Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for performing ancillary activity. A device activity being performed by a user device of a user is detected. Attribute data associated with a plurality of attribute sources is accessed. A user preference indicating a preference for performing on a secondary user device a complementary activity corresponding to the device activity is inferred. Based on the inferred user preference, the secondary user device is identified according to a device status of the secondary user device, the device status indicating a device capability to perform the complementary activity. The complementary activity to be performed on the secondary user device is generated by analyzing at least one of the device activity, a device functionality of the secondary user device, and the user preference. Instructions to perform the complementary activity are transmitted to the secondary user device.

Abstract: Techniques for sharing item images based on a similarity score are described. For example, a machine receives a description of an item from a user device. The machine accesses an existing image. The existing image is associated with one or more existing descriptions of the item. The machine selects, based on a description selection rule, the one or more existing descriptions corresponding to the existing image for comparison with the description received from the user device. The machine generates a similarity score for the existing image based on the comparison between the description received from the user device and the one or more existing descriptions corresponding to the existing image. The machine causes a display, in a user interface of the user device, of a number of existing images having corresponding similarity scores that exceed a threshold value.

Abstract: A network service or application can receive dietary goals or conditions for a user or group of users. The network can determine threshold dietary amounts that users can receive over a predetermined time period to satisfy the goals or conditions. The network can monitor user consumption over the predetermined time period by collecting data from heterogeneous data streams (e.g., data associated with different structures, data types, types of data store, sources, processing rates, etc.), processing the data, storing the data using a distributive processing framework, and exposing optimized views into the data to provide smart virtual shopping cart functionality. The network can evaluate user consumption and food items placed into a virtual shopping cart to determine whether purchasing the items satisfy the thresholds, and if not, issue warnings, provide recommendations for substitute food items, and/or take other appropriate actions.

Abstract: Storage space is reclaimed by cleaning and compacting data objects where data objects are stored by immutable storage. A storage area of which space needs to be reclaimed is identified. Active and stale data objects stored in a storage area are identified, and only active data objects are transferred to a shadow storage area from the storage area when recovering storage space. I/O operations can be fulfilled from the storage area and the shadow storage area. Compaction requests and I/O requests are throttled according to QOS parameters. Recovery of storage space does not cause a failure to meet performance requirements for any storage volume.

Abstract: Systems and methods for visualization of an item in an environment using augmented reality are provided. Environment image data containing an image of an environment is received. A selection of an item for placement into an indicated location of the environment is received. An item image of the selected item is scaled based on dimensions determined from the environment image data for the environment. The scaled item image is augmented into the image of the environment at the indicated location to generate an augmented reality image that also includes information for the item. The augmented reality image is displayed on a device of a user.

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: In various example embodiments, a system and method for dynamically generating user interface elements and associated values are presented. An item listing and profile data are accessed. A set of user interface elements are dynamically generated based on the item listing and the profile data, with each user interface element configured to perform an action on the item listing. A set of values are dynamically determined, with each value being associated with a user interface element of the set of user interface elements. The set of user interface elements are then caused to be presented within the item listing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for mining feedback are described. A set of one or more lexical patterns associated with one or more of a suggestion and a defect report are determined and the set of one or more lexical patterns are matched against a plurality of feedback items to generate a distance learning training set. A distance learning technique is applied to the distance learning training set to generate a distance learning model and the distance learning model is used to identify one or more candidate feedback items of the plurality of feedback items, each of which is one or more of a candidate suggestion and a candidate defect report.

Abstract: A search engine provides customized search results in response to a search query using a group search ranker. The customized search results may be determined for a user based on the user's association with a user group having common preferences. Preferences for users may be learned through historical user information that includes interactions by users with websites on the Internet. Users may be grouped based on these preferences, and the user group may have an associated group search ranker. When the user enters a search query at a search engine, the search engine may identify a user group and retrieve the group search ranker. The group search ranker may be used to rank relevant search results identified based on the search query. The ranked search results may be provided for presentation to a user at a user computing device.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for offer recommendations for unsuccessful buyers. An offer recommendation system determines that an offer submitted for a listing posted to an online marketplace was unsuccessful. The offer recommendation system identifies a similar listing posted to the online marketplace and transmits a notification message to the seller that posted the similar listing. The notification message identifies the amount of the unsuccessful offer.
