Abstract: Computing system enhancements make container instantiation faster, reduce layer content storage demands, and make more container image formats available. A container instantiation location sends a container image pull request to a container registry, receives an image manifest, sends a layer mount request to the registry instead of a layer content download request, receives a layer mount, optionally repeats for additional layers, creates a union file system spanning the layers, and launches a container process based on the union file system without first downloading all the layer content. Inefficiencies and technical limitations of some other approaches are avoided, such as loopback mounts for snapshot expansion, creation or transmission of extra snapshots or extra container image clones, cluttering layer content with virtual machine settings, container system vendor lock-in, lack of container instantiation at a local system due to insufficient local storage, and lack of syscall optimization due to storage driver plugin usage.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for predicting talent flow to and/or from a geographical region. In one technique, multiple entity profiles are stored and analyzed to generate training data that is labeled indicating whether a corresponding entity has moved to or moved from a region. A machine-learned prediction model is generated or trained based on the training data. Using the machine-learned prediction model, a prediction is made whether, for each entity corresponding to another entity profile, that entity will move to or move from a particular geographic region. Based on multiple predictions, a number of entities that are predicted to move to or move from the particular geographic region is determined. Talent flow data that is based on the number of entities is presented on a computer display.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for intelligent scheduling of calls to sales leads, leveraging machine learning (ML) to optimize expected results. One exemplary method includes determining, using a connectivity prediction model, call connectivity rate predictions; determining timeslot resources; allocating, based at least on the call connectivity rate predictions and timeslot resources, leads to timeslots in a first time period; determining, within a timeslot and using a lead scoring model, lead prioritization among leads within the timeslot; configuring, based at least on the lead prioritization, the telephone unit with lead information for placing a phone call; and applying a contextual bandit (ML) process to update the connectivity prediction model, the lead scoring model, or both. During subsequent time periods, the updated connectivity prediction and lead scoring models are used, thereby improving expected results over time.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing calibration of response rates. During operation, the system obtains a position of a content item in a ranking of content items generated for delivery to a member of an online system and a predicted response rate by the member to the content item. Next, the system determines an updated response rate by the member to the content item based on the position of the content item in the ranking and dimensions associated with the predicted response rate and the ranking. The system then outputs the updated response rate for use in managing delivery of the content item.

Abstract: Generally discussed herein are devices, systems, and methods for scheduling tasks to be completed by resources. A method can include identifying features of the task, the features including a time-dependent feature and a time-independent feature, the time-dependent feature indicating a time the task is more likely to be successfully completed by the resource, converting the features to feature values based on a predefined mapping of features to feature values in a first memory device, determining, by a gradient boost tree model and based on a first current time and the feature values, a likelihood the resource will successfully complete the task, and scheduling the task to be performed by the resource based on the determined likelihood.

Abstract: The concepts relate to task completion and specifically to aiding a user to complete an unfinished task at a subsequent time and/or on another device. One example can identify that a user is working on a task on a computing device associated with the user. In an instance when the user stops using the computing device without completing the task, the example can predict a likelihood that the user will subsequently resume the task on a second computing device associated with the user. In an instance where the likelihood exceeds a threshold, the example can attempt to aid the user in completing the task on the second computing device.

Abstract: This document relates to training of machine learning models. One example method involves providing a machine learning model having one or more mapping layers. The one or more mapping layers can include at least a first mapping layer configured to map components of pretraining examples into first representations in a space. The example method also includes performing a pretraining stage on the one or more mapping layers using the pretraining examples. The pretraining stage can include adding noise to the first representations of the components of the pretraining examples to obtain noise-adjusted first representations. The pretraining stage can also include performing a self-supervised learning process to pretrain the one or more mapping layers using at least the first representations of the training data items and the noise-adjusted first representations of the training data items.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system for performing dynamic job bidding optimization. During operation, the system obtains historical data containing a time series of interactions with a job. Next, the system uses the historical data to calculate an initial price of a job based on a predicted number of interactions with the job. The system then determines a first dynamic adjustment to the initial price that improves utilization of a budget for the job and a second dynamic adjustment to the initial price that improves a performance of the job. Finally, the system applies the first and second adjustments to the initial price to produce an updated price for the job and delivers the job within an online system based on the updated price.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that performs pacing for balanced delivery. During operation, the system obtains predicted response rates associated with impressions of a content item delivered within an online system and a cost per action (CPA) for the content item. Next, the system determines an impression-based spending for the content item based on the predicted response rates and the CPA. The system then calculates a pacing score for the content item based on the impression-based spending. Finally, the system adjusts subsequent interactions with the content item based on the pacing score.
