Techniques of providing category recommendations include a category recommendation system that provides users recommended categories based on implicit data (e.g., user-item interactions) and/or explicit data (e.g., queries, user information). The recommendations can be personalized or non-personalized (i.e., depending if user embeddings are used), queried or non-queried (i.e., depending on whether query embeddings are used), or personalized and queried (if both user and query embeddings are used). In any of these cases, there is an offline mode and a serving mode. In the offline mode, a category embedding is generated from an aggregation of item embeddings associated with a candidate category. In the serving mode, the candidate category is selected for display on a user device based on a similarity between the category embedding and either, or both, of the user embedding and the query embedding.

The present disclosure is directed to syncing data related to voice calls via dynamically assigned virtual phone numbers. A system receives a voice call entry from a content provider. The system access a lot data structure to parse the log data structure. The system matches a device identifier of the voice call entry with a device identifier of the log entry. The system determines that a predetermined threshold is satisfied by a time or duration of the log entry. The system retrieves a virtual phone number from the log entry. The system performs a lookup to determine a content item impression identifier. The system stores data provided via the voice call entry.
