  • Patent number: 11475084
    Abstract: Technologies for generating dynamic notification content for notification messages using a machine learned model are provided. The disclosed techniques include identifying an event related to a particular user, where the event has a particular notification type that represents a subject type of the event. Based on the particular notification type of the event, a set of candidate headline and call-to-action combinations corresponding to the particular notification type are identified. Using the machine learned model, scores are calculated for each headline and call-to-action combination in the set of candidate headline and call-to-action combinations. One or more particular headline and call-to-action combinations from the set of candidate headline and call-to-action combinations are selected based upon the scores calculated for each combination of the set of candidate headline and call-to-action combinations.

  • Publication number: 20190325531
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains a set of vectors representing attributes of a set of entities. For each vector in the set of vectors, the system generates a set of signatures from the vector. The system also periodically modifies a technique for generating the set of signatures to update the set of signatures for the vectors. The system then uses the set of signatures to identify a subset of the vectors with a matching signature. Finally, the system outputs the subset of the vectors for use in selecting candidates for matching to an additional entity.
