A method is disclosed which includes: receiving, from a third-party content provider, a link to a structured document on an external server, where the link is associated with a post of the online social network by the third-party content provider, and retrieving the structured document from the external server, where the structured document includes content and input fields. This step is followed by extracting a predefined set of information from the structured document about the content and input fields of the structured document. The extracted set of information from the structured document are then evaluated to determine one or more feature-values of the structured document. A machine learning model is used to classify the structured document as an external lead-generation type page based on the one or more feature-values of the structured document and a notification is sent to the third-party content provider if the structured document is classified as an external lead-generation type page.

Classifying post types on online social networks

Embodiments are disclosed for transliterating text entries across different script systems. A method according to some embodiments includes steps of: receiving an input string in a first script system input using a keyboard; segmenting, using a probabilistic model, the input string into phonemes that correspond to characters or sets of characters in a second script system; converting the phonemes in the first script system into the characters or sets of characters in the second script system, the characters or sets of characters forming a word or a word prefix in the second script system; and outputting the word or the word prefix in the second script system.

Transliteration of text entry across scripts

Embodiments are disclosed for transliteration decoding using a tree structure. A method according to some embodiments includes steps of: generating a tree structure for an input string in a first script system, the tree structure including nodes representing segments of the input string; identifying segmentation candidates for the input string based on paths of the tree structure, the segmentation candidates segmenting the input string into character groups; selecting a segmentation candidate based on probabilities of the segmentation candidates predicted by a probabilistic model; segmenting the input string into character groups that correspond to characters in a second script system; decoding the character groups in the first script system into the characters in the second script system, the characters forming a word or a word prefix in the second script system; and outputting the word or the word prefix in the second script system.
