Determining logical groups based on both passive and active activities of user

摘要

Systems and methods for adding a first user to a first group of users are presented. First, logical relationship information describing logical relationships among a plurality of users is accessed. Then potential membership of a first user in a first group of users is determined based on the logical relationship information, by selecting the first group from a plurality of possible groups, the selecting being based on scores generated, for each of the plurality of possible groups, by a candidate scorer module, the scores based at least partially on both passive and active interactions between the first user and other users, the first group of users containing a plurality of users, including one or more users who are not logically connected to the first user. Then the first user is added to the first group of users.

1. A method, comprising:
accessing logical relationship information describing logical relationships among a plurality of users; generating, by a candidate scoring module, scores for each of a plurality of possible groups based at least partially on the logical relationship information and both passive and active interactions between the first user and other users; selecting a first group from the plurality of possible groups based on the scores, wherein the first group contains more than one users, including both one or more users who are not logically connected to the first user in the accessed logical relationship information and one or more users who are logically connected to the first user in the accessed logical relationship information; adding the first user to the first group; measuring affinity levels among the users of the first group, the affinity levels based at least partially on both passive and active interactions between the first user and other users in the first group; and removing the first user from the first group in response to a determination that the affinity level between the first user and the other users in the first group has dropped below a preset threshold over time.
