具体实施方式detailed description
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without departing from the inventive scope are the scope of the present application.
在基于互联网的信息推送技术中,在线的推送信息的展示服务(比如在线广告的展示)可以通过保证流量(即曝光数量)的订单来实现。其中,负责展示推送信息的媒体方(Publisher,也称为供应方SSP)向需求方(如广告主Advertiser)保证预定数量的满足订单定向(targeting predicates)的曝光。这里,所谓定向描述了该订单对应的推送信息的目标受众特征,推送信息向用户的一次展示被称为一次曝光。在信息推送阶段,需要基于当前的流量预估结果来选择准备曝光的 订单并确定给各待曝光的订单分配多少曝光量。例如:在每千人成本(CPM,Cost Per Impressions)合约广告体系中最核心的问题是如何分配可供售卖的广告曝光,即对一组具有合约量和受众定向约束的订单在给定的预估流量下,对每个订单按照其受众定向约束和需求量分配广告流量,使得所有订单的不缺量或整体缺量最小,其中,不缺量指订单的频控要求内的投放次数都被投放,整体缺量最小指所有订单的缺量整体达到最小。In the Internet-based information push technology, the online push information display service (such as the display of online advertisements) can be realized by an order that guarantees the flow (ie, the number of exposures). Among them, the media party (Publisher, also known as the supplier SSP) responsible for displaying the push information guarantees a predetermined number of exposures that satisfy the targeting predicates to the demanding party (such as the advertiser Advertiser). Here, the orientation describes the target audience characteristics of the push information corresponding to the order, and an impression of the push information to the user is referred to as an exposure. In the information push phase, it is necessary to select an order to be exposed based on the current traffic estimation result and determine how much exposure is to be assigned to each order to be exposed. For example, the core issue in the CPM (Cost Per Impressions) contract advertising system is how to allocate an available ad exposure, that is, a set of orders with contractual and audience targeting constraints. Under the estimated traffic, each order is allocated advertising traffic according to its audience targeting constraints and demand, so that all orders are not lacking or the overall deficiency is the smallest, wherein no shortage refers to the number of times within the frequency control request of the order is Delivery, the overall lack of minimum means that the total deficiencies of all orders are the smallest.
图1A为本申请实例涉及的系统构架图。如图1A所示,该系统至少包括:流量预估模块101,流量分配模块102,推送服务器103及数据模块104。FIG. 1A is a structural diagram of a system involved in an example of the present application. As shown in FIG. 1A, the system includes at least a traffic estimation module 101, a traffic distribution module 102, a push server 103, and a data module 104.
详细的系统架构图如图1B所示,所述系统架构包括推送服务器103、DSP103及客户端105及流量分配服务器107,其中,流量分配服务器107包括流量预估模块101、流量分配模块102及数据模块104,流量分配服务器107用以确定订单的流量分配比例。其中,流量分配服务器107、推送服务器103、DSP106及客户端105通过互联网连接。其中,所述客户端可以为终端设备上的应用客户端,例如,社交应用APP、浏览器等。上述终端设备可以为诸如手机、平板、掌上电脑、可穿戴设备等便携式终端设备,也可以为台式机、笔记本电脑等PC,也可以为智能电视等各种具有互联网访问能力和展示界面的智能设备。A detailed system architecture diagram is shown in FIG. 1B. The system architecture includes a push server 103, a DSP 103, and a client 105 and a traffic distribution server 107. The traffic distribution server 107 includes a traffic estimation module 101, a traffic distribution module 102, and data. Module 104, traffic distribution server 107 is used to determine the traffic distribution ratio of the order. The traffic distribution server 107, the push server 103, the DSP 106, and the client 105 are connected via the Internet. The client may be an application client on the terminal device, for example, a social application APP, a browser, or the like. The terminal device may be a portable terminal device such as a mobile phone, a tablet, a palmtop computer, a wearable device, a PC such as a desktop computer or a notebook computer, or a smart device having an Internet access capability and a display interface, such as a smart TV. .
