Patent number: 12675485Abstract: System and methods are presented for associating a user-posted content item with an interest node of an interest taxonomy. A corpus of content items and an interest taxonomy are maintained. The interest taxonomy comprises interest nodes organized in a hierarchical organization, each node having a text label descriptive of the interest node. Additionally, the content items of the corpus are associated with one or more interest nodes of the interest taxonomy. Upon receiving a user-posted content item, feature sets of the received content item are generated, these feature sets based on features and/or aspects of the received content item. After generating at least one feature set, the at least one feature set is provided to an interest prediction model that generates candidate interest nodes for the user-posted content item. At least some of the candidate interest nodes are associated with the user-posted content item in the corpus.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2024Date of Patent: July 7, 2026Assignee: Pinterest, Inc.Inventors: Chenyi Li, Yunsong Guo, Yu Liu

Publication number: 20260080282Abstract: Described are systems and methods for determining complementary and/or matching objects based on an input query object. The described systems and methods can generate an embedding representative of the provided object, which can be transformed to generate a style embedding by a trained system, such as a machine learning system. The style embedding can then be used to identify one or more complementary objects from a corpus of classified objects. Aspects of the present disclosure also relate to creation of the training dataset, as well as training the machine learning system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2025Publication date: March 19, 2026Inventors: Chenyi Li, Kunlong Gu, Eric Kim, Andrew Huan Zhai, Charles Joseph Rosenberg

Publication number: 20240211698Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for inferring an embedding vector of an item of a first type into the embedding space. Upon receiving a first time for which there is no embedding vector, documents of a document corpus that include (co-occurrence) both the received item and other items of the same type are identified. Of those other items that have embedding vectors, those embedding vectors are retrieved and averaged. The resulting averaged embedding vector is established as an inferred embedding vector for the received item.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2024Publication date: June 27, 2024Applicant: Pinterest, Inc.Inventors: Heath Vinicombe, Chenyi Li, Yunsong Guo, Yu Liu
