A system and method for calculating quality score for digital content are provided. In example embodiments, a first graph is generated comprising a user node and an article node, the user node corresponds to a user and the article node corresponds to an article. An edge is generated between the user node and the article node in the first graph based on a first action. A second graph is generated comprising the user node and the article node. An edge is generated between the user node and the article node in the second graph based on a second action type. A first authority score is calculated for the article node within the first graph. A second authority score is calculated for the article node within the second graph. A quality score is calculated for the article.

Automated measurement of content quality

A system and method for automatic topic tagging are provided. In example embodiments, input content is received, the content includes a plurality of terms. Term vectors are generated from the plurality of terms. Candidate topics are identified to assigned to the plurality of terms. Topics are assigned to the received content from the identified candidate topics.

Automatic content tagging

The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system obtains one or more metrics associated with user interaction with a set of content items in a member segment of a social network. Next, the system ranks the set of content items by the one or more metrics. The system then generates a content pool for the member segment based on the ranking of the content items. Finally, the system creates a content feed from the content pool for presentation to a user in the member segment.