在互联网中,各个用户通过客户端105访问一些网站,比如:浏览网页或者观看在线视频等,其中,在客户端105上展示的媒体资源上存在用以展示推送信息的展示位,当客户端105上展示媒体资源时,客户端105向推送服务器103发送推送请求。推送请求中携带受众用户的标识及展示位信息,推送服务器103(例如:用于投放互联网广告的广告服务器)接收到推送请求后,将推送请求发送给流量分配服务器107,流量分配服务器107根据推送请求中的用户标识获取用户的特征标签,根据用户的特征标签及展示位信息将推送请求匹配到一个供应节点,进 而确定与该供应节点定向匹配的一个或多个订单。流量分配服务器107返回所述定向节点对于各订单的流量分配比例。推送服务器103根据所述一个或多个订单中各订单的流量分配比例选取订单,将选取的订单发送给DSP106,接收DSP106反馈的订单发送给对应用户的客户端105进行展示。推送服务器103还将推送数据发送给数据模块104作为历史曝光数据保存,将推送数据发送给流量分配模块102,使流量分配模块更新各订单当前的预订量。In the Internet, each user accesses some websites through the client 105, such as browsing a webpage or watching an online video, etc., wherein a display space for displaying push information exists on the media resource displayed on the client 105, when the client 105 When the media resource is displayed, the client 105 sends a push request to the push server 103. The push request carries the identifier of the audience user and the display bit information, and the push server 103 (for example, the advertisement server for placing the Internet advertisement) receives the push request, sends the push request to the traffic distribution server 107, and the traffic distribution server 107 pushes according to the push. The user identifier in the request acquires the feature tag of the user, and matches the push request to a supply node according to the feature tag and the display bit information of the user, thereby determining one or more orders that are aligned with the supply node. The traffic distribution server 107 returns the traffic distribution ratio of the directed node for each order. The push server 103 selects an order according to the traffic distribution ratio of each order in the one or more orders, and sends the selected order to the DSP 106, and the order received by the receiving DSP 106 is sent to the client 105 of the corresponding user for display. The push server 103 also sends the push data to the data module 104 as historical exposure data, and transmits the push data to the traffic distribution module 102, so that the traffic distribution module updates the current subscription amount of each order.
流量预估模块101可以根据从数据模块104获取的历史曝光数据对各供应节点的流量进行预估得到各供应节点的预估的流量,流量分配模块102根据接收的来自推送服务器103的曝光请求(也称为推送请求),获得定向与该曝光请求相符的供应节点,进而确定定向与所述供应节点相符的订单。所述流量分配模块102还接收来自流量预估模块101的预估的各供应节点的流量,计算上述订单的流量分配比例,并将所述流量分配比例发送给推送服务器103,推送服务器103可以根据流量分配比例对这些订单进行选单处理,基于选单结果可以提供信息推送的服务(例如:广告服务器可以根据选单结果进行后续的广告推送的流程)。The traffic estimation module 101 may estimate the traffic of each supply node according to the historical exposure data acquired from the data module 104 to obtain the estimated traffic of each supply node, and the traffic distribution module 102 according to the received exposure request from the push server 103 ( Also referred to as a push request, a supply node that is directed to match the exposure request is obtained, thereby determining an order that is aligned with the supply node. The traffic distribution module 102 further receives the estimated traffic of each of the supply nodes from the traffic estimation module 101, calculates a traffic distribution ratio of the order, and sends the traffic distribution ratio to the push server 103, and the push server 103 can The traffic distribution ratio performs a menu processing for these orders, and can provide information push services based on the menu results (for example, the process in which the advertisement server can perform subsequent advertisement push according to the menu results).
在一些实例中,流量预估模块101和流量分配模块102基于一种库存模型来预估流量并完成流量分配。此库存模型描述了每个供应节点(supply node)及其对应的预估流量,其中,一个供应节点(也称为一个流量单元)可以为对应一个定向条件下的曝光,该供应节点对应的预估流量为该供应节点对应的定向条件下的预估曝光量,供应节点的各种信息是根据历史曝光数据确定的(可以通过统计得到或者通过方法预估)。此外,一个订单也可由一个需求节点(demand node)来表征,一个需求节点对应该订单的定向以及需求量(即该订单的预订量)。In some examples, traffic estimation module 101 and traffic distribution module 102 estimate traffic and complete traffic distribution based on an inventory model. This inventory model describes each supply node and its corresponding estimated traffic. One supply node (also called a flow unit) can be exposed under a corresponding orientation condition. The estimated flow rate is the estimated exposure amount under the orientation condition corresponding to the supply node, and various information of the supply node is determined according to the historical exposure data (can be obtained by statistics or estimated by a method). In addition, an order can also be characterized by a demand node, which corresponds to the ordering of the order and the demand quantity (ie, the order quantity of the order).
