Abstract: Methods and systems are used for providing user and multi-user smart feedback in a smart feedback system (SFS). As an example, a first personalized feedback request is provided to a first device during a first visualization of a first personalized avatar associated with a first user. First feedback of the first user captured by the first device is received. The first feedback is analyzed based on a first user profile and the first personalized feedback request associated with a first offer associated with a first participant. A first recommendation is determined based on the first user profile, the analyzed first feedback of the first user, the first offer associated with the first participant, and a second user profile of an associated second user. The first recommendation is provided to the first device during the first visualization of the first personalized avatar associated with the first user.

Abstract: Methods and systems are used for providing a traveling avatar in a smart feedback system (SFS). As an example, a user associated with a first interaction with the SFS from a first device at a first location is identified. A first visualization of a personalized avatar associated with the user is provided to the first device. A first personalized feedback request is provided to the first device during the first visualization. First feedback of the user captured by the first device is received in response to the first personalized feedback request. The user associated with a second interaction with the SFS from a second device at the first location is identified. A second visualization of the personalized avatar is provided to the second device. A second personalized feedback request is provided to the second device. Second feedback of the user captured by the second device is received.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for visual search, discovery, and attribution in e-commerce systems. One example method includes receiving an image to be used as a basis for a visual search. At least one clothing item in the image and a determined clothing type for each clothing item are identified. A highlighted image is generated that includes highlights of the identified at least one clothing item and determined clothing types. The highlighted image is provided. A selection of a selected clothing item on the highlighted image is received. In response to receiving the selection of the selected clothing item, a visual search is performed that includes searching a clothing item repository to find similar clothing items that are visually similar to the selected clothing item. Information for the similar clothing items is provided in response to the selection of the selected clothing item.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for secure data sharing. The method comprises: storing, by a data owner or an entity authorized by the data owner, via a data management user interface, in a decentralized data storage, data in an encrypted format; storing, via the data management user interface, in a blockchain, information indicating the data owner and a reference to the data stored in the decentralized data storage; and storing, by the data owner, via the data management user interface, in the blockchain, information indicating consent given to one or more authorized users for using the data.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for providing digital promotions using digital collectibles. One example method includes receiving an image file from a client application associated with a particular user profile. Image recognition is performed on the image file to identify at least one product associated with a digital collectible promotion. A digital collectible associated with the at least one product is identified. A first offer is transmitted, for presentation in the client application, for an availability of the digital collectible upon a transaction including the at least one product. An indication of a transaction associated with the particular user profile that includes the at least one product is received, from a merchant. Instructions to enable at least one digital collectible at the client application for the particular user profile are transmitted, in response to the transaction.
