  • Publication number: 20230252087
    Abstract: A data processing system implements receiving a request for user-centric topic recommendations from a computing device of a user in response to a user input in an application indicating that the user is attempting to assign a tag to a first content item in the application; obtaining a first set of user-centric topic recommendations from a first topic datastore based on a relevance ranking assigned to each of the topic recommendations; providing the first set of user-centric topic recommendations to the computing device; causing the computing device to display the first set of user-centric topic recommendations; receiving one or more second requests for user-centric topic recommendations; obtaining one or more second sets of user-centric topic recommendations from the first topic datastore based on the query string and the relevance ranking; and causing the computing device of the user to display the one or more second sets of user-centric topic recommendations.

  • Publication number: 20150254572
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for ordering messages. A computer-implemented method for ordering of messages may include collecting training data related to users of a messaging system, generating a label for a message, generating feature values based on the training data and the message, and training a relevance model based on the feature values using a machine learning algorithm. The relevance model is configured to rank new message candidates received by the messaging system for display by the messaging system.

  • Patent number: 8630989
    Abstract: Described herein are methods, systems, apparatuses and products for automatically discovering patterns in a text corpus. An aspect provides extracting at least one context string related to at least one annotator from the at least one text corpus; analyzing the at least one context string for at least one sequence, the at least one sequence comprised of at least one subsequence; determining at least one sequence signature for each at least one sequence by applying applicable rules to the at least one sequence; and grouping the at least one sequence signature into at least one group.