图2示出了供应节点和需求节点之间的关系。其中,供应节点有6个,它们有各自的定向信息以及库存量(也称为预估流量),需求 节点有N个,它们有各自的定向及需求量(也称订单的流量预订量)。比如:供应节点1的定向信息(也称为用户维度信息)为{北京,体育},代表来自北京的访问体育频道的用户,其对应的预估流量为8M,代表具有这种定向信息{北京,体育}的用户访问次数(即根据历史曝光数据统计出的曝光机会数量,也称为曝光数量)为8M。需求节点1的定向为{体育},代表访问体育频道的用户,其对应的预订量为15M,代表希望保证对应订单向访问体育频道的用户曝光的次数为15M。如图2所示,对于具有连线的任一对供应节点和需求节点,该供应节点的定向信息与需求节点的定向相符,可以考虑向该供应节点对应的用户曝光该需求节点对应的订单。关于具体如何将各供应节点的流量分配给各需求节点,且能满足需求节点的定向约束及预订量要求是信息推送中的关键问题。Figure 2 shows the relationship between the supply node and the demand node. Among them, there are 6 supply nodes, they have their own orientation information and inventory quantity (also called estimated traffic), and there are N demand nodes, which have their own orientation and demand quantity (also called the order traffic volume). For example, the orientation information (also called user dimension information) of the supply node 1 is {Beijing, Sports}, which represents the user who visits the sports channel from Beijing, and the corresponding estimated traffic is 8M, which means that there is such orientation information {Beijing , the number of user visits (ie, the number of exposures counted based on historical exposure data, also known as the number of exposures) is 8M. The orientation of the demand node 1 is {sports}, which represents the user who accesses the sports channel, and the corresponding subscription amount is 15M, which means that the number of times the corresponding order is required to be exposed to the user who accesses the sports channel is 15M. As shown in FIG. 2, for any pair of supply nodes and demand nodes with connections, the orientation information of the supply node is consistent with the orientation of the demand node, and it may be considered to expose the order corresponding to the demand node to the user corresponding to the supply node. It is a key issue in information push to specifically allocate the traffic of each supply node to each demand node, and to meet the orientation constraints and reservation quantity requirements of the demand nodes.
在一些实例中,通过基于最优化模型的流量分配方案来进行流量的分配,但其并未考虑频次控制,无法直接应用于有频次要求的信息推送订单的推送。在另一些实例中,利用频次比模型进行流量分配,其只应用于启发式方法HWM模型,利用频次比模块进行流量分配的分配结果不是最优的。In some instances, traffic distribution is performed through a traffic distribution scheme based on an optimization model, but it does not consider frequency control and cannot be directly applied to push of information push orders with frequency requirements. In other examples, the frequency ratio model is used for traffic distribution, which is only applied to the heuristic method HWM model, and the allocation result of the traffic allocation using the frequency ratio module is not optimal.
基于上述技术问题,本申请提出一种推送信息订单的流量分配方法,该方法可应用于流量分配服务器107,具体可应用于流量分配模块102。在一实例中,如图3所示,该方法包括以下步骤:Based on the above technical problem, the present application provides a traffic distribution method for pushing information orders, which can be applied to the traffic distribution server 107, and is specifically applicable to the traffic distribution module 102. In an example, as shown in FIG. 3, the method includes the following steps:
步骤301:获取各订单的信息,所述信息包括订单的定向信息及频次要求。Step 301: Acquire information of each order, where the information includes orientation information and frequency requirements of the order.
需求方与媒体方(也称为供应方)达成一订单时,该订单中描述有媒体方与需求方约定好的目标受众特征,即该订单的定向信息。需求方与媒体方还会对一订单的预定曝光数量进行约定。例如订单的定向为{体育},代表定向到访问体育频道的用户,其对应的预订量为15M,代表希望保证对应订单向访问体育频道的用户曝光的次数为15M。订 单的信息中还包括该订单对频次的要求,即该订单要求的在固定时间内对该订单的曝光次数。此外订单的信息中还包括该订单的重要度以及该订单对于未能曝光的流量的罚款单价。When the demand side and the media side (also known as the supplier) reach an order, the order describes the target audience characteristics agreed by the media party and the demand side, that is, the orientation information of the order. The demand side and the media side also agree on the predetermined number of exposures for an order. For example, the order orientation is {Sports}, which means that the user who is directed to access the sports channel has a corresponding booking amount of 15M, which means that the number of times the corresponding order is required to be exposed to the user who accesses the sports channel is 15M. The order information also includes the frequency requirement for the order, which is the number of exposures required for the order within a fixed time period required by the order. In addition, the order information includes the importance of the order and the unit price of the order for the unexposure traffic.
步骤302:针对每一订单,确定与该订单的所述定向信息相符的各供应节点,并确定在满足该订单的所述频次要求的情况下,其中每一供应节点对于该订单的期望流量分配比例。Step 302: For each order, determine each supply node that matches the orientation information of the order, and determine the expected traffic distribution of the order for each of the supply nodes if the frequency requirement of the order is met. proportion.
