  • Publication number: 20170024765
    Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure can be embodied in a method that includes providing item recommendations for display to a user of a social networking service based on the user's responses (or lack thereof) to recommendations that were previously displayed or viewed by the user. A score is calculated for each item recommendation based on whether the item recommendation was displayed during a predetermined time period but implicitly rejected by the user. The scores assigned to the respective item recommendations are used to select additional item recommendations for display.

  • Publication number: 20160300010
    Abstract: A method for creating a metabolic map of metabolic reactions by selecting metabolic reactions active in cancer cells. A core set of metabolic reactions occurring in the cancer cells is designated. For each permutation, whether inhibition of the k-th non-core reaction together with inhibition of all previously deleted non-core reactions results in inhibition of any of the core reactions or results in inhibition of the flux of biomass metabolites to biomass is determined. If inhibition of the k-th non-core reaction and inhibition of all previously deleted non-core reactions does not result in inhibition of any core reactions and does not result in inhibition of the flux of biomass metabolites to biomass, then the k-th non-core reaction is deleted from the set of non-core reactions. The number of permutations for which the k-th non-core reaction is not deleted is determined and a metabolic map is then created based on that number.

  • Patent number: 9208155
    Abstract: A recommendation system for optimizing content recommendation lists is disclosed. The system dynamically tracks a list interaction history of a user, which details that user's interactions with a plurality of different lists presenting different recommended items to that user. The system automatically correlates one or more list preferences with that user based on the list interaction history, and builds a recommendation list with a plurality of candidate items having different recommendation confidences. The recommendation list is built such that each candidate item with a higher recommendation confidence is prioritized over each candidate item with a lower recommendation confidence according to the one or more list preferences correlated to that user.

  • Publication number: 20130218907
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods and apparatus for recommending items from a catalog of items to users in a population of users by generating trait vectors that represent items in the catalog responsive to explicit and/or implicit preference data for a group of less than all the users and using the trait vectors to recommend items to users in the population that are not in the group.
