AUDIENCE EXPANSION ACCORDING TO USER BEHAVIORS

Abstract:

Systems and methods are presented for carrying out a task to an expanded group of users on behalf of a third party. In operation, an online service receives task information corresponding to a task from a third party. Additionally, the online service receives a seed group of users from the third party. The online service determines an intersection between the seed group of users and the online service's corpus of users. This intersection of users is then used to identify an expanded set of users of the online service's corpus of users. The online service then carries out the task on behalf of the third party, targeting the expanded set of users.
