Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for predicting a status of a transaction are described. Feature data related to one or more transactions is collected and a subset of features is selected for use in predicting the status of the transaction. A model is trained using the collected feature data that corresponds to the selected features, and the model is applied to feature data of a selected transaction to generate a probability of the selected transaction attaining one or more defined statuses. Mitigating or preventive actions are performed based on the generated probability.

Abstract: A system and method for orchestration of customization for a user experience is disclosed. The system in an example embodiment includes automatically producing user experience customization selections for generating a webpage based on context information and a collection of user activity feedback from a community of users who previously interacted with the webpage. The user experience customization selections include a plurality of modules for inclusion in the web page, where each of the modules represent a user-interface element. One or more of the plurality of modules having input and output properties defining at least one application programming interface (API). The system in a further embodiment includes discovering dependencies between the one or more of the plurality of modules by extracting dependency information from the at least one API associated with the one or more of the plurality of modules.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for promoting item listings that satisfy a query based on the item listings being assigned to certain categories that have, based on historical click data, exhibited high demand characteristics for the query. Consistent with some embodiments, a certain number of leaf-level categories are identified based on demand data for those categories, and the item listings assigned to those categories are promoted through a weighting factor derived in part based on the click probability score associated with the category. In some embodiments, certain sub-categories may be selected when the demand associated with the child categories of the sub-category is well balanced.

Abstract: A system and method for context and community based customization for a user experience is disclosed. The apparatus in an example embodiment includes a user experience customizer to gather context information, automatically produce user experience customization selections based on the context information, collect user activity feedback from a community of users, and use the user activity feedback to adjust the user experience customizer to automatically produce user experience customization selections likely favored by a user based on a correlation of the user activity feedback with the context information.

Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and associated method to enhance a user experience in an online environment is provided. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a request over a network from a user where the request includes keywords to be used in a search for one or more items; the results from the search being displayed in a webpage. A determination is made whether to track metrics related to user activities associated with the results from the search. Based on a determination that the user activities are to be tracked, determining factors based on the tracked metrics related to the user activities, calculating a predictive model using one or more processors based on the determined factors, and displaying an enhanced webpage where components in the enhanced webpage are based on the predictive model.
