Adjusting a value associated with presenting an online system user with a link that initiates a conversation with an entity via a messaging application
An online system presents content to its users, in which the content includes links that launch a messaging application and initiate conversations via the application. The system receives information indicating that negative experiences occurred during the conversations and may use this information and attributes of entities participating in the conversations to train a model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of a negative experience. Upon determining an opportunity to present a user with a link that launches the application and initiates a potential conversation with an entity via the application, the system applies the model to predict a likelihood of an occurrence of the negative experience by the user during the potential conversation based on the entity's attributes. Based on the predicted likelihood, the system adjusts a value associated with presenting the link and passes the adjusted value to a process that selects content for presentation to the user.

A mobile client device is localized based on a captured image by identifying where the client device is located from a set of known locations. The set of known locations is associated with a set of regions, where each region is associated with a set of key frames representing the important features of the region. Latent vectors and keypoints are calculated for each of the key frames and an image captured by the client device. The system compares the latent vectors of the captured image to the latent vectors associated with the regions to determine a subset of similar regions. The system compares the keypoints of the captured image to the keypoints associated with the regions in the subset to determine a best match. This determined location is considered the region of the client device and may be used with other localization information to maintain localization of the client device.

A platform system receives sensor data describing the state and orientation of a tracked object and models the pose of the tracked object to determine user interactions with the platform system. To ensure that incorrect sensor data due to a saturation event or connection loss does not impact user experience, the platform system identifies regions for correction in sensor data streams based on the sensor data being at or above a saturation limit or not being received. The platform system predicts sensor data for an identified region of correction by applying a fit corresponding to points adjacent to the region for correction and determining predicted sensor data using the applied fit. The predicted sensor data is used to correct the modeled pose for the tracked object.

A haptic perceptual bandwidth of an electronic computing device having an embedded actuator is determined by using information from the database. A user interface allows modification of time-amplitude values and transient values based on the determined haptic perceptual bandwidth. Authored time amplitude values are aggregated in authored audio descriptor data, which is passed to a transformation module that fits the data into the haptic perceptual bandwidth and implements algorithms to produce transformed audio descriptor data. Finally, the transformed audio descriptor data is converted to the haptic data file.
