A system implements a dynamic word correlated topic model (DWCTM) to model an evolution of topic popularity, word embedding, and topic correlation within a set of documents, or other dataset, that spans a period of time. For example, the DWCTM receives the set of documents and a quantity of topics for modeling. The DWCTM processes the set computing, for each topic, various distributions to capture a popularity, word embedding, and correlation with other topics across the period of time. In other examples, a dataset of user listening sessions comprised of media content items for modeling by the DWCTM. Media content metadata (e.g., artist or genre) of the media content items, similar to words of a document, can be modeled by the DWCTM.

Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for query understanding. A non-focused query quantifier generates non-focused query features that quantify a non-focused query and a non-focused query predictor generates a prediction associated with the non-focused query based on the non-focused query features.

Query understanding methods and systems

An electronic device stores a plurality of vector representations for respective media content items in a vector space, where each vector represents a media content item. The electronic device receives a first set of input parameters representing a previous session of a user of the media-providing service where the previous session included two or more of the respective media content items. The electronic device then receives a second set of input parameters representing a current context of the user and provides the first set of input parameters and the second set of input parameters to a neural network to generate a prediction vector for a current session. The prediction vector is embedded in the vector space. The electronic device identifies, based on the prediction vector for the current session, a plurality of media content items of the respective media content items in the vector space and provides the plurality of media content items to the user of the media-providing service during the current session.

A system implements a dynamic correlated topic model (DCTM) to model an evolution of topic popularity, topic representation, and topic correlation within a set of documents, or other dataset, that spans a period of time. For example, the DCTM receives the set of documents and a quantity of topics for modeling. The DCTM processes the set by analyzing words of the documents, identifying word clusters representing the topics, and computing, for each topic, various distributions using continuous processes to capture a popularity, representation, and correlation with other topics across the period of time. In other examples, the dataset are user listening sessions comprised of media content items. Media content metadata (e.g., artist or genre) of the media content items, similar to words of a document, can be analyzed and clustered to represent topics for modeling by the DCTM.
