Abstract: An online concierge shopping system identifies recipes to users to encourage them to include items from the recipes in orders. The online concierge system maintains user embeddings for users and recipe embeddings for recipes. For users who have not placed orders, recipes are recommended based on global user interactions with recipes. Users who have previously ordered items from recipes are suggested recipes selected based on a similarity of their user embedding to recipe embeddings. Users who have purchased items but not from recipes are compared to a set of similar users based on the user embeddings, and recipes with which users of the set of similar users interacted are used for identifying recipes to the users. A recipe graph may be maintained by the online concierge system to identify similarities between recipes for expanding candidate recipes to suggest to users.

Abstract: Generating themes for different item offers is described. An item listing system receives a request for a target item and generates themes for the target item by grouping offers based on their properties. The item listing system then determines a display order for the themes based on user behavior data. The item listing system then communicates the themes and display order to a client device from which the request was received, causing the client device to display an interface including at least a subset of the themes, arranged according to the display order. Themes including offers determined to be more appealing to the user of the client device are displayed more prominently relative to other themes. The item listing system is further configured to dynamically modify the display order in real-time based on offer changes, such that the interface continuously provides correct information describing available offers for the target item.

Abstract: A user conducts activities, such as researching a product online or visiting a store that sells the product. A user then utilizes a risk analysis system to receive and store user activity data for the user's activities. When a purchase attempt is made with the user's financial account, a merchant sends a transaction request to the risk analysis system. The risk analysis system locates a record for the user and determines whether the product is identified in the user activity data. If the product is identified, the risk analysis system provides a risk score to the merchant indicating that the transaction is unlikely fraudulent. Alternatively, identification of the product provides a positive factor among multiple factors considered in a transaction risk analysis. An absence of the product in the activity can be used as a neutral or negative factor among multiple factors considered in a risk analysis of the transaction.
