Selectively transmitting electronic notifications using machine learning techniques based on entity selection history

Abstract

Techniques for selectively transmitting electronic notifications using machine learning techniques based on entity selection history are provided. In one technique, a candidate notification is identified for a target entity. An entity selection rate of the candidate notification by the target entity is determined. Based on the candidate notification, determining a probability of the target entity visiting a target online system. Based on online history of the target entity, a measure of downstream interaction by the target entity relative to one or more online systems is determined. Based on the entity selection rate, the probability, and the measure of downstream interaction by the target entity, a score for the candidate notification is generated. Based on the score, it is determined whether data about the candidate notification is to be transmitted over a computer network to a computing device of the target entity.
