  • Publication number: 20260149947
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to interface generation including interface elements representative of a co-located resource when a user device is located within a predetermined geofenced area and a corresponding user has historical interactions with the co-located resource. In an example, a request for an interface and location data are received from a user device. The location data corresponds to a location of the user device when the request for the interface was generated. In response to determining the location data is within a predetermined geofenced area, a resource use probability of a resource for the user device is generated using a resource affinity model based at least in part on historical usage of the resource. In response to determining the resource use probability is above a predetermined threshold, instructions are transmitted to the user device that modify the interface to include an interface element representative of a resource usage.

  • Publication number: 20260134275
    Abstract: Examples provide a system and method for automatically tagging items and forming item-level user cohorts using a generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) model. A GenAI model generates item-level persona labels for a subset of untagged items sampled from a category of items. An item-level persona reflects user behaviors and/or preferences associated with specific items and types of items. The labeled item data, including the persona identification (ID) label, is used to train a deep neural net (DNN) labeling model to label untagged items with persona IDs for item-level personas. Customized item recommendations for each tagged item is mapped to a user cohort and used to generate item recommendations customized at the item-level. The DNN labeling model is periodically tested, evaluated, and retrained using sample tagged item data from the GenAI model to reduce the DNN model error rate and improve accuracy of the DNN model persona predictions.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and using seasonal affinity scores is disclosed. A set of user-specific historical transaction data is obtained and a user-specific affinity score including at least one of a user-specific season affinity score or a user-specific seasonal theme affinity score is determined by determining one or more product affinity scores for a set of product taxonomies and combining the one or more product affinity scores with one or more product index scores to generate the user-specific affinity score. The product affinity scores are determined by a trained scoring calculation model configured to receive the set of user-specific historical transaction data. One or more interface elements are selected based on the user-specific affinity score and an interface is generated including the one or more interface elements.

  • Publication number: 20260079816
    Abstract: A system and method for analyzing the quality of data in a server or network component a log file. The system imports a quality log analyzer (QLA) plugin into an integrated developer environment (IDE). The developer application code is compiled within the IDE. The QLA plugin invokes a log analyzer suggestion module (LASM) during the developer application code runtime. During the application code runtime, the LASM, reads the developer application code to parse server log strings associated with the developer application code. The LASM analyzes the developer application code server log strings for similarities, and calculates the similarity between two or more application code server log strings to determine if they are identical, similar, or unrelated. The system uses these comparisons along with an optimized server log rules engine to determine which application code server log strings can be optimized to reduce use of the server log memory.

  • Patent number: 12482019
    Abstract: Systems and methods for post transaction seasonal item recommendations are disclosed. In some embodiments, a current seasonal time window associated with a seasonal event and some seasonal product types is determined. Based on historical transaction data of the seasonal product types, a first seasonal index score is computed for each item, and a second seasonal index score is computed for each product type including one or more items. A seasonal rank score is generated for each item based on the first seasonal index score and the second seasonal index score, such that the items in the historical transaction data are ranked based on their respective seasonal rank scores. Based on the ranked items and a transaction order from a user, a list of recommended items is generated and displayed to the user.

  • Patent number: 12475498
    Abstract: A system and method for recommending products based on characteristics of a customer's household. The system and method associates age dependent products with developmental stages on a universal developmental scale and determines a subset of age dependent products based on prior engagements by the customer's household. Using the development stages associated with the subset of age dependent products characteristics of the customer's household may determine specifically the number and ages of juveniles in the customer's household. Performing Gaussian mixture model or multivariate kernel density estimation on the developmental stages associated with the engagements of customer's household, the age(s) and number of juveniles respectively may be determined and recommendations of products and services to the customer or customer's household based upon these characteristics may be advantageously made.
