Abstract
Techniques for category-based content recommendation are described. Some embodiments provide a content recommendation system ('CRS') configured to recommend content items (e.g., Web pages, images, videos) that are related to specified categories. In one embodiment, the CRS processes content items to determine entities referenced by the content items, and to determine categories related to the referenced entities. The determined entities and/or categories may be part of a taxonomy that is stored by the CRS. Then, in response to a received request that indicates a category, the CRS determines and provides indications of one or more content items that each have a corresponding category that matches the indicated category. In some embodiments, at least some of these techniques are employed to implement a category-based news service.
