Abstract: Technologies for optimizing content delivery to end-users are provided. Disclosed techniques include storing results of an online experiment with respect to a set of users and determining a plurality of distinct subsets of users based upon the results of the experiment. Users within each of the plurality of distinct subsets may be identified based on metric impacts of the online experiment. For each distinct subset and each associated model parameter, a utility value that represents effectiveness of the model parameter, with respect to an objective, may be determined. An objective optimization model may be used to automatically determine probabilities for each of the model parameters associated with each distinct subset. Users of a second set of users may be assigned to a distinct subset and associated model parameters may be applied to a content delivery strategies of the second set of users.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method may determine content items regarding a subject to be high demand and sufficient supply, low demand and supply constrained, high demand and supply constrained, or low demand and supply constrained. The computer-implemented method may determine the following: a supply and demand of content items regarding a subject for members, supply demand ratios for the content items regarding the subject for each of the plurality of members, a median supply demand ratio of the supply demand ratios, a total demand for the content items regarding the subject, a median total demand of total demands for the content items regarding subjects for the members, and a median of median supplies demand ratios for the content items regarding the subjects for the members. The method may perform steps to improve demand or supply of a connection network.

Abstract: A machine for content-feedback-based machine learning to incent online content creation. The machine accesses a relevance value that identifies a level of relevance of a content item to a user. The content item is created by a content creator. The machine generates, using a machine learning model, a feedback sensitivity score associated with the content creator. The machine generates, based on the relevance value and a product between the feedback sensitivity score and a likelihood of the user providing a feedback signal in relation to the content item, a ranking score for the content item. The machine causes display of the content item, based on the ranking score, in a user interface of a client device associated with the user. An input pertaining to the content item received via the user interface causes improvement of the machine learning model based on updating the one or more feedback features.

Abstract: Techniques for automatically merging multiple content item queues are provided. In one technique, a first set of content items of a first type is identified. A second set of content items of a second type that is different than first type is identified. The the first set of content items and the second set of content items are merged in a content item feed. Such merging involves, for a particular slot in the content item feed: determining a previous slot that contains a first content item from the first set; determining a number of slots between the previous slot and the particular slot; based on the number of slots, generating a score for a second content item from the second set; and based on the score, determining whether to insert, into the particular slot, the second content item or a third content item from the first set of content items.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing multiple messages. In one example, a method includes determining a message transmission frequency threshold for a member of an online social networking service using responses from the member; receiving a message that is to be transmitted to the member; storing the message, without transmitting the message to the member, in a digest of messages for the member; and transmitting the digest to the member in response to a send score for the digest exceeding a send score threshold, the send score calculated using the number of messages in the digest.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for optimization of user interactions based on connection value scores. A method may comprise receiving input that indicates a selection of one or more social network activities to optimize for a particular member of a social network. The method may also comprise, based on the selection of the one or more social network activities, calculating a connection value score for a social network connection between the particular member and each user in a plurality of other users. Calculating the connection value score may comprise identifying one or more attribute values that are correlated with the one or more social network activities. Further, the method may comprise, based on the connection value score for each user of the plurality of other users, determining a ranking of the plurality of other users. The method may also comprise determining content based on the ranking of the plurality of other users.

Abstract: A unified notification platform for offline creation and distribution of notification content from a variety of data sources is described. The notification platform provides data adaptors that are reusable for generating notifications of different types, specifically, for generating notifications of different types that have features that have meaning across different notification types such that these features can be used to generate comparable relevance scores with respect to candidate profiles. The relevance score calculated for a notification with respect to a member profile is used to determine whether the notification is to be presented to the member represented by the member profile.