在执行上述步骤302时,执行针对每一订单,确定与该订单的所述定向信息相符的各供应节点,根据所述订单的频次要求确定所述各供应节点对于该订单的频次比,所述频次比表征各供应节点提供的流量中可用于所述订单的流量占比;根据所述各供应节点对于该订单的频次比确定每一供应节点对于所述订单的期望流量分配比例,其中,所述期望流量分配比例用以表征所述订单的预定量与各供应节点提供的流量中可用于所述订单的流量的总和的占比。例如,当一个订单的预定量为10次时,各供应节点可用于投放所述订单的流量的总和为20次,则可以将10/20的值作为所述期望流量分配比例。When performing the above step 302, performing, for each order, determining each supply node that matches the orientation information of the order, and determining a frequency ratio of the each supply node to the order according to the frequency requirement of the order, The frequency ratio represents a proportion of the traffic available to the order in the traffic provided by each of the supply nodes; determining, according to the frequency ratio of each of the supply nodes, the expected traffic distribution ratio of each of the supply nodes to the order, wherein The desired traffic distribution ratio is used to characterize the ratio of the predetermined amount of the order to the sum of the traffic available to the order among the flows provided by each supply node. For example, when the predetermined amount of an order is 10 times, the sum of the flows that each supply node can use to place the order is 20 times, then a value of 10/20 can be used as the desired traffic distribution ratio.
对于每一个订单,确定与该订单的所述定向信息相符的各供应节点。例如在图2中,对于定向为{体育}的订单,与该订单的定向信息相符的供应节点为供应节点1、2、3。计算定向信息与所述订单相符的各供应节点对应该订单的期望流量分配比例,期望流量分配比例通过所述订单的流量预订量以及该订单在每个供应节点处的可用流量来获得。For each order, each supply node that matches the orientation information for the order is determined. For example, in Figure 2, for an order oriented {sports}, the supply nodes that match the orientation information for the order are supply nodes 1, 2, 3. Calculating the ratio of the desired traffic distribution of each of the supply nodes corresponding to the order with respect to the order, the expected traffic distribution ratio being obtained by the traffic reservation amount of the order and the available traffic of the order at each supply node.
具体地,根据订单的频次要求确定各供应节点对于该订单的频次比,所述频次比表征各供应节点提供的流量中可用于所述订单的流量占比。例如,一个订单固定时间内的频次要求为3次,与该订单定向匹配的一个供应节点的预估的流量为10次,可用以所述订单的流量为3次,则该供应节点对于该订单的频次比为0.3。进而根据各供应节点对于订单的频次比确定各供应节点对于所述订单的期望流量分配比例。为订单 分配流量,即将订单的预定量平均分配到可用流量上,然而在实际的流量分配中,各供需节点还要满足一些约束条件,实际的流量分配比例与所述期望流量分配比例会有出入,但可使得实际的流量分配比例与期望流量分配比例的偏差达到最小。所述可用流量为考虑了订单的频次要求后,各供应节点处可用来展示该订单的流量。Specifically, the frequency ratio of each supply node to the order is determined according to the frequency requirement of the order, and the frequency ratio represents a proportion of the traffic available to the order among the flows provided by each supply node. For example, the frequency requirement of a fixed order time is 3 times, the estimated flow rate of a supply node matching the order orientation is 10 times, and the flow rate of the order can be used 3 times, then the supply node is for the order. The frequency ratio is 0.3. Further, according to the frequency ratio of each supply node to the order, the expected traffic distribution ratio of each supply node to the order is determined. Allocating traffic for the order, that is, the predetermined amount of the order is evenly distributed to the available traffic. However, in the actual traffic distribution, each supply and demand node also needs to meet some constraints, and the actual traffic distribution ratio may differ from the expected traffic distribution ratio. However, the deviation between the actual flow distribution ratio and the expected flow distribution ratio can be minimized. The available traffic is used to display the traffic of the order at each supply node after considering the frequency requirement of the order.
步骤303:对于任一订单,根据与该订单的所述定向信息相符的每一供应节点对于该订单的所述期望流量分配比例,确定在满足该订单的所述频次要求以及流量供需约束条件的情况下,所述相符的每一供应节点对于该订单的供推送服务器选单使用的流量分配比例。Step 303: For any order, determining, according to the expected traffic distribution ratio of the order for each of the supply nodes corresponding to the orientation information of the order, determining the frequency requirement of the order and the flow supply and demand constraints In the case, each of the matching supply nodes allocates a proportion of the traffic used by the push server menu for the order.
