  • Patent number: 12153583
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20240211698
    Abstract: 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.
