Abstract:
Techniques for projecting person-level viewership from household-level tuning events are described. Initially, panelist viewing data are accessed and a plurality of state values based on the panelist viewing data are determined. Then, tuning data representing tuning events associated with particular households are accessed. For at least one tuning event represented by the tuning data, household member data is accessed, a portion of the panelist viewing data whose panelist information matches at least a portion of the member data is determined, a total number of watched minutes of the program by an individual member and a number of continuous series of watched states of the program by the individual member is determined, and an output representative of a probability that the particular portion of the program was watched by one or more of the individual members is generated.

Claim (Index 13):
A device comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing computer executable instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the device to perform operations comprising:\n accessing tuning data representing tuning events associated with particular households, each tuning event in the tuning data including an identification of a particular program associated with the tuning event and a household minutes value representing a number of minutes the particular program was played at a particular household in association with the tuning event; accessing panelist viewing data representing viewing events associated with panelists, each viewing event in the panelist viewing data including an identification of a program associated with the viewing event and a panelist minutes value representing a number of minutes a panelist was exposed to the program during the viewing event; determining, based on the panelist viewing data, a plurality of state values, each of the state values corresponding to a particular portion of the program and representing whether the program was watched or not watched for the particular portion by a given one of the panelists, wherein the plurality of state values comprise a state value indicating that the program was watched for a particular portion of the program and another state value indicating that the program was not watched for another particular portion of the program; and for at least one tuning event represented by the tuning data:\n accessing household member data identifying one or more individual members of a household associated with the tuning event; \n determining a portion of the panelist viewing data whose panelist information matches at least a portion of the member data of the one or more individual members; \n determining, for each of the individual members of the household, a total number of watched minutes of the program by the individual member and a number of continuous series of watched states of the program by the individual member; and \n generating, based on the total number of watched minutes and the number of continuous series of watched states of the program, an output representative of a probability that the particular portion of the program was watched by one or more of the individual members.
