    Abstract: According to example embodiments, an Image View Aggregator identifies a frontal view of an item within an image. The Image View Aggregator identifies at least one reflection view of the item within the image. Each reflection view of the item having been captured off a corresponding reflective physical surface. The Image View Aggregator extracts the frontal view of the item and each reflection view of the item from the image. The Image View Aggregator generates a representation of the item based at least on the extracted frontal view of the item and each extracted reflection view of the item.

    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for reading magnetic information by a mobile device are presented. In example embodiments, the mobile device comprises a housing having an integrated surface for swiping a magnetic swipe card and a magnetometer, positioned within the housing, for detecting direction and strength of magnetic fields to read magnetic information from a variety of sources and to produce digital magnetometer output signals. The digital magnetometer output signals represent magnetic information derived from the magnetic swipe card and from the Earth's magnetic fields (or other sources). Each of the digital magnetometer output signals having a magnitude related to the strength of the detected magnetic fields. The mobile device determines at least some of the digital magnetometer output signals represent the magnetic information derived from the magnetic swipe card and provides that information to a magnetic card application for processing. The mobile device determine at least some of the digital magnetometer output signals represent the magnetic information derived from the Earth's magnetic fields and provides that information to a compass application for processing.

    Abstract: An enhanced product recommendation service observes a user engaging in an activity to automatically recommend products that facilitate performance of the activity. Photographs and/or video of the user performing the activity may be analyzed to identify an output that results from the activity and/or an activity task sequence that includes multiple tasks associated with completing the activity. Then, the enhanced product recommendation service may identify a product that is usable to generate the output(s) of the activity and/or complete the activity without performing one or more individual tasks of the activity task sequence. The product may be an existing product. Alternatively, the product may be a customized product that is designed based on observing the user engage in the activity. Physical measurements of the customized product may be determined based on various measurements determined by analyzing the photographs and/or video of the user performing the activity.

    Abstract: An attribute correlation system reduces network traffic and processing cycles associated with impromptu item selections by generating attribute preference models based on disparate attribute spectrums. The attribute correlation system deploys the attribute preference models to select individual items from various disparate “candidate item categories.” Generally described, the attribute preference models facilitate analyzing item sets across a wide variety of disparate “candidate” item categories to preemptively identify individual items for a user. In this way, the individual items may be identified and, ultimately, selected for the user even absent any indication that the user has searched for otherwise identified these items or even other items from within the disparate “candidate” item categories. The “candidate” item categories may be determined to be disparate from one another based on a relationship void existing such that predefined relationships are missing between these “candidate” item categories.
