    Abstract: A search system performs item searches using morphed images. Given two or more input images of objects, the search system uses a generative model to generate one or more morphed images. Each morphed image shows an object of the object type of the input images. Additionally, the object in each morphed image combines visual characteristics of the objects in the input images. The morphed images may be presented to a user, who may select a particular morphed image for searching. A search is performed using a morphed image to identify items that are visually similar to the object in the morphed image. Search results for the items identified from the search are returned for presentation.

    Abstract: Technologies are shown for function level permissions control for smart contract execution to implement permissions policy on a blockchain. Permissions control rules control function calls at a system level utilizing function boundary detection instrumentation in a kernel that executes smart contracts. The detection instrumentation generates a call stack that represents a chain of function calls in the kernel for a smart contract. The permissions control rules are applied to the call stack to implement permissions control policy. Permissions control rules can use dynamic state data in the function call chain. If the dynamic state data observed in function call chains does not meet the requirements defined in the permissions control rules, then the function call can be blocked from executing or completing execution. The permissions control rules can be generated for a variety of different entities, such as a domain, user or resource.

    Abstract: One or more of the systems, apparatuses, or methods discussed herein can include a quality score for a plurality of item listings or collections of item listings. Data sparseness can be avoided, as the quality score is based on inherent properties of the listing. An item listing can be recommended to a user based on the quality score. In one or more embodiments, a method can include determining a plurality of quality scores including a quality score for each of a plurality of item listings or a plurality of collections of item listings, the quality scores determined independent of a user's attributes and independent of the user's contextual information, the contextual information corresponding to details of the user's access to a website, and recommending an item listing or collection of item listings to a user based on the quality scores and the contextual information.

    Abstract: Techniques for mapping size information associated with a client to target brands, garments, sizes, shapes, and styles for which there is no standardized correlation. The size information associated with a client may be generated by modeling client garments, accessing computer aided drawing (CAD) files associated with client garments, or by analyzing a history of garment purchases associated with the client. Information for target garments may be generated in a similar fashion. A system may then create a standardized scale with a set of sizes for a target, and map a client base size to that standardized size scale. Similar matching and mapping may also be done with shape and style considerations. A recommendation based on the mapping may then be communicated to the client.

    Abstract: A system and method for conducting battery charge aware communications is disclosed. A system receives a content request from a client device, wherein the content request indicates one or more content items. The system retrieves the one or more requested content items from a content database at the system. The system determines whether the content request includes current remaining battery power data for the client device. In response to determining that the content request includes the current remaining battery power data for the client device, the system determines whether a current remaining battery power is below a predetermined threshold. In response to determining that the current remaining battery power is below the predetermined threshold, the system analyzes the one or more requested content items to determine core content sections. The system transmits the determined core content sections to the client device.

    Abstract: A user may use a client device to create a draft document by interacting with a server. The user provides an image in a message (e.g., a multimedia messaging service (MMS) message) from a different device. The server receives the image and modifies the draft (e.g., by updating a web page being displayed on the client device). This process allows the user to type text for a draft using a client device that includes a keyboard (e.g., a desktop or laptop computer) and to add an image to the draft using a second device that includes a camera (e.g., a mobile phone or tablet computer) without having to transfer the image from the second device to the first device.
