A messaging system provides recommendations of content that account holders of the messaging system might be interested in engaging with. In order to determine what to recommend, the messaging system generates a model of account holder engagement behavior organized by type of engagement. The model parameters are trained on differences between expected engagement behavior based on past data and actual engagement behavior, and include a set of common factor matrices that are trained using data from more than on engagement type. As a consequence, engagement behavior of other account holders with respect to other types of engagements different than the one sought to be recommended serves as a partial basis for determining what engagements of the sought-after type are recommended.
A social messaging platform provides moderation features for user to include a user-defined content filter and one or more labels and/or guidelines to display with a base message posted by a content creator. The user-defined content filter includes a list of offensive expressions selected, in part, by the content creator, to moderate reply messages posted by content consumers in response to a creator's content base message. In this manner, the user-defined content filter provides users of the platform the ability to selectively choose offensive expressions especially phrases that can have different meanings in different contexts. The labels and/or guidelines further provide users a way to explicitly display injunctive social norms to users and, thus, establish rules for what content is socially acceptable in a reply message.
A social messaging platform provides several selective engagement features to facilitate selective engagement between the users of the platform. Content creators can categorize their content according to one or more subaccounts so that content covering different topics can be disseminated to different target different audiences from a single user account. Additionally, users interested in a subset of the content posted by a content creator can selectively choose which content to receive based on the subaccounts of the content creator. Content creators can also use a friends list to selectively engage a group of users selected by the content creator. Each user is provided various settings to control how other users interact with the user and the content they post to the social messaging platform including the visibility of the user's content, the discoverability of the user's account, and references to the user and their content in other users' messages.

A social messaging platform includes a labeling module to label a base message according to an aggregate message response parameter, which represents the sentiment of users towards the content of the base message. The labels provide information that can be used to distinguish more nuanced sentiments and the degree of the sentiment users may have towards the base message. The aggregate message response parameter and corresponding labels are determined, in part, by identifying and evaluating icons (e.g., emojis, emoticons) present in one or more response messages posted in response to a base message. The labels, in turn, can be used in a variety of applications including recommending new content to users based on their mood, identifying messages potentially containing toxic content for review, or providing a way for businesses to evaluate public sentiment towards an advertisement and facilitate targeted advertisements to users.

Improved graph neural networks (GNNs) include defining a GNN architecture based on a discretized non-Euclidean diffusion partial differential equation (PDE) such that evolution of feature coordinates represents message passing layers in a GNN and evolution of positional coordinates represents graph rewiring. The GNN being based on both position and feature coordinates has their evolution derived from Beltrami flow. The Beltrami flow is modeled using a Laplace-Beltrami operator, which is a generalization of the Laplace operator to functions defined on submanifolds in Euclidean space and on Riemannian manifolds. The discretization of the spatial component of the Beltrami flow offers a principled view on positional encoding and graph rewiring, whereas the discretization of the temporal component can replace GNN layers with more flexible adaptive numerical schemes. Based on this model, Beltrami Neural Diffusion (BLEND) that generalizes a broad range of GNN architectures is introduced; BLEND shows state-of-the-art performance on many benchmarks.

A real time messaging platform identifies an audio snippet of a time-based media (TBM) event. The messaging platform maintains a real time repository of concurrently broadcasting TBM events as well as a historical repository of previously broadcast TBM events. These repositories contain acoustic fingerprints of their respective TBM events. The messaging platform matches an acoustic fingerprint of the audio snippet with one of the stored acoustic fingerprints to identify the TBM event in the recorded snippet. To identify the TBM event, the messaging platform matches multiple overlapping reference audio segments of the reference audio stream with multiple test audio segments of the audio snippet. This allows the platform to account for time delays between the test and reference audio segments that would otherwise hinder the matching process.

Pre-filtering of candidate messages for message streams in a messaging platform
A real-time messaging platform allows advertiser accounts to pay to insert candidate messages into the message streams requested by account holders. To accommodate multiple advertisers, the messaging platform controls an auction process that determines which candidate messages are selected for inclusion in a requested account holder's message stream. Selection is based on a bid for the candidate message, the message stream that is requested, and a variety of other factors that vary depending upon the implementation. The process for selection of candidate messages generally includes the following steps, though any given step may be omitted or combined into another step in a different implementation: targeting, filtering, prediction, ranking, and selection.
