  • Patent number: 11934926
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a process is introduced into a machine learned model where additional results are output by the machine learned model in addition to those results that would be obtained through use of the trained model itself. In some example embodiments, these additional results may be random or semi-random to introduce results that might otherwise not have been recommended by the machine learned model. By introducing such additional results in a controlled way, it becomes possible to reduce biases caused by a self-reinforcing feedback loop while still presenting users with accurate machine learned model results.
