Abstract: An online system hosts a retailer storefront user interface for a third-party retailer that includes content associated with items offered by the retailer for procurement and delivery through the online system. A retailer may provide preferences for where different candidate content is placed in the retailer storefront user interface. The online system applies a machine learning model to the retailer preferences and other contextual information relating to a particular presentation of the retailer storefront user interface to dynamically rank content for different possible placement positions. The ranking scores may relate to predicted performance metrics associated with operations of the online system. Content is then placed in the retailer storefront user interface based on the respective ranking scores.

Abstract: A method for detecting a QRS complex of an electrocardiogram signal, an apparatus therefor, a device and a medium are provided. A QRS complex of an electrocardiogram signal is detected by a detection model including a DenseNet and a dual-channel Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Spatial feature information of the QRS complex in the electrocardiogram signal is learned through the DenseNet, and then the spatial feature learned by the DenseNet and the time sequence data are input into respective channels of the dual-channel LSTM, so that the dual-channel LSTM can fuse the spatial information and the time sequence information of the QRS complex in the electrocardiogram signal, thereby improving a segmentation effect of the model on features, and finally improving accuracy of detecting the QRS complex.
