Use Cases & Benefits
- Implements the core algorithm that powers the personalized For You feed on X by combining in-network and out-of-network posts, filtering, and ranking them using a transformer model.
- Enables fine-grained, real-time content ranking and filtering with modular pipelines and transparency into filtering rules, supporting complex visibility decisions per viewer.
- Use for building scalable, personalized social media feeds that blend followed and recommended content with advanced ML-based ranking.
- Use for experimenting with content visibility filtering and moderation by integrating label-driven rules and user-specific settings.
- Use for developing and deploying transformer-based ranking models with synthetic data generation and multi-source candidate retrieval in Rust.

From the README
This repository contains the core code that determines which posts a viewer sees in the For You feed on X. It combines in-network content (from accounts the viewer follows) with out-of-network content (discovered through ML-based retrieval and other mechanisms), filters content based on a variety of inputs, and ranks posts using a transformer model.
