  • Patent number: 11966405
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for inferring brand similarities using graph neural networks and selection prediction. In one embodiment, a brand-to-brand graph is generated indicating similarities between a set of brands according to at least one of: click-through data or conversion data. Using a first graph neural network (GNN) tower, the brand-to-brand graph is analyzed to determine brand similarities among a first brand identified from a search query and a first set of other brands. Using a second GNN tower, the brand-to-brand graph is analyzed to determine brand similarities among a second brand and a second set of other brands. A level of similarity between the first brand and the second brand is determined based at least in part on an output of the first GNN tower and an output of the second GNN tower.

  • Patent number: 11886478
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. In an example, a first performance metric score may be determined based upon first content item text. A plurality of similarity scores associated with a plurality of sets of content item text may be determined. One or more sets of content item text may be selected from among the plurality of sets of content item text based upon the plurality of similarity scores and a plurality of performance metric scores associated with the plurality of sets of content item text. The plurality of performance metric scores may comprise one or more performance metric scores associated with the one or more sets of content item text. The one or more performance metric scores may be higher than the first performance metric score. One or more representations of the one or more sets of content item text may be displayed.

  • Publication number: 20230206614
    Abstract: Disclosed frameworks for generating an image including a salient object and a staged background include extracting a salient object from a source image and applying a generative model to the salient object to generate the image. According to some embodiments, extracting a salient object from a source image involves using salient object detection method to identify the relevant portions of the source image corresponding to the salient object. In some embodiments, the generative model is a generative adversarial network trained using a domain relevant dataset.

  • Publication number: 20230048742
    Abstract: In an example, a first set of text may be received from a client device. A set of content items may be selected from among content items based upon the first set of text and a plurality of sets of content item text associated with the content items. A set of terms may be determined based upon the first set of text and the set of content items. A similarity profile associated with the set of terms may be generated. The similarity profile is indicative of similarity scores associated with similarities between terms of the set of terms. Relevance scores associated with the set of terms may be determined based upon the similarity profile. One or more search terms may be selected from among the set of terms based upon the relevance scores. A search may be performed based upon the one or more search terms.

  • Patent number: 11106746
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. An informational database may be analyzed based upon an entity to identify an informational article. The informational article may be analyzed to identify one or more first references associated with a first sentiment category and/or one or more second references associated with a second sentiment category. Sentiment tags, indicative of sentiment categories, may be assigned to one or more first reference content items associated with the one or more first references and/or to one or more second reference content items associated with the one or more second references. For each content item of a plurality of content items associated with the entity, a sentiment category associated with the content item may be determined based upon a comparison of the content item with the one or more first reference content items and the one or more second reference content items.

  • Patent number: 11019379
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for selecting content for transmission to devices are provided. First activity performed using a content interface on a device may be detected. First activity information associated with the first activity may be stored in an activity profile associated with the device. An activity database may be analyzed based upon the activity profile to identify one or more activity identifiers of the activity database. The activity database may comprise a plurality of activity identifiers and/or funnel stage tags associated with the plurality of activity identifiers. A request for content, associated with an entity, may be received from the device. A funnel stage score may be determined based upon one or more funnel stage tags associated with the entity and/or the one or more activity identifiers. A content item, associated with the entity, may be selected based upon the funnel stage score.
