    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for automated extraction of product data from production data of visual media content are presented. Production documents are received from a publisher of visual media content. The production documents contain information related to inventory items used in the production of the visual media content. Data, which represents shoppable items, is extracted from the production documents. The extracted data is used to create an index of shoppable items associated with the visual media content. The index includes metadata associated with the shoppable items. User provided data indicating a desired shoppable item from the visual media content is received. The desired shoppable item is identified and item information for the desired shoppable item is produced.

    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for authenticating a garment are presented. The authentication system can include a code reader configured to receive an image of a garment. An asymmetrical pattern can be woven in a section of the garment. The code reader can decode weft and warp information from weave lines in the asymmetrical pattern and determine a validation code based on the weft and warp information. Additionally, an authentication system can access, from an authentication database, authentication codes associated with authentic garments. The authentication system can calculate a confidence score based on a comparison of the validation code with one of the authentication codes. Subsequently, a publication system can cause a presentation, on a display of a device, a verification that the garment is authentic when the confidence score is above a predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: Example methods and systems directed to an Alert Manager are described. According to various embodiments, the Alert Manager detects receipt of a message. The message includes a selectable functionality for accessing an external resource and message data indicative of a source of the message. The Alert Manager predicts when a recipient of the message will interact with the selectable functionality. Prior to the recipient's predicted interaction with the selectable functionality, the Alert Manager generates a message alert feature based on a degree of a difference between the external resource and the source of the message.

    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for determining a crowd response for a crowd are presented. One method is disclosed that includes receiving an audio signal that includes concurrent responses from two or more respondents, determining the concurrent responses from the audio signal without regard to the identity of the respondents, and generating a crowd based on the concurrent responses.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating new product images are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes identifying, via hardware processing circuitry, a template for a category of products, the template defining locations of attributes of products belonging to the category, identifying, via the hardware processing circuitry, common attributes of products of the category based on the template, averaging, via the hardware processing circuitry, corresponding pixel values across images representing the products having the common attributes, generating, via the hardware processing circuitry, a new product image representing a new product based on the averaged pixel values; and generating, via the hardware processing circuitry, a modified new product image by varying attributes of the new product based on the locations of the attributes defined by the template.

    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.
