Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for selecting an audience for content are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a content item provider, a request to distribute content items to users that have been deemed interested in a particular entity. First users that have expressed an interest in the particular entity are identified. Expansion entities for the particular entity are identified in a knowledge graph. At least one of the expansion entities can be connected to the particular entity by a relationship path. Second users are identified. The second users are deemed interested in the particular entity based on the second users having expressed an interest in an expansion entity. The content items are provided to at least a portion of the first users and at least a portion of the second users.

Abstract: Described is a technique for managing a workflow of human intelligence tasks based on task performance. When a large batch of tasks is performed continuously by a worker, task performance may decline. To lessen these consequences and improve overall task performance, the techniques described herein may adjust the type of tasks provided during a workflow. These adjustments may include providing a workflow interruption in the form of a different type of task or a break activity. These interruptions may switch between conceptual and perceptual activities in order to refresh the user and aid in alleviating the negative consequences of repetitive tasks such as physical and cognitive fatigue.
