ENTITY SELECTION AND RANKING USING DISTRIBUTION SAMPLING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240134867 titled 'ENTITY SELECTION AND RANKING USING DISTRIBUTION SAMPLING

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed technologies involve generating a reward score for an entity, determining a rate distribution based on the reward score and the number of times the entity has been selected for ranking, generating a sampled rate value, creating a probability score for a pair of the entity and a user, determining a probability distribution using the probability score, generating a sampled probability value, and training a machine learning model using the sampled probability value.

  • Reward score generated for an entity
  • Rate distribution determined based on reward score and number of times entity selected for ranking
  • Sampled rate value generated by sampling rate distribution
  • Probability score generated for entity-user pair
  • Probability distribution determined using probability score
  • Sampled probability value generated by sampling probability distribution
  • Machine learning model trained using sampled probability value

Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of the disclosed technologies include generating a reward score for an entity. a rate distribution is determined using the reward score and a number of times the entity has been selected for ranking. a sampled rate value is generated by sampling the rate distribution. a probability score is generated for a pair of the entity and a user based on the sampled rate value. a probability distribution is determined using the probability score. a sampled probability value is generated by sampling the probability distribution. a machine learning model is trained using the sampled probability value.