在执行上述步骤303时,执行对于任一订单,根据与该订单的所述定向信息相符的每一供应节点对于该订单的所述期望流量分配比例及所述频次比,确定每一供应节点对于该订单的流量分配比例,将供应节点对于各订单的流量分配比例发送给推送服务器,以使推送服务器根据所述流量分配比例进行选单处理。When performing the above step 303, performing, for any order, determining, for each of the supply nodes, the ratio of the desired traffic distribution for the order and the frequency ratio of each of the supply nodes that match the orientation information of the order The traffic distribution ratio of the order is sent to the push server by the supply node for the traffic distribution ratio of each order, so that the push server performs the menu processing according to the traffic distribution ratio.
在确定订单的实际流量分配比例时,需要考虑需求约束条件、供给约束条件、频控约束条件以及非负约束条件,在满足这些约束条件的情况下,求解与期望流量分配比例的偏差达到最小情况下的流量分配比例。When determining the actual flow distribution ratio of the order, it is necessary to consider the demand constraint condition, the supply constraint condition, the frequency control constraint condition and the non-negative constraint condition. Under the condition that these constraints are met, the deviation between the solution and the expected flow distribution ratio is minimized. The proportion of traffic distribution under.
采用本申请提供的推送信息订单的流量分配方法,基于供应节点的预估流量,求解考虑频控条件下的流量分配比例,能够适用于有频控要求的推送信息订单,使得频控条件下的订单投放更加合理,降低了订单的补量率。The traffic distribution method of the push information order provided by the application is based on the estimated flow rate of the supply node, and the flow distribution ratio under the frequency control condition is solved, which can be applied to the push information order with the frequency control requirement, so that the frequency control condition is Order placement is more reasonable, reducing the order replenishment rate.
在一些实例中,所述供应节点对应一个用户维度或维度组合,或者对应一个用户,当所述供应节点对应一个用户时,确定的所述订单的流量分配比例为一个用户对于该订单的流量分配比例;当所述供应节点对应一个用户维度或维度组合时,确定的所述订单的流量分配比例为一个用户维度或维度组合对于该订单的流量分配比例。In some examples, the provisioning node corresponds to a user dimension or a combination of dimensions, or corresponds to a user. When the provisioning node corresponds to a user, the determined traffic distribution ratio of the order is a user's traffic distribution for the order. Proportion; when the supply node corresponds to a user dimension or a combination of dimensions, the determined traffic distribution ratio of the order is a traffic ratio of a user dimension or a combination of dimensions for the order.
当供应节点对应一个用户维度或维度组合时,供应节点处的流量为相同定向条件下所有用户的流量,这样同定向条件下的所有用户,不论访问次数多少,都使用同样的流量分配比例。举例来说,订单的频次限制为3,那么对于一个访问次数为10的用户来说,流量分配比例应为0.3(即30%的曝光可以用来展示该订单),而对于一个访问次数为3或更少的用户来说,频次比应为1,然而如果这两种用户处于同一个定向条件下,他们会使用一个共同的流量分配比例,比如0.5,这对于两种用户来说显然都是不合适的。当供应节点对应一个用户时,流量分配可以得到基于用户级别的流量分配比例,基于用户级别的流量分配比例可以使得订单投放中的频控要求精确到用户。When the supply node corresponds to a user dimension or a combination of dimensions, the traffic at the supply node is the traffic of all users under the same targeting condition, so that all users under the same targeting condition use the same traffic distribution ratio regardless of the number of accesses. For example, if the order frequency is limited to 3, then for a user with 10 visits, the traffic distribution ratio should be 0.3 (ie 30% exposure can be used to display the order), and for a visit 3 Or fewer users, the frequency ratio should be 1, but if the two users are in the same orientation, they will use a common traffic distribution ratio, such as 0.5, which is obviously for both users. Not suitable. When the provisioning node corresponds to one user, the traffic distribution can obtain the traffic distribution ratio based on the user level, and the traffic distribution ratio based on the user level can make the frequency control requirement in the order delivery accurate to the user.
在一些实例中,所述流量分配服务器107中存储有各订单的流量预定量及各供应节点的预估流量,其中各供应节点的预估流量根据与该供应节点对应的历史曝光数据确定。例如,在图2中,供应节点1对应北京访问体育的用户,根据历史曝光数据确定北京的访问历史的用户为8M,则供应节点1的预估流量为8M。在上述步骤302中,在执行所述根据所述各供应节点对于该订单的频次比确定每一供应节点对于所述订单的期望流量分配比例时,如图4所示,可以包括以下步骤:In some examples, the traffic distribution server 107 stores the traffic predetermined amount of each order and the estimated traffic of each supply node, wherein the estimated traffic of each supply node is determined according to historical exposure data corresponding to the supply node. For example, in FIG. 2, the supply node 1 corresponds to the user who accesses sports in Beijing, and the user who determines the access history of Beijing according to the historical exposure data is 8M, and the estimated traffic of the supply node 1 is 8M. In the above step 302, when the ratio of the frequency of each of the supply nodes to the order is determined according to the frequency ratio of the each supply node to the order, as shown in FIG. 4, the following steps may be included:
步骤401:根据所述各供应节点对于该订单的频次比,确定所述各供应节点对于该订单提供的可用流量。Step 401: Determine, according to the frequency ratio of each supply node to the order, the available traffic provided by the each supply node for the order.
