Abstract

In one embodiment, one or more computing devices receives, from a first user, a request to search for compatible users, wherein the first user is associated with a set of first expressed interests, accesses one or more sets of second expressed interests of one or more second users, respectively, normalizes the set of first expressed interests and the sets of second expressed interests to obtain a set of first normalized interests and one or more sets of second normalized interests, respectively, calculates, for each set of second expressed interests, an interest compatibility score based at least in part on a probability that a user will express one or more pairs of a first normalized interest and a second normalized interest, and sends, to the first user, information associated with one or more of the second users based on the calculated interest compatibility scores.
