USER ABILITY-BASED ADAPTIVE SELECTING AND PRESENTING VERSIONS OF A DIGITAL CONTENT ITEM

摘要

A content publishing system retrieves user identification information and interaction information associated with a user of the content publishing system. The content publishing system provides a selected content item to the user and calculates a user score representing a reader's reading ability. The score is calculated based on the retrieved user identification information and interaction information. Using the calculated score, content publishing system generates instructions for dynamically selecting a particular version or representation of a selected content item based on the calculated user score associated with the viewing user. The generated instructions are retrieved by a viewing application residing on a client device and used to select the appropriate version of the previously selected content item to present to the user.
