AUTOMATICALLY BRANDING TOPICS USING COLOR

摘要

Embodiments of the invention automatically assign colors to topics in a topic database based on a respective topic's unique identifier within the topic database. One or more functions are applied to transform each topic's unique identifier into a respective color, for example by hashing the unique identifier string, and using the hash to index into an array of colors. Thus, content items pertaining to the same topic can be consistently branded with the same color in visual presentations to the user.
