    Abstract: Generating themes for different item offers is described. An item listing system receives a request for a target item and generates themes for the target item by grouping offers based on their properties. The item listing system then determines a display order for the themes based on user behavior data. The item listing system then communicates the themes and display order to a client device from which the request was received, causing the client device to display an interface including at least a subset of the themes, arranged according to the display order. Themes including offers determined to be more appealing to the user of the client device are displayed more prominently relative to other themes. The item listing system is further configured to dynamically modify the display order in real-time based on offer changes, such that the interface continuously provides correct information describing available offers for the target item.

    Abstract: Sample delta monitoring is described herein. In one or more implementations, first and second experimental groups are defined in a randomized controlled trial. A first set of data indicative of a first experimental group in the randomized controlled trial is received. A second set of data indicative of a second experimental group in the randomized controlled trial is received. Based on sample counts of the first and second sets of data, an indication is generated that the experimental groups in the randomized controlled trial are skewed.

    Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments for electronic commerce user interfaces. In some embodiments, a device is used to create an account on an electronic commerce system or create a listing for an item for sale on the ecommerce system. A first identifier of the device is stored by the ecommerce system. When a listing is generated by the account, an image representing an item for sale is included as part of the listing. The disclosed embodiments compare a second device identifier of a device used to capture the image with the first device identifier. If the two identifiers identify the same device, this provides an indication of confidence that the seller is in possession of the item represented by the image. This indication of confidence is then displayed when the listing is displayed to prospective buyers.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for transforming an API authorization to a UX session are provided. An authorization server receives, from a third-party application developed by a third-party, a request to access a user experience (UX) session on behalf of a user. The request comprises an access token previously granted by the authorization server to the third-party application in response to consent, by the user, to allow the third-party application to perform actions on behalf of the user. In one embodiment, this previous authorization comprises an Open Authorization (OAuth). In response to receiving the request the authorization server transforms the access token into a single sign on (SSO) link with a session token. The authorization server then returns the SSO link that includes the session token the third-party application hosted by the third-party. The SSO link causes the third-party application to redirect the user to the UX session corresponding to the SSO link.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer storage media for implementing a nuanced-color search and recommendation system. Employing various techniques described herein, an improved search engine for categorizable items is provided to generate accurate color-based search results and recommendations that are relevant to a nuanced color provided as a search parameter. In various implementations, digital assets that depict categorizeable items can be analyzed to characterize the depicted items with, among other things, a particular shade of a determined dominant color. In this way, categorizeable items can be searched based at least in part on a selected shade of a particular dominant color to generate a primary search result. In further embodiments, other categorizeable items can be generated as recommendations based on characteristics of the primary search result. That is, other items not necessarily subject of the search, can be provided as recommended items if predefined rules dictate that such items may complement the categorizable items included in the primary search result.
