    Abstract: Technologies are shown for buyer initiated automatic seller account generation where a buyer client receives an identification of a purchase item, generates an item token corresponding to the purchase item, and provides the item token to a seller client. The seller client authenticates a seller user with an authentication service, such as a biometric authentication service, receives an authentication token corresponding to the seller user, and sends an account creation request with the item token and the authentication token to an account creation service. The account creation service receives the account creation request, sends a user information request to the authentication service with the authentication token and receives seller information for the seller user from the authentication service. The account creation service creates a seller user account using the seller information, commits a purchase transaction for the purchase item, and sends an item purchase confirmation to the buyer client.

    Abstract: Systems and methods change a user interface for the purpose of pairing a shipping container with an item that is intended to be shipped in the shipping container. Example embodiments include a machine-implemented method for accessing a shipping request, detecting a radio signal from a candidate container using a radio receiver, detecting an impact between a pairing device and a query container using an accelerometer, determining that the query container is the candidate container, and generating a shipping record that correlates the shipping container and the item. The device can further determine that the query container is the candidate container based on the signal strength and change in signal strength of one or more signals. The device can further detect an impact between the pairing device and the query container by ranking one or more sets of acceleration data collected by the accelerometer.

    Abstract: A system and method for a trusted fulfillment agent network system is described. A network of trusted fulfillment agents is generated for a seller in an online marketplace. A transaction between a buyer and the seller corresponding to a listing of the seller in the online marketplace is accessed. A request is generated to the network of trusted fulfillment agents of the seller to fulfill a shipment of an item from the listing to the buyer on behalf of the seller.

    Abstract: A recommendation system leverages multi-target search to provide item listing recommendations and/or query suggestions. For a given input image with multiple objects, multi-target search uses object detection to detect each object, and stores complementary object data associating each object from the image. Additionally, a search of an item listing datastore is performed using each object from the image as a search query. Based on item listings returned as search results, complementary item listings data associating item listings is stored. In some configurations, the complementary item listings data is also used to train a machine learning model to predict complementary item listings for a given item listing. When an input item listing is received, item listing recommendations and/or query suggestions are determined for the input item listing using the complementary object data, the complementary item listing data, and/or the machine learning model.

    Abstract: Technologies are shown for generating process flow graphs from system trace data that involve obtaining raw distributed trace data for a system, aggregating the raw distributed trace data into aggregated distributed trace data, generating a plurality of process flow graphs from the aggregated distributed trace data, and storing the plurality of process flow graphs in a graphical store. A first critical path can be determined from the plurality of process flow graphs based on an infrastructure design for the system and a process flow graph corresponding to the first critical path provided for graphical display. Certain examples can determine a second critical path involving a selected element of the first critical path and provide the process flow graph for the second critical path for display. Some examples pre-process the aggregated distributed trace data to repair incorrect traces. Other examples merge included process flow graphs into longer graphs.

    Abstract: Physical object boundary detection techniques and systems are described. In one example, an augmented reality module generates three dimensional point cloud data. This data describes depths at respective points within a physical environment that includes the physical object. A physical object boundary detection module is then employed to filter the point cloud data by removing points that correspond to a ground plane. The module then performs a nearest neighbor search to locate a subset of the points within the filtered point cloud data that correspond to the physical object. Based on this subset, the module projects the subset of points onto the ground plane to generate a two-dimensional boundary. The two-dimensional boundary is then extruded based on a height determined from a point having a maximum distance from the ground plane from the filtered cloud point data.