在执行上述步骤401时,执行根据所述各供应节点对于该订单的频次比及所述各供应节点的预估流量,确定所述订单的可用流量。When the above step 401 is performed, the available traffic of the order is determined according to the frequency ratio of the each supply node to the order and the estimated traffic of the each supply node.
根据订单的频次要求获得定向与该订单相符的各供应节点对于该订单的频次比,所述频次比表征在满足所述频次要求的情况下对应供应节点提供的流量中可用于所述订单的流量占比。Obtaining, according to the frequency requirement of the order, a frequency ratio of each supply node that is aligned with the order for the order, the frequency ratio characterizing traffic available to the order in the traffic provided by the corresponding supply node if the frequency requirement is met Proportion.
当一个订单被指定了频次限制后,满足其定向的可用流量就只有部分可用了。举例来说,假如订单j对频次控制的需求是n天k次,那么对于n天内访问次数较多,超过k次的用户来说,只有k次以内的访问 次数才是订单j的可用流量。将各供应节点的预估流量与对应的频次比相乘后得到各供应节点处的可用流量,将各供应节点处的可用流量加和,即得到该订单的可用流量。When an order is assigned a frequency limit, only the available traffic that satisfies its orientation is only partially available. For example, if the demand for frequency control of order j is n days k times, then for users with more visits in n days, more than k times, the number of accesses within k times is the available traffic of order j. The estimated traffic of each supply node is multiplied by the corresponding frequency ratio to obtain the available traffic at each supply node, and the available traffic at each supply node is summed to obtain the available traffic of the order.
步骤402:对于每一供应节点,根据所述可用流量、所述频次比、该订单的流量预订量和该供应节点的预估流量,确定该供应节点对于所述订单的期望流量分配比例。Step 402: For each supply node, determine a desired traffic distribution ratio of the supply node to the order according to the available traffic, the frequency ratio, the traffic reservation amount of the order, and the estimated traffic of the supply node.
在执行上述步骤402时,执行对于每一供应节点,根据所述订单的可用流量、所述供应节点对于订单的频次比、所述订单的流量预订量和所述供应节点的预估流量,确定所述供应节点对于所述订单的期望流量分配比例。When performing the above step 402, performing, for each supply node, determining, according to the available traffic of the order, the frequency ratio of the supply node to the order, the traffic reservation amount of the order, and the estimated traffic of the supply node, The supply node allocates a ratio of desired traffic to the order.
如上述所述,期望流量分配比例是希望将订单的预定量平均分配到可用流量上,可以通过所述订单的流量预订量与该订单的可用流量的比值获得。As described above, the desired traffic distribution ratio is that it is desirable to distribute the predetermined amount of the order evenly to the available traffic, which can be obtained by the ratio of the traffic booking amount of the order to the available traffic of the order.
在一些实例中,订单j对应的所述可用流量S j'通过以下公式(1)确定所述可用流量为: In some examples, the available traffic S j ' corresponding to the order j determines that the available traffic is by the following formula (1):

在一些实例中,在上述步骤303中,供应节点i对于订单j的供推 送服务器选单使用的流量分配比例x ij通过以下公式(3)表示的模型而确定 In some examples, in the above step 303, the supply node i determines the traffic distribution ratio x ij used for the push server menu of the order j by the model represented by the following formula (3).

The constraint parameter of the supply node is the proportion of the constraint condition of the supply node in determining the proportion of the traffic distribution; the constraint parameter of the order is the proportion of the constraint condition of the order in determining the proportion of the traffic distribution. Wherein, for calculating the constraint parameter of the supply node and the constraint parameter of the order, the initial value of the constraint parameter of the supply node or the constraint parameter of the order may be assigned, and the expected flow distribution ratio of each supply node obtained for each order and the given The initial value is substituted into the constraints of the supply node, and the constraints of the order are iteratively solved to obtain the convergence solution of the constraint parameters of the supply node and the convergence solution of the constraint parameters of the order. The specific process of calculating the constraint parameters is described in detail below.
