Abstract: Techniques for performing unequal sampling are provided. In one technique, multiple scores generated by a prediction model are identified, each score corresponding to a different entity of multiple entities. Multiple buckets are determined, each bucket corresponding to a different range of scores. Each entity is assigned to a bucket based on the score corresponding to the entity. A probability distribution function is generated based on the scores and a number of scores belonging to each bucket. For each entity, a probability of sampling the entity is determined based on the probability distribution function and a score corresponding to the entity. A subset of the entities are sampled based on the probability determined for each entity.

Abstract: In one technique, one or more search criteria associated with a first user are determined. Based on the one or more search criteria, a search of a first set of users is performed. As a result of the search, a subset of the first set of users is identified. A second set of users that have responded to messages from users in the subset is identified. Instances of attribute values of an attribute of the second set of users are aggregated to generate aggregated values, each of which corresponds to a different attribute value of the attribute values. Based on one or more of the aggregated values, content that is related to one or more attribute values that correspond to the one or more aggregated values is determined and presented to the first user.

Abstract: Method and system for identifying user expectations in question answering in an on-line social network system are described. The automated support system is configured to address the technical problem of optimization of the processing of user input submitted to a computer in the form of a natural language. The automated support system uses machine learning algorithms to automatically extract, from the user input, information indicative of the user's expectations and obtain data relevant to the input based on said information indicative of the user's expectations.

Abstract: Techniques for expanding activity channels in an online network are provided. In one technique, one or more search criteria associated with a first user are determined. Based on the one or more search criteria, a search of a first set of users is performed. As a result of the search, a subset of the first set of users is identified. A second set of users that have responded to messages from users in the subset is identified. Instances of attribute values of an attribute of the second set of users are aggregated to generate aggregated values, each of which corresponds to a different attribute value of the attribute values. Based on one or more of the aggregated values, content that is related to one or more attribute values that correspond to the one or more aggregated values is determined and presented to the first user.
