Abstract
A computer system determines feature metrics for a content channel. The content channel includes one or more media items. The computer system receives a query that corresponds to a query types. The query type is associated with a subset of the feature metrics. The computer system evaluates the content channel based on the subset of feature metrics to produce a channel score for the query type and provides the channel score to position at least one of the media items of the content channel in a query result of the query.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving a query corresponding to one of a plurality of query types, the one of the plurality of query types being associated with a subset of a plurality of feature metrics of a plurality of content channels, each of the content channels comprising a plurality of media items;
- evaluating, by a computer system, a content channel of the plurality of content channels based on the subset of feature metrics of the content channel to produce a channel score of the content channel for the query type;
- assigning the channel score of the content channel to the plurality of media items of the content channel;
- and
- providing the channel score to position at least one of the plurality of media items of the content channel in a query result of the query.
A system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device coupled with the memory to:
- receive a query corresponding to one of a plurality of query types, the one of the plurality of query types being associated with a subset of a plurality of feature metrics of a plurality of content channels, each of the content channels comprising a plurality of media items;
- evaluate a content channel of the plurality of content channels based on the subset of feature metrics of the content channel to produce a channel score of the content channel for the query type;
- assign the channel score of the content channel to the plurality of media items of the content channel;
- and
- provide the channel score to position at least one of the plurality of media items of the content channel in a query result of the query.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium encoding instructions thereon that, in response to execution by a processing device, cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a query corresponding to one of a plurality of query types, the one of the plurality of query types being associated with a subset of a plurality of feature metrics of a plurality of content channels, each of the content channels comprising a plurality of media items;
- evaluating, by the processing device, a content channel of the plurality of content channels based on the subset of feature metrics of the content channel to produce a channel score of the content channel for the query type;
- assigning the channel score of the content channel to the plurality of media items of the content channel;
- and
- providing the channel score to position at least one of the plurality of media items of the content channel in a query result of the query.
