A frame represents a concept with a set of roles and a set of linguistic rules. If a linguistic rule is satisfied, by a unit of natural language discourse (UNLD), the frame is invoked and a frame instance produced. A frame instance specifies how the UNLD, with particular values drawn from the UNLD, fulfills the roles of the frame. A frame-based search, of target content, is accomplished in response to a frame-based user query. The search result is comprised of records, where each record is a result of a match, of the frame-based query, at a location in the target content. If the frame-based query is implicit, a match requires only that the location of the target content invokes the appropriate frame. If the frame-based query is role-specific, in addition to invoking the appropriate frame, a query search term needs to be found in the value for a role of the frame instance produced.

In an example, first and second machine learned models corresponding to a particular context of a social networking service are obtained, the first machine learned model trained via a first machine learning algorithm to output an indication of importance of a social networking profile field to obtaining results in the particular context, and the second machine learned model trained via a second machine learning algorithm to output a propensity of the user to edit a social networking profile field if requested. One or more missing fields in a social networking profile for the user are identified. For each of one or more of the one or more missing fields, the field and an identification of the user are passed through the first and second machine learned models, and outputs of the first and second machine learned models are combined to identify one or more top missing profile fields.

Machine learned models for contextual editing of social networking profiles

Techniques for optimizing a guided edit process for editing a member profile page are described. According to various embodiments, incomplete member profile fields in a member profile associated with member of an online social networking service are identified. Profile completion score weight values associated with the incomplete member profile fields in the member profile are then determined. Thereafter, the incomplete member profile fields in the member profile are ranked, based on the profile completion score weight values associated with each of the incomplete member profile fields. A list of one or more of the highest ranked incomplete member profile fields are then displayed, together with a prompt recommending the member to complete the identified incomplete member profile fields.

A frame represents a concept with a set of roles and a set of linguistic rules. If a linguistic rule is satisfied, by a unit of natural language discourse (UNLD), the frame is invoked and a frame instance produced. A frame instance specifies how the UNLD, with particular values drawn from the UNLD, fulfills the roles of the frame. A frame-based search, of target content, can produce a search result comprised of records and corresponding frame instances. The values of such frame instances can be presented to the user as a role-value oriented search result. Multiple values of a role-value oriented search result, sufficiently similar in meaning, can be merged. Merged values can be represented, in a role-value oriented search result, by a single value. Selection of a value, of a role-value oriented search result, can cause the records, for which the value occurs in the corresponding instance, to be displayed to the user.
