apparatus allow a user profile to be constructed based on ratings that a user provides to items in a database. The items may comprise such things as restaurants, movie theaters, or other entertainment and group activities. The items may comprise feature vectors including attributes of the individual items. With user profiles constructed, the methods and apparatus may allow prediction of a rating that an individual with a particular user profile may give to a similar item in a database. The system may be used to predict the best choice for a group activity by considering the ratings of all users within a group. Individual ratings may be weighted to give higher or lower priority to some users. The system may also recommend activities based on the users participating in the group, or allow the users to select other activities to be considered. In one exemplary embodiment, the system selects recommendations for the users, comprising elements such as movie title, theater location, seating, and prices. The system sends notifications to the users, collects preferences from the users, and determines a choice based on the collected preferences. The users are notified of the choice and given an opportunity to purchase tickets electronically. If so, they may receive electronic tickets, coupons, promotions, or offers.

Abstract: The present systems and methods provide a mechanism to assess viewer behavior, features of stimuli, and the interaction between viewer behavior and stimuli. The systems and methods described herein for quantifying blink response and blink inhibition provide moment-by-moments measurements of viewer engagement by measuring what is or is not engaging enough to warrant viewers' inhibition of blinking. The present disclosure describes measures of visual scanning, eye movements, blink data, and blink timing data to derive a measure of how engaged a person is with what he or she is looking at. Blink-related data as a measure of viewer engagement provides a mechanism for determining the most engaging spatial and temporal aspects of a stimulus.

Abstract: An integrated circuit for implementing at least a portion of a personal audio device is disclosed. The integrated circuit comprises an output adapted to provide a signal to a transducer including both source audio for playback to a listener and an anti-noise signal for countering the effects of ambient audio sounds in an acoustic output of the transducer. A reference microphone input receives a reference microphone signal indicative of the ambient audio sounds. Further, an analog-to-digital converter (41A) converts the reference microphone signal to a first reference microphone signal digital representation and a first sigma-delta quantizer (43A) quantizes the first digital representation to generate a lowered resolution second reference microphone signal digital representation. A processing circuit of the integrated circuit implements an adaptive filter (44A, 44B) having a response that generates the anti-noise signal from the lowered resolution second reference microphone signal digital representation to reduce the presence of the ambient audio sounds heard by the listener. The processing circuit implements a coefficient control block that shapes the response of the adaptive filter (44A, 44B) in conformity with the reference microphone signal by adapting the response of the adaptive filter (44A, 44B).
