Abstract: Described herein is a technique for generating personalized scores for a cohort of users of an online service, where the scores are for use in ranking connection recommendations, in the context of generating connection recommendations for a user of the online service. The technique involves using a linear programming (LP) problem solver to solve a multi-objective optimization problem formulated to incorporate competing objectives and specific constraints. The technique allows for personalizing recommendations scores, specifically, to ensure that infrequent users are receiving invitations to connect with other users, thereby increasing overall interaction and engagement.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for removing bias among users of an online service based on the amount of user's participation in the online service. One method includes operation for pre-training an invite model that provides a first score associated with a user of an online service and for pre-training an adversarial model that provides a second score, the adversarial model having the first score as an input. Further, the method includes training together the invite model and the adversarial model using an adversarial cost function based on the pre-training of the invite model and the adversarial model. The training together is repeated until discrimination of the invite model is below a predetermined threshold. Further, the invite model is utilized to generate the first scores, where the invite model generates the first scores without bias.
