  • Patent number: 12056134
    Abstract: The described implementations are operable to determine potential objects of interest to a user based on a blend of the user's long-term behavior and short-term interests. Long term user behavior may be determined for the user over a period of time and represented as continuous data. Short-term interest may be determined based on objects with which the user has recently interacted, and attributes of those objects may be represented together as continuous data corresponding to the short-term user interest. The continuous data of the short-term user interest and long-term user behavior may be blended to produce a user embedding. The user embedding may then be compared with objects to determine objects that are of potential interest to the user.

  • Patent number: 11100157
    Abstract: A processor may create a preference vector by generating preference vector entries in fields that correspond to content attributes associated with at least one media program presented via a media device, each entry including a playback duration and a year. The processor may create a media entity matrix of entity vectors for entities associated with production of media programs. For each entity vector, the processor may generate matrix entries in fields that correspond to content attributes associated with at least one media program associated with the entity, each matrix entry including a year and a score, the score weighted by an epoch factor based upon a time span associated with the at least one media program presented via the media device. The processor may determine entity rankings based upon dot products between the preference vector and the entity vectors and provide a recommendation based upon the rankings.
