Abstract
A system draws an inference about the audience being targeted by the buyer of an advertisement placement opportunity by correlating the order for the advertisement placement opportunity with characteristics of the audience associated with the television program in which the advertisement placement opportunity is embedded. Sellers of advertisement placement opportunities may use the inferred target audience information to appropriately price their advertising inventories and to fulfill orders more effectively.
