Determining a model refresh rate
First Claim
1. A computerized method for determining a model refresh rate for a model representing a list of network user identifiers, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a processing circuit, a first model representing the list of network user identifiers at a first time and a second model representing the list of network user identifiers at a second time, wherein the first time is prior to the second time;
calculating, by the processing circuit, a level of similarity between the first model and the second model;
comparing, by the processing circuit, the level of similarity to a threshold value; and
determining, by the processing circuit, the model refresh rate for the list of network user identifiers based in part on a comparison between the level of similarity and the threshold value,wherein if the level of similarity is less than the threshold value, the model refresh rate is a predetermined rate.

Abstract
A computerized method for determining a model refresh rate for a model representing a list of network user identifiers includes receiving a first and a second model representing the list at a first and a second time, respectively. Similarity between the first and second model is calculated. If the similarity is less than a threshold value, the model refresh rate is a predetermined rate. If the similarity is equal to or exceeds the threshold value, the model refresh rate is decreased to a less frequent rate. A similarity between a reference model and a selected model in a same content category may be calculated. If the similarity is less than a threshold value, the model refresh rate for the selected model is a predetermined rate. If the similarity is equal to or exceeds the threshold value, the model refresh rate for the reference model is applied to the selected model.
