  • Patent number: 11954161
    Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are described for providing content recommendations to a requestor. In implementations, user event records associated with media items and content types may be stored, for instance, in an event catalog. A set of user scores may be generated based on a user-content score model and the user event records, where each generated user score represents an affinity between a user and a corresponding content type of the plurality of content types. A set of title scores may also be generated for a media item based on a title-content score model, where each generated title score represents an affinity between the media item and a corresponding content type. In response to a request, the sets of scores may be combined to generate a set of content recommendations to provide to the requestor.

An air deflector includes an adjustable support coupled to the curved bottom wall to vary the angular orientation of the stream to permit changing the angle of the induction air stream for proper engagement with the filter and simultaneously change the curved bottom wall. The deflector in one form includes a single plate having a curved portion abutting the underside of the curved bottom wall and an outer planar portion. In another structure the curved bottom slot wall is flexibly mounted. A deflector plate is pivotally mounted beneath the outer end of flexibly mounted wall and projects outwardly thereof.
