Abstract
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for using, by one or more computer devices, engagement actions by users of a social network as behavioral signals for evaluating the quality of a content item shared by those users. Once the quality of a content item has been evaluated in this manner, an action can be performed on that content item (e.g., changing the visibility of that content item within the social network).
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- identifying, by one or more internetworked computer devices implementing a social network, a set of engagement actions relating to each user of a first plurality of users on the social network, wherein the set of engagement actions relating to each user of the first plurality of users is associated with the respective user engaging content items on the social network;
- determining, by the one or more internetworked computer devices, a user engagement score for each user of the first plurality of users based on the set of engagement actions relating to the respective user;
- identifying, by the one or more internetworked computer devices, a second plurality of users on the social network that has engaged a content item on the social network, wherein the second plurality of users is a subset of the first plurality of users;
- retrieving, by the one or more internetworked computer devices, the user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- determining, by the one or more internetworked computer devices, a content quality score for the content item based on the retrieved user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- and
- based at least in part on the content quality score, performing, by the one or more internetwork computer devices, an action for changing visibility of the content item within the social network.
4 more elements
A computer system, comprising:
- one or more internetworked computer devices, the one or more internetworked computer devices implementing a social network, wherein the one or more internetworked computer devices are configured to:
- identify a set of engagement actions relating to each user of a first plurality of users on the social network, wherein the set of engagement actions relating to each user of the first plurality of users is associated with the respective user engaging content items on the social network;
- determine a user engagement score for each user of the first plurality of users based on the set of engagement actions relating to the respective user;
- identify a second plurality of users on the social network that has engaged a content item on the social network, wherein the second plurality of users is a subset of the first plurality of users;
- retrieve the user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- determine a content quality score for the content item based on the retrieved user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- and
- based at least in part on the content quality score, perform an action for changing visibility of the content item within the social network.
5 more elements
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause one or more internetworked computer devices to:
- identify a set of engagement actions relating to each user of a first plurality of users on a social network, wherein the one or more internetworked computer devices implement the social network, and wherein the set of engagement actions relating to each user of the first plurality of users is associated with the respective user engaging content items on the social network;
- determine a user engagement score for each user of the first plurality of users based on the set of engagement actions relating to the respective user;
- identify a second plurality of users on the social network that has engaged a content item on the social network, wherein the second plurality of users is a subset of the first plurality of users;
- retrieve the user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- determine a content quality score for the content item based on the retrieved user engagement score for each user of the second plurality of users;
- and
- based at least in part on the content quality score, perform an action for changing visibility of the content item within the social network.
