Abrégé

An online system performs load shedding in case of system overloads. The system maps each request to a tier and a cohort. The tier is determined based on a type of request and the cohort is determined based on the user. Each tier includes multiple cohorts. The tiers and cohorts are ranked by priority. If the system determines that the system is overloaded, the system determines a threshold tier and a threshold cohort for load shedding. The threshold tier and threshold cohort indicate a threshold priority of requests that are processed. If the system determines that the unprocessed request has a priority below the threshold priority indicated by the threshold tier and the threshold cohort, the system rejecting the unprocessed request. The system executes unprocessed requests that are not rejected.

A network system determines dissimilarities between a digital map and trace data of a road network in an area as service providers and service requestors coordinate service using the road network in the area. To determine dissimilarities the network system can determine a suggested route, determine a predicted route, receive executed trace data, and compare the predicted route data to the executed trace data for the suggested route. The network system may aggregate trace data when determining a dissimilarity. The network system can quantify the differences between traces to determine dissimilarities. Quantifications can include, ratios, bounds, and scores. The network system can determine and alternate route if a dissimilarity indicates that the state of a road segment has changed (e.g., from “open” to “closed”). The network system can modify guidance instructions if a dissimilarity indicates that a guidance instruction is misleading.

Abrégé

A network system provides interventions to providers to reduce the likelihood that its users will experience safety incidents. The providers provide service to the users such as transportation. Providers who are safe and have positive interpersonal behavior may be perceived by users as high quality providers. However, other providers may be more prone to cause safety incidents. A machine learning model is trained using features derived from service received by users of the network system. Randomized experiments and trained models predict the effectiveness of various interventions on a provider based on characteristics of the provider and the feedback received for the provider. As interventions are sent to providers, the change in feedback can indicate whether the intervention was effective. By providing messages proactively, the network system may prevent future safety incidents from occurring.

Abrégé

An online system receives a trip request including a location of the user requesting the trip. The online system identifies buildings or geographies based on the received location and determines location boundaries associated with the identified buildings or geographies. The online system identifies a set of hotspots representing locations that are frequently used for pickup or drop off. The online system additionally identifies a set of points of interest. The points of interest are, for example, businesses, landmarks, building names, or other visible information related to the location. The online system scores the set of points of interest based on a relative value of displaying the point of interest for orientation or navigation purposes. The online system modifies a user interface to display a map of the area including the identified location boundaries, hotspots, and one or more points of interest based on the scoring.

A distributed computing system uses dynamically calculates a subset size for each of a plurality of load balancers. Each of a plurality of load balancers logs requests from client devices for connections to back-end servers and periodically sends a request report to a traffic aggregator, which aggregates the report requests from the load balancers in the corresponding zone. Each traffic aggregator sends the aggregated request data to a traffic controller, which aggregates the request data to determine a total number of requests received at the system. The total request data is transmitted through each traffic aggregator to each load balancer instance, which calculates a percentage of the total number of requests produced by the load balancer and determines a subset size based on the calculated percentage.

Abrégé

A method of dynamically adjusting access privileges of system identities. A set of access logs associated with a system are analyzed in order to generate a restricted access policy for an over privileged system identity. An initial access policy of the system identity is replaced with the restricted access policy and a continuous monitoring and access management (CMAM) service is initiated. Access logs are collected for a monitoring time window and an access denied error can be extracted from the access logs. The access denied error can be compared to an ignore list and/or the access denied error can be added to the ignore list. Authorization checks can be performed to determine if the action associated with the access denied error is authorized. If the action is authorized, the access policy is adjusted to allow for performance of the action.

Abrégé

A system predicts a value estimate for a user who provides a service that involves moving among geographical regions (e.g., a transportation service). The system determines the value estimate by identifying a sequence of time periods, each time period having an associated set of geographical regions. Possible transitions between geographical regions in different time periods are analyzed, for example, using statistical or machine-learned models, to determine likelihoods that the user will move between the geographical regions from one time period to another, and to determine expected values for a transition. Such models may be trained or developed using historical service data and user profile data stored by the system. Transitions are analyzed over a sequence of time periods to determine accumulated values associated with estimated overall values for each geographical region. The system predicts an overall value estimate for the user based on the accumulated values.

