The present disclosure is directed to training, and providing recommendations via, a machine learning model architected to balance relevance and diversity of sets of recommendations. For example, a neural network can be provided with user profile features and can output probabilities for each of a number of recommendations. This can be converted into a ranked list of recommendations. The ranked list of recommendations is provided to a diversity model that maximizes an optimization objective having a first objective that quantifies relevance of a recommendation and a second objective that measures diversity of a set of recommendations. The output of the diversity model is a set of recommendations that have both high relevance and high diversity.
