Publication number: 20200183920Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to refine search information. The methods and systems are for receiving a request from a mobile device, the request including an indication of a swiping motion that is applied across a touch-sensitive screen on the mobile device, the touch sensitive screen displaying search results including a first plurality of data items. The methods and systems are for retrieving a first refinement and a first value from a database entry. The methods and systems are for filtering the search results to generate refined search results including a second plurality of data items that are filtered based on the first refinement and the first value. The methods and systems are for communicating a user interface, over the network, to the mobile device, the communicating being responsive to the receiving the request, the user interface including the second plurality of data items for display on the mobile device.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2020Publication date: June 11, 2020Applicant: eBay Inc.Inventors: Ashita Achuthan, Paden Barber, Jonathan David Chard, Patrick Foss, Jean-Charles Gabaix-Hialé, Krystal Rose Higgins, Margaret MacDonald, Mark Eppolito, Matthew Bret MacLaurin, Mica Merce, Tyler Yong Nugent, Ryan Reeves, Bradley Roberts, James Tenniswood, Ladd Van Tol

Patent number: 9672259Abstract: Methods and systems to refine search results were described. The system communicates a first user interface to a mobile device that includes search results that include data items. The system receives a first request from the mobile device that includes an indication of at least one swiping motion that is applied across a touch-sensitive screen on the mobile device. The mobile device is associated with a previously selected refinement and corresponding value. The system filters the search results. The refined search results include a second plurality of data items based on the previously selected refinement and the corresponding value. The system generates a second user interface that includes the refined search results. The system communicates the second user interface, over the network, to the mobile device. The second user interface includes the refined search results that include the second plurality of data items to display on the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2013Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: eBay Inc.Inventors: Ashita Achuthan, Paden Barber, Jonathan David Chard, Patrick Foss, Jean-Charles Gabaix-Hialé, Krystal Rose Higgins, Margaret MacDonald, Mark Eppolito, Matthew Bret MacLaurin, Mica Merce, Tyler Yong Nugent, Ryan Reeves, Bradley Roberts, James Tenniswood, Ladd Van Tol
