    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing system can deliver personalized content while preserving user privacy. For example, the computing system can include a content server that filters and selects aggregate content items (e.g., magazine issues, newspaper issues, etc.) that are relevant to a subject matter tag (e.g., investment identifier) received in a request from a client device. The content server can send the selected aggregate content items to the requesting client. Upon receiving the aggregate content items, requesting client device can evaluate and select aggregate content items to present to the user based on user preferences stored on the user device. The selected aggregate content items can then be presented on a display of the user device. Thus, personalization of aggregate content item selection and presentation can be performed without distributing user preference data outside of the user device thereby preserving user privacy.

    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method that detects document attribute preferences for viewing documents (e.g., articles) on a device. The method displays several documents on a display screen of the device, with each document having one or more associated attributes. In some embodiments, different documents can be associated with the same attribute or the same number of attributes, or can be associated with different attributes or a different number of attributes. In some embodiments, the method detects viewer interactions with one or more displayed documents, and based on these interactions, computes attribute scores for several attributes associated with a number of the documents. The computed attribute scores identify a preference ranking for attributes associated with the documents. Some embodiments use the computed attribute scores to select subsequent documents for display on the device and/or to arrange the display of subsequent documents on the device.

    Abstract: The embodiments set forth techniques for delivering relevant news articles to users. The techniques can involve auditioning different categories of news articles (e.g., entertainment, sports, technology, etc.) to a user to create a pleasant onboarding experience that requires minimal user input. As time progresses, affinity information for the user is gathered from various sources (e.g., news readers, web browsers, third-party applications, etc.). The affinity information can be used to (1) suggest additional categories in which the user might be interested, and (2) increase the accuracy by which subsequent news articles are delivered to the user. Additionally, feedback information about the user's interaction with the subsequent news articles can then be obtained, and various metrics associated with these news articles can be updated to reflect the user's interaction. In turn, the various updated metrics can enable these news articles to be delivered to other users in a more accurate manner.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can present a multi-language grouping of topics. For example, the computing device can determine a primary and secondary language for a user of the computing device. The computing device can request configuration that includes a tag language mapping that can be used to translate topic tags corresponding to the secondary language to topic tags corresponding to the primary language. When the computing device receives tagged content items associated with the secondary language, the computing device can translate the secondary language tags corresponding to the tagged content items into semantically equivalent topic tags in the primary language. The computing device can then group primary language content items and secondary language content items into multi-language groupings based on the topics corresponding to the translated content item tags. The computing device can then present the multi-language topic groupings of content items.
