Systems And Methods For Optimally Ordering Recommendations

摘要

Example systems and methods for optimally ordering recommendations or search results are described. In one implementation, a method determines a set of items as search results or candidates for recommendation. Each of the items in the set is associated with a respective first parameter representative of a measure of suitability of the respective item for recommendation. The items in the set are associated with a plurality of second parameters each of which representative of a measure of similarity between a respective one of the items and another respective one of the items. The method also determines an order in which a subset of the items is to be displayed based at least in part on the representative first parameter and the representative set of second parameters associated with the items. The method further displays the subset of the items in the determined order.

1. A method comprising:
determining, by one or more processors, a plurality of items as search results or candidates for recommendation, wherein:
each item of the plurality of items is associated with a respective first parameter representative of a measure of suitability for a predefined purpose, andthe plurality of items are associated with a plurality of second parameters, each second parameter of the plurality of second parameters representative of a measure of similarity between an item of the plurality of items and another item of the plurality of items; determining, by the one or more processors, an order, which a subset of the plurality of items are to be displayed in, using a best cost arrangement algorithm based at least in part on the respective first parameter associated with the each item of the plurality of items and the second parameters associated with the plurality of items; and displaying, the one or more processors, the subset of the plurality of items in the determined order.
