Live-conversation modules on online social networks

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes accessing one or more posts of an online social network; extracting n-grams from each post; determining, for each post, whether it is associated with a trending topic based on whether one or more of the extracted n-grams are associated with the trending topic; caching each post determined to be associated with the trending topic in a corresponding conversation cache; calculating a quality-score for each cached post; and generating a live-conversation module comprising one or more of the cached posts having a quality-score above a threshold quality-score.
