Abstract
Technologies for generating a graph containing clusters of feature attribute values for training a machine learning model for content item selection and delivery are provided. The disclosed techniques include, for each entity, of a plurality of entities, a system identifies transitions from one geographic location to another geographic location. A graph is generated based on the transitions associated with each entity. The graph comprises nodes representing geographic locations and edges connecting the nodes. Each of the edges connects two nodes, represents a transition from one geographic location to another geographic location, and each edge represents an edge weight value that is based on frequencies of transitions between geographic locations represented by the two connected nodes. The system generates a plurality of clusters from the nodes based upon the edge weight value of each edge. The system includes the plurality of clusters as features in a machine learning model.