在一些实例中,供应节点i对于订单j的供推送服务器选单使用的流量分配比例x ij通过以下公式(9)确定: In some examples, the distribution ratio x ij of the supply node i for use in the push server menu for order j is determined by the following formula (9):

在离线阶段,计算出各订单j的α j和各供应节点i的β i,但只保存各α j,因为α j的维数与订单的维数相同,β i的维数与供应节点的维数相同,订单的维数一般为数千或数万维度,而当一个供应节点表征一个用户时,供应节点的维数可以达到数亿乃至数十亿维度,从而只保存各α j,节省存储空间。 In the offline phase, α j of each order j and β i of each supply node i are calculated, but only α j is saved, because the dimension of α j is the same as the dimension of the order, the dimension of β i and the supply node The dimension is the same, the dimension of the order is generally thousands or tens of thousands of dimensions, and when a supply node represents a user, the dimension of the supply node can reach hundreds of millions or even billions of dimensions, thus only saving each α j , saving storage.
步骤502:在所述推送服务器收到用户的信息推送请求时,读取所保存的各α j,并根据所读取的各α j计算各供应节点的β iStep 502: When the push server receives the information push request from the user, read the saved α j and calculate β i of each supply node according to each read α j .
根据上述所述,为了节省存储空间,离线阶段只存储了α j,推送服务器收到用户的信息推送请求时,流量分配模块102进行流量分配时,读取存储的α j,并根据读取的α j及公式(22)计算各供应节点的β i,即根据∑ j∈Γ(i)h ijji)=1来计算各β iAccording to the above, in order to save storage space, only the α j is stored in the offline phase, and when the push server receives the information push request from the user, when the traffic distribution module 102 performs traffic distribution, the stored α j is read, and according to the read α j and formula (22) is calculated for each supply node β i, i.e. 1 β i is calculated according to the respective Σ j∈Γ (i) h ij ( α j -β i) =.
步骤503:根据所读取的各α j及所计算的各β i,通过所述公式(20)计算各x ijStep 503: Calculate each x ij by the formula (20) according to each of the read α j and the calculated β i .

在一些实例中,其中,所述根据各供应节点对于各个订单的期望流量分配比例以及各供应节点对于各订单的频次比,计算各供应节点的对 应于供给约束条件的约束参数以及各订单对应于需求约束条件的约束参数包括以下步骤:In some examples, wherein the constraint parameters corresponding to the supply constraints are calculated according to the expected traffic distribution ratio of each supply node for each order and the frequency ratio of each supply node to each order, and each order corresponds to The constraint parameters of the demand constraint include the following steps:
为所有订单的α j赋初值; Assign an initial value to α j for all orders;
根据以下公式计算各供应节点的β i Calculate β i of each supply node according to the following formula
对于所有的i,β i≥0,并且,要么β i=0,要么∑ j∈Γ(i)h ijji)=1 For all i, β i ≥ 0, and either β i =0, or ∑ j∈Γ(i) h ijji )=1
根据各供应节点的β i及以下公式计算各订单的α j Calculate α j of each order according to β i of each supply node and the following formula
对于所有的j,0≤α j≤p j,并且,要么α j=p j,要么∑ i∈Γ(j)s ih ijji)=d j For all j, 0 α j ≤ p j , and, or α j = p j , or ∑ i ∈Γ (j) s i h ijj - β i ) = d j
依次类推,迭代求解各α j及各β i的收敛解,将各α j的收敛解作为对应订单j的约束参数,将各β i的收敛解作为对应供应节点i的约束参数。 By analogy, the convergence solutions of each α j and each β i are iteratively solved, and the convergence solution of each α j is used as the constraint parameter of the corresponding order j, and the convergence solution of each β i is used as the constraint parameter of the corresponding supply node i.
具体地,在执行所述计算各订单j的α j及β i时,如图6所示,主要包括以下步骤: Specifically, when performing the calculation of α j and β i of each order j, as shown in FIG. 6 , the method mainly includes the following steps:
步骤601:为所有订单的α j赋初值。 Step 601: Assign an initial value to α j of all orders.
α j及β i是收敛的,同时根据α j的互补松弛条件中的0≤α j≤p j,为所有订单的α j赋予一个接近0的值,同时也可以为其赋值0。 α j and β i is convergent, according to the complementary slackness condition while α j in 0≤α j ≤p j, gives a close to zero value α j of all orders, but also can assign a value to 0.
步骤602:根据α j的约束条件以及β i的约束条件,迭代求解各α j及各β i的收敛解。 Step 602: Iteratively solve the convergence solution of each α j and each β i according to the constraint condition of α j and the constraint condition of β i .
