The present disclosure discusses the adjustment of a rate of display between different types of content item categories. The system of the present disclosure can determine a content item's rate of display with a first category of content and with a second category of content. The system can determine a relationship between the display rates. If the display rates are outside of a predetermined range, the system can update the display parameters of the content categories.

Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed generally to facilitating content selection by identifying low impact criteria. In some implementations, a data processing system accesses a data structure storing, in a memory element, a plurality of impression records. Each impression record can include one or more features and an indication of user interest corresponding to a content impression. The data processing system can identify a combination feature based on at least two of the features. The data processing system can execute a statistical model (e.g., logistic regression model) using the impression records and the combination feature. The data processing system can determine a weight for the combination feature. Responsive to the weight being less than a threshold, the data processing system can transmit an indication to disable the combination feature for selecting content associated with the plurality of impression records.

Content Selection

A computing device automatically customizes attributes of a graphical keyboard based on user inputs to the graphical keyboard. For example, the computing device can display a first graphical keyboard arrangement that includes a first representation of a key associated with a target region of an input-sensitive display. The computing device receives a plurality of user inputs, each associated with a respective touch region of the input-sensitive display. Subsequent to determining that one or more of the touch regions is not substantially aligned with the target region, the computing device displays a second graphical keyboard arrangement that includes a second representation of the key, wherein at least one attribute of the second representation of the key is graphically modified relative to the first representation of the key so as to substantially align one or more of the touch regions with a target region associated with the second representation of the key.
