    Abstract: A system may identify a set of items depicted within a set of images, where the set of items are associated with a first product category and a second product category of an online marketplace. The system may determine a complementary category relationship between the first and second product categories based on a relative frequency that items associated with the first and second product categories are depicted together within the set of images. The system may receive a query image depicting a query item associated with the first product category, and may utilize the complementary category relationship to identify and recommend items of the second product category that are complementary (e.g., visually and stylistically complementary) to the query item.

    Abstract: A system may receive, from a client device, a user input indicating a product that is to be listed for sale via an online marketplace, and may transmit an instruction for the client device to capture a video of the product from a set of multiple perspectives including a reference perspective. The system may receive the video of the product, where the video includes a set of multiple image frames depicting the product from the set of multiple of perspectives. The system may extract a subset of image frames of the set of multiple of image frames that depict the product from one or more cardinal views, where the one or more cardinal views are determined relative to the reference perspective. The system may then generate an item listing for listing the product for sale via the online marketplace, where the item listing includes the subset of image frames.

    Abstract: An application configured to be dynamically and/or incrementally updated to tailor capabilities of the application to areas of interest of a user is disclosed. The application receives one or more task-specific modules for enhancing a task-specific capability of the application. The one or more task-specific modules are identified from among a plurality of task-specific modules, based on user data indicative of interaction of the user with an electronic marketplace. The one or more task-specific modules are used to update a general module configured to implement the task-specific capability of the application to create a customized application. The customized application is used to perform a task-specific operation based on an input provided by the user, and a result of the task-specific operation to be presented to the user.

    Abstract: Extended reality auction techniques are described that support conducting live auctions in an extended reality environment, such as augmented or virtual reality environments. Image data, for instance, is received by a computing device from a first computing device depicting an item for auction. An extended reality auction system initiates an auction for the item based on identifying that at least part of the item is in the image data. The image data is provided to a second computing device for display in the extended reality environment during the auction. Responsive to determining that a criterion of the auction is not satisfied by the image data, remedial action is initiated by the extended reality auction system.

    Abstract: A web-based item listing platform provides item listings that users can create or search. Item listings can be generated using structured information extracted while capturing an item listing video of the item. During creation of the item listing video, input prompts are provided to the user that cause a mobile device to provide an input request, such as taking an image of a specific feature of the item or providing some other item description information. During the item listing video, image recognition models may also be employed to determine other item description information, such as the color, the brand, and the like. The item listing can be generated from the item listing video by populating a set of structured data elements associated with an item description type. Each structured data element is populated with the item description information corresponding to the associated item description type.

    Abstract: An application server associated with an online marketplace may receive a set of images of an item, spatial information associated with each image of the set of images indicating a relative spatial location to the item for each image, and viewing direction information indicating a viewing direction relative to the item for each image. The application server may then generate a neural radiance field model of the item in a three dimensional space based on the set of images, the spatial information, and the viewing direction information, and may generate a set of spherical harmonics for the neural radiance field model based on predicting one or more spherical harmonic coefficients using the set of images, the spatial information, and the viewing direction information. The application server may then output a three dimensional model of the item generated based on the set of spherical harmonics.

    Abstract: A video is provided to viewers using a web-based platform without restricted audio, such as a copyrighted soundtrack. To do so, a video comprising at least two audio layers is received. The audio layers can include separate and distinct audio layers or a mix of audio from separate sources. A restricted audio element is identified in a first audio layer and a speech element is identified in a second audio layer. A stitched text string can be generated by performing speech-to-text on both audio layers and removing the text corresponding to the restricted audio element of the second audio layer. When playing back the video, a portion of the video is muted based on the restricted audio element. A voice synthesizer is employed to generate audible sound during the muted portion using the stitched text string.
