Systems and methods for private local sponsored content

Abstract

Systems and methods are shown for providing private local sponsored content selection and improving intelligence models through distribution among mobile devices. This allows greater data gathering capabilities through the use of the sensors of the mobile devices as well as data stored on data storage components of the mobile devices to create predicted models while offering better opportunities to preserve privacy. Locally stored profiles comprising machine intelligence models may also be used to determine the relevance of the data gathered and in improving an aggregated model for identifying the relevance of data and the selection of sponsored content items. Distributed optimization is used in conjunction with privacy techniques to create the improved machine intelligence models. Publishers may also benefit from the improved privacy by protecting the statistics of type or volume of sponsored content items shown with publisher content.
