Abstract: Under an embodiment of the invention, a computer system includes a user interface (UI) for virtual tours of modeled real estate. The UI includes three ways to navigate the modeled real estate. The first navigation element is a 3D UI element that provides a 3D view of the property and enables the user to freely navigate in the XY plane of the virtual model. The second navigation element is a 2D map of the real property overlaid on a portion of the 3D UI element. The 2D map overlay enables navigation in the XY plane of the virtual model. The third navigation element is a 1D text element of the real property overlaid on a portion of the 3D UI element. The 1D text overlay enables navigation along the Z axis or the XY plane of the virtual model.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing a platform to provide virtual storefronts to consumers. Environmental elements are associated with specific consumer services on computer server. A user in the environment takes audio or visual recordings of an environmental element and uploads the recordings to the server. The server determines the appropriate consumer service associated with the recorded environmental element and provides the user with a reference to the service. Accordingly, any space, such as a bus stop, subway or train terminal, movie theater, or airport, may be turned into a virtual store.

Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for generating and providing recommendations of products are provided. For example, content is extracted from a message sent to a user. The content is evaluated to identify a product identifier corresponding to a product title of a product. If the product identifier is a truncated version of the product title, then a database of product titles and frequencies of occurrence of the product titles is used to complete the product title. A model is used to infer a product category for the product title. Matching scores are assigned to products within a product category based upon weighted attributes. A recommendation is provided to the user for a product having a matching score greater than a matching threshold.

Abstract: Techniques for creating a user network based on user interest in a product are described. For example, a first search query is received from a first client device. The first client device is associated with a first user. A second search query is received from a second client device. The second client device is associated with a second user. The first search query is matched to a product. The second search query is matched to the product. A user network corresponding to the product is created. The first user is added to the user network based on the matching of the first search query to the product. The second user is added to the user network based on the matching of the second search query to the product.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to sway a user to increase purchase desire, by constructing a system that successively links related information to one piece of information, thereby making it easy to grasp related information. In the present invention, a reception unit 101 receives an evaluation of a user U2 with respect to content C1 recommended by a user U1, and a recommendation by the user U2 about content C2 determined by the user U2 to be related to the content C1. A management unit 102 manages user information of the user U2 in association with content information of the content C1 and content information of the content C2. When a user U3 accesses the content C1, a presentation unit 103 presents to the user U3, on the basis of the mutual correspondence relationship of these pieces of information, at least one piece of information from among these pieces of information. Due to the foregoing, the present invention solves the abovementioned problem.

The database unit receives information submitted by a plurality of vendors. This information identifies products to be offered for sale and indicates terms. The terms comparison unit retrieves, from the database unit, primary and secondary sets of terms for a product offered for sale by a vendor; retrieves an alternative set of terms for at least one equivalent product offered by another vendor; compares the primary set of terms to the alternative set of terms; and if alternative set of terms are preferable to the primary set of terms, compares the secondary set of terms to the alternative set of terms.

Abstract: Conventional user interfaces for large commercial ecosystems typically require a seller partner to scroll around and switch views many times to find the right operational service or data. A simplified user interface that includes limited information about those operational services enables the seller partner to more quickly and efficiently learn about, configure, and use those operational services which are available to them. The limited information may include eligibility information, seller partner-specific information associated with the operational service, and information about the operational service, allowing rapid navigation and decision making. Once enrolled in an operational service, the simplified user interface facilitates administration of the operational service.

One method includes, predicting, using a model, a plurality of recommended products, by determining a time span associated with a user identifier; retrieving at least one query submitted by a user associated with the user identifier during the time span; extracting attributes; determining a product category based on the extracted attributes; generating a list of products based on the determined product category; generating a list of recommended products based on the generated list of products; and modifying a user interface element associated with a webpage to include the generated list of recommended products.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for presenting recommendations for suggested activities. One example method includes receiving a first signal from a device that includes a current context of the device that includes location information for the device. The device is associated with a particular profile. A preferred language associated with the device is determined from the profile. The profile is analyzed to determine a contextual activity preference associated with the device. A repository of establishment information is searched to identify an activity that matches the current context associated with the device and the contextual activity preference. An activity description of the identified activity is translated from a foreign language to the preferred language to create a translated activity description. A second signal is transmitted to the device that includes the translated activity description for presentation at the device.
