  • Heuristic Clustering

    Issued US 11836761

    A novel e-commerce system designed to enhance customer experience by categorizing them into various groups, or clusters, and customizing services according to their cluster placement. In one implementation, this e-commerce system establishes these clusters by analyzing the purchasing history of customers who possess an adequate amount of such data. For customers lacking sufficient purchase history data, the system assigns them to one of these predefined clusters based on their demographic…

    A novel e-commerce system designed to enhance customer experience by categorizing them into various groups, or clusters, and customizing services according to their cluster placement. In one implementation, this e-commerce system establishes these clusters by analyzing the purchasing history of customers who possess an adequate amount of such data. For customers lacking sufficient purchase history data, the system assigns them to one of these predefined clusters based on their demographic information and the demographics of customers already associated with the respective cluster.

  • Methods for managing operational data associated with connected devices based on policy

    Issued US 11094181B2

    This disclosure relates to the analysis of data generated by one or more connected systems and devices. Operational data obtained by one or more connected devices and/or systems, such as a connected thermostat and/or wind turbine system, may be used to detect and/or predict impending failures and/or suboptimal performance. By detecting and/or predicting anomalous system and device performance, various actions may be taken to improve system and device performance and mitigate failure conditions.

  • Heuristic Customer Clustering

    Issued US 10861054B2

    Methods and apparatus are disclosed regarding an e-commerce system that places customers into a plurality of clusters and tailors services provided to a customer based on the cluster in which the customer is placed. In one embodiment, the e-commerce system defines the clusters based on purchase history data for customers having sufficient purchase history data. The e-commerce system then places customers without sufficient purchase history data into one of the defined clusters based on…
