Abstract: This document describes, among other things, systems and methods for managing distributed parallel builds. A computer-implemented method to manage parallel builds, comprises identifying one or more software components in a software project, wherein each software component includes an executable binary file; determining a build configuration for each software component, wherein the build configuration includes a mapping from each software component to one or more build servers; and building each software component using the mapped one or more build servers in the corresponding build configuration, wherein the building includes compiling one or more source files associated with each software component to one or more object files, by distributing the one or more source files to one or more compilation machines.

Abstract: A search engine is provided that generates search results proportional to a natural distribution. Search results identified and ranked by the search engine for a search query are redistributed so that a fixed number of top ranked search results include search result attributes proportional to the natural distribution, as determined from interaction tracking of prior search results. A natural distribution index mapping prior search queries to search result attributes and a proportional representation of interactions with the search result attributes is generated. The natural distribution is determined from the proportional representation of interactions. The search engine redistributes the fixed number of top ranked search results by minimizing a gap between the ranked set of search results for the search query and the natural distribution.

Abstract: A system and method for standardizing user interface elements are presented. A first application is identified having a higher use metric than a second application, the first application including one or more user interface elements that have one or more respective parameters. The second application has one or more user interface elements that are similar to the user interface elements of the first application and has one or more respective parameters that are different than the respective parameters of the user interface elements of the first application. A determination of similarity is made between the user interface elements applications based upon at least one predetermined criterion. Based on the determination, one or more parameters of the user interface elements of the second application are modified to match one or more parameters of the first application.

Abstract: In various example embodiments, heavy document object model (DOM) elements in a heavy web page are removed directly from a DOM tree subsequent to a request being received to navigate to another web page but before the web browser actually navigates to that other web page. In one example embodiment, the heavy DOM elements are deleted from the previous page during an ‘onbeforeunload’ event using a scripting language such as Javascript, to ensure that the render of the next page starts faster.

Abstract: Methods and system for item matching are described. In one embodiment, compatibility-based text for an item may be accessed. A compatibility identifier may be identified based on the compatibility-based text. The compatibility identifier may be associated with an item cluster. The compatibility identifier may be used to identify a plurality of matching items. A result may be provided based on identification of the plurality of matching items. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for authenticating an account via a hands-free gesture, such as a tap, pattern of taps, or other physical gesture not requiring a user to hold a computing device. A user can initiate a transaction to purchase an item by interacting with a first computing device (e.g., electronic kiosk, point-of-sale terminal, automated checkout device, etc.). The first computing device can receive a request from the user to purchase the item. In response, the first computing device can broadcast an authentication request. The user can perform the hands-free gesture for detection by a second computing device (e.g., the user's mobile device). The second computing device can transmit information associated with the hands-free gesture in response to the authentication request. The first computing device can authenticate the user based on the information associated with the hands-free gesture.

Abstract: Example methods and systems are directed to a managed inventory. A database may store information regarding items owned by a user. The information regarding an item may include a quantity owned and one or more triggering events. Based on the occurrence of a triggering event, an order for the item may be placed without user intervention. Data to the database may be provided by one or more sensors. Triggering events may be defined in terms of sensor data. The triggering event may be defined by a user or through machine learning. The order may be placed using a predetermined modality or a dynamically-determined modality based on one or more criteria, such as price, shipping speed, and the urgency of the order.

Abstract: A distributed search system can be partitioned into buckets based on entities and time periods. Addresses for the partitions can be formed from entity parameters and time period parameters. An indexing scheme for the partitions can be maintained at one or more search clusters, which may be geographically separate from one another. Consistency can be maintained across the search clusters though routing queries between clusters based at least in part on the status of partitions.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving a search process are provided. A networked system accesses, from online sources, fashion trend information including pictures illustrating fashion trends. The networked system determines a plurality of top fashion trends, and extracts, using an image detection algorithm, images of fashion items from a picture associated with each of the top fashion trends. Using the extracted images, the networked system performs an image search for matching inventory items. The networked system then generates and stored a plurality of fashion trend user interfaces, whereby the plurality of fashion trend user interfaces each comprise selectable elements that represent the plurality of top fashion trends. At runtime, the networked system receives an indication to initiate a search for fashion by trends, and in response, accesses the plurality of stored fashion trend user interfaces. One of the plurality of stored fashion trend user interfaces is presented on a user device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing keyword predictions for proposed titles are provided. In example embodiments, a network system receives, from a user during a publication creation process, a proposed title for a publication associated with an item. The proposed title includes a plurality of tokens, whereby the plurality of tokens comprises at least all non-stock words in the proposed title. Based on the proposed title, the network system identifies an importance of each token of the plurality of tokens in the proposed title. The network system then causes presentation of a user interface that visually indicates the importance of each token of the plurality of tokens in the proposed title.