如上述所述,α j的约束条件,即α j的互补松弛条件为公式(21): As said above, the constraints α j, α j that is complementary slackness condition of equation (21):
对于所有的j,0≤α j≤p j,并且,要么α j=p j,要么∑ i∈Γ(j)s ix ij=d j  (21) For all j, 0 α j ≤ p j , and, either α j = p j , or ∑ i ∈Γ (j) s i x ij = d j (21)
β i的约束条件,即β i的互补松弛条件为公式(22): constraints of β i, β i that is complementary slackness condition of formula (22):
对于所有的i,β i≥0,并且,要么β i=0,要么∑ j∈Γ(i)x ij=1(22) For all i, β i ≥ 0, and either β i =0, or ∑ j ∈Γ (i) x ij =1 (22)
在迭代求解α j及β i的收敛解时: When iteratively solves the convergence solution of α j and β i :
首先根据初始化的α j=0,根据β i的约束条件,即公式(22)计算各β i,具体地,根据公式(22)中的∑ j∈Γ(i)x ij=1,即∑ j∈Γ(i)h ijji)=1来计算各β i,同时在公式(22)中β i≥0,并且可能β i=0,因而当求解的β i<0或无解时,令β i=0。 First, according to the initialized α j =0, each β i is calculated according to the constraint condition of β i , that is, the formula (22), specifically, according to ∑ j ∈Γ (i) x ij =1 in the formula (22), that is, ∑ j ∈Γ (i) h ijj - β i ) = 1 to calculate each β i , while β i ≥ 0 in equation (22), and possibly β i =0, thus when solving β i <0 Or when there is no solution, let β i =0.
当计算得到各β i后,在根据α j的约束条件,即公式(21)计算各α j,具体地,根据公式(21)中的公式∑ i∈Γ(j)s ix ij=d j,即∑ i∈Γ(j)s ih ijji)=d j来计算各α j。同时在公式(21)中,0≤α j≤p j,并且可能α j=p j,因而当求解的α j>p j或无解时,令α j=p j。从而在迭代求解一定次数后,得到各α j的收敛解。 After calculating each β i , each α j is calculated according to the constraint condition of α j , that is, the formula (21), specifically, according to the formula 公式 i∈Γ(j) s i x ij =d in the formula (21) j , that is, ∑ i ∈Γ (j) s i h ijj - β i ) = d j to calculate each α j . Meanwhile, in the formula (21), 0 α j ≤ p j , and possibly α j = p j , so when α j > p j or no solution is solved, let α j = p j . Thus, after iteratively solving a certain number of times, a convergence solution of each α j is obtained.
在计算得到α j及β i的收敛解后,还可以包括步骤603:保存所述各α j的收敛解。 After calculating the convergence solution of α j and β i , step 603 may be further included: saving the convergence solution of each α j .

流量分配模块102接收到来自推送服务器103的曝光请求(信息推送请求)后,根据请求中携带的用户的标识获取用户的特征,根据用户的特征获得定向与该曝光请求相符的供应节点。此外,曝光请求中还携带展示位信息,还可以根据用户特征及展示位信息确定匹配的供应节点。After receiving the exposure request (information push request) from the push server 103, the traffic distribution module 102 acquires the feature of the user according to the identifier of the user carried in the request, and obtains a supply node that is consistent with the exposure request according to the feature of the user. In addition, the exposure request also carries the display bit information, and the matching supply node can also be determined according to the user feature and the display bit information.
步骤702:确定与所述用户特征相匹配的供应节点。Step 702: Determine a supply node that matches the user feature.
当流量分配模块102接收到曝光请求后,根据曝光请求中的用户的特征确定与该曝光请求对应的供应节点。例如在图2中,上海访问体育 频道的用户会被匹配到供应节点2。When the flow distribution module 102 receives the exposure request, the supply node corresponding to the exposure request is determined according to the characteristics of the user in the exposure request.

在一些实例中,对于一个曝光(即一个供应节点i)来说,计算出的所有的x ij之和(j∈Γ(i))可能出现不等于1的情况。当x ij之和小于1,意味着可能会选不到一个合适的订单用以展示,导致空单。当x ij之和大于1,需要先选出一部分比较重要的订单,然后再进行投放。为此,需要为订单定义分配优先级。具体地,如图8所示,主要包括以下步骤: In some instances, for an exposure (ie, a supply node i), the sum of all calculated x ij (j ∈Γ (i)) may not be equal to one. When the sum of x ij is less than 1, it means that a suitable order may not be selected for display, resulting in an empty order. When the sum of x ij is greater than 1, you need to select some of the more important orders before you deliver them. To do this, you need to assign a priority to the order definition. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, the method mainly includes the following steps:
