Abstract

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for automatically determining the relevance of matches between entities. A set of one or more indicators of relevance for each of a plurality of matches may be detected, where each of the plurality of matches exists between a first entity and a different one of a plurality of entities. Each set of one or more indicators of relevance indicates a degree of two-way interest for a corresponding one of the plurality of matches, the degree of two-way interest indicating both a degree of interest of the first entity in the corresponding one of the plurality of entities and a degree of interest of the corresponding one of the plurality of entities in the first entity. A probability of relevance of each of the plurality of matches may be determined based at least in part upon a corresponding set of one or more indicators of relevance. Each of the plurality of matches may be ranked based at least in part on the corresponding probability of relevance. A ranking function may be trained based upon the probability of relevance of each of the plurality of matches. The ranking function may subsequently be applied to identify and rank matches (e.g., in the absence of indicators of relevance).

Abstract

An apparatus includes an interface and a processor. The interface sends and receives data over a network. The processor uses the interface to transmit a first series of profiles to a first user that includes recommended profiles for a second user. The processor uses the interface to receive a selection from the first user of a profile corresponding to a third user. The processor uses the interface to transmit a second series of profiles to the third user that includes recommended profiles for the third user. The processor uses the interface to receive a selection from the third user of a profile corresponding to the second user. In response to receiving the selection from the first user of the profile corresponding to the third user and the selection from the third user of the profile corresponding to the second user, the processor enables communication between the second and third users.

Abstract

An apparatus includes an interface and a processor. The interface sends and receives data over a network. The processor uses the interface to transmit a first series of profiles to a first user. The first series of profiles corresponds to recommendations of users for a second user. The processor also uses the interface to receive a selection from the first user of a first profile of the first series of profiles. In response to receiving the selection from the first user of the first profile of the first series of profiles, the processor determines, based at least in part on the selection from the first user of the first profile, a second series of profiles. The processor additionally uses the interface to transmit the second series of profiles to the second user.

Abstract

In one embodiment, a method executed by at least one processor includes receiving first historical location information identifying a first location area at which a first user was present at a first time and receiving second location information identifying a second location area at which a second user was present at a second time. The method includes determining that the first historical location information and the second location information each correspond to a particular location area and determining that a characteristic related to the first user corresponds to a preference related to the second user. In response to these determinations, the method includes causing information related to the first user to be presented to the second user. The information related to the first user includes the first location area of the first user relative to the second location area of the second user.

Abstract

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for automatically determining the relevance of matches between entities. A set of one or more indicators of relevance for each of a plurality of matches may be detected, where each of the plurality of matches exists between a first entity and a different one of a plurality of entities. Each set of one or more indicators of relevance indicates a degree of two-way interest for a corresponding one of the plurality of matches, the degree of two-way interest indicating both a degree of interest of the first entity in the corresponding one of the plurality of entities and a degree of interest of the corresponding one of the plurality of entities in the first entity. A probability of relevance of each of the plurality of matches may be determined based at least in part upon a corresponding set of one or more indicators of relevance. Each of the plurality of matches may be ranked based at least in part on the corresponding probability of relevance. A ranking function may be trained based upon the probability of relevance of each of the plurality of matches. The ranking function may subsequently be applied to identify and rank matches (e.g., in the absence of indicators of relevance).

Abstract

Methods and systems for user communication in an online community and/or website are provided. User profile data may be accessed to from a memory. An analysis system compares the user profile data for the user with a time-dependent goal to determine a result. The time-dependent goal may be determined based on an analysis of a set of (successful) users. A user interface system generates a representation of the result for prompting the user to initiate a communication to a different user based on the time-dependent goal. The representation may comprise a metered representation indicating an amount of progress, by the user, toward the time-dependent goal.