Abrégé

A network system can communicate with user and provider devices to facilitate the provision of a network-based service. The network system can identify optimal service providers to provide services requested by users. The network can utilize context data in matching service providers with users. In particular, the network system can determine, based on context data associated with a user, whether to perform pre-request matching for that user. A service provider who is pre-request matched with the user can be directed by the network system to relocate via a pre-request relocation direction. When the user submits the service request after the pre-request match, the network system can either automatically transmit an invitation to the pre-request matched service provider or can perform post-request matching to identify an optimal service provider for the user.

Abrégé

A transportation management system generates routing guidance from an origin location to a destination location by modifying edge weights in a graph of a geographic location to penalize difficult immediate maneuvers. Responsive to receiving a routing request, the system identifies a position of a provider device in a base map having edges representing road segments and nodes representing intersections between road segments. A sub-graph is generated for the edges in the base graph located up to a threshold distance from the origin location, and the system modifies the weight of one or more edges in the sub-graph corresponding to a difficult immediate maneuver. When applying a routing algorithm to generate the routing guidance, the system uses the edge weights of the generated sub-graph for a first portion of the routing guidance and the original edge weights of the base graph for a second portion of the routing guidance.

Abrégé

A network system provides interventions to providers to reduce the likelihood that its users will experience safety incidents. The providers provide service to the users such as transportation. Providers who are safe and have positive interpersonal behavior may be perceived by users as high quality providers. However, other providers may be more prone to cause safety incidents. A machine learning model is trained using features derived from service received by users of the network system. Randomized experiments and trained models predict the effectiveness of various interventions on a provider based on characteristics of the provider and the feedback received for the provider. As interventions are sent to providers, the change in feedback can indicate whether the intervention was effective. By providing messages proactively, the network system may prevent future safety incidents from occurring.

Abrégé

Provided are systems, methods, and computer-program products for generating a personalized item list. In various examples, a server computer on a network can receive a request that includes a user identifier. The computer can use the user identifier to look up a data model associated with the user identifier. The computer can further determine a geolocation, and use the geolocation to determine a list of items associated with an eatery at or near the geolocation. The computer can input the item list into the data model, for the data model to output a probability for each item, the probability indicating a likelihood that the user will select the item. The probabilities can be used to generate a personalized item list, which can be output onto the network for receipt by a computing device.

Abrégé

A network computer system operates to determine one or more transport service parameters for an upcoming scheduled event at a mass egress location. One or more activities associated with the scheduled event are monitored to determine whether to update the one or more transport service parameters. Based at least in part on the one or more transport parameters, a set of relocation parameters is determined, including (i) an intermediate location where the service provider is to be located to provide the user with the transport service, and (ii) an intermediate arrival time when the first service provider is to arrive at the intermediate location before the pickup time. Based at least in part on a current location of a selected service provider and the intermediate arrival time, a relocation time when the service provider is to initiate travel to the intermediate location is determined.

Abrégé

A network system enables a user to record media in connection with a user operating a service application to participate in a transport service. In examples, the network system includes a user computing device on which media is recorded and stored in an unrenderable state. The user can elect to make a media recording submission for a particular service activity (e.g., trip provided or received by user). In response to the media recording submission, the user computing device identifies one or more media files that contain media data which depict the service activity. The identified media foes are transmitted to a service computing system where the media files can be rendered.

Abrégé

A communication system develops an activity profile for multiple operators, where the activity profile of each operator is based, at least in part, on a recent location of the operator, as well as a set of transport parameters for the current assignment of the respective operator. A candidate set of operators can be matched to an open request, where the determination for each operator of the candidate set is based on the activity profile developed for that operator. When the candidate set of operators is determined, the communication system transmits a communication to at least one operator of the candidate set that identifies the at least one matched request.
