A method of training a machine learning model to determine an item margin is provided. The method includes monitoring a first value for a first item having attributes and monitoring a first value for a second type of item having attributes where an attribute of the first attributes is the same as an attribute of the second attributes. The method also includes determining a first margin based on the first values. The first attributes, the second attributes, and the first margin are input as training data for the machine learning model where the machine learning model is trained with the training data. The monitoring operations for the first item and the second item are repeated to obtain a second value for the first and second items. Furthermore, the trained machine learning model is applied to the second values to determine a second margin.

A method and apparatus for a commerce platform coordinating a purchase of a product sold by a merchant system through a third party application are described. The method may include receiving a notification from the third party application requesting to purchase a product from within the third party application, wherein the notification comprises an identifier for the product and an identifier for the merchant system that sells the product. The method may also include a product checkout interface having an appearance consistent with an appearance of a user interface of the third party application, and transmitting the product checkout interface generated by the commerce platform to a user device executing the third party application causing the third party application to render the product checkout interface within at least a portion of the user interface of the third party application.

Various implementations described herein are able to leverage the interaction from one or more potential buyers relative to a digital image to automatically create a sales listing for items that appear to be of interest to the buyers. This reduces or eliminates all together the manual effort previously required of sellers in researching and collecting data on each item they wish to sell. Because of their technical nature, the innovative solutions described herein are also readily scalable which, in turn, greatly improves the seller's experience. Based on buyer interaction experiences, sales listings for each item for sale can be automatically created and listed.

Apparatus and methods for ticket exchange. In an exemplary method, ticket exchange information is received from a plurality of users offering tickets for exchange. Each of the plurality of users is a season ticket holder with a set of tickets permitting attendance to a plurality of events over a period of time. The ticket exchange information identifies at least an event and seating information for the event. The method also includes steps of presenting the tickets for exchange to the plurality of users, receiving a request from a requesting user from the plurality of users for tickets from the tickets for exchange; and transferring the requested tickets from an original owner of the tickets to the requesting user.

A first computing device for product ownership management is provided. The first computing device is communicatively coupled to a store management system of a retail store. The circuitry determines a first geo-location associated with the first computing device. The circuitry receives credit information, associated with a purchase of a first product by a first user of the first computing device, from the store management system. The credit information may include a second geo-location associated with purchase of the first product. The circuitry compares the first geo-location and the second geo-location and receives product information associated with the purchased first product, based on the comparison. The circuitry stores the received product information and further generates ownership information for the purchased first product via an ownership management software. The circuitry further controls a display screen to display the stored product information and the generated ownership information.

In described embodiments, a device and method for diagnosing brain and neurological issues is provided. The device measures the performance of Convergence, Divergence, and binocular tracking capabilities of a subject's eyes, which can be used to determine whether a subject has experienced a brain or other neurological event.

An online marketplace system generates an online marketplace for seller-financed transactions. The system includes a plurality of listings of transaction offerings that are available. The transaction offerings are listed by a plurality of users and are from a plurality of different categories of products and services. The transaction offerings include a plurality of transaction terms, including payment and seller-financing terms. A transaction engine facilitates the negotiation of transaction terms between users and the formation of agreement between users. Transaction coins are awarded during the successful performance of a transaction according to the agreed upon transaction terms. A reputation engine generates trust profiles and trust scores for users. The trust profiles and trust scores are used by parties to evaluate the trustworthiness of the other party. A user interface engine generates a user interface that includes listings from users and trust scores of those users.

A method for conducting a plurality of electronic service exchanges over a network and a tangible, non-transient computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon to carry out the method are disclosed. The exchanges are conducted between two or more service providers on a basis of service time and description, and do not involve any monetary transaction. The method includes receiving information about an offered and requested service to initiate service exchanges. A plurality of parameters associated with the offered and requested services and an instruction set for each exchange are then identified. When the identification results in a match between the offered service and the requested service of a first service provider on a first terminal coupled to the network and the requested service and the offered service of at least one additional service provider on at least one additional terminal coupled to the network, the service exchange is conducted.

Aspects of the present disclosure perform reverse real estate searches using interactive GUIs. In some embodiments, techniques are provided to dynamically identify potential buyers (or renters) and then output those results in an interactive GUI that permits the searcher (e.g., a seller or agent) to then filter the results or update their search criteria. Further, the GUI can provide the ability for the searcher to contact potential buyers, all while remaining anonymous. Thus, the embodiments herein expand the technical benefits of using GUIs to perform real estate searches initiated by buyers (who can remain anonymous) to sellers and other agents to identify potential buyers or renters.

A method of utilizing an artificial intelligence, AI, having language recognition software allowing the AI to have humanistic characteristics while interacting with an online shopper. The AI interacts with a multiplicity of online shoppers concurrently and in real time to determine the validity of the shopper's contact information and the shopper's level of interest in the product. The AI will again interact with the multiplicity of shoppers, concurrently and in real time, and interact with the shoppers and the appropriate salespersons to make connections between the online shoppers and the salespersons within minutes of the online shoppers engaging in an online conversation with the AI. If either the shopper or the salesperson in any single interaction is unavailable, then the AI will attempt to schedule a future connection between the shopper and a salesperson. The AI will continue to follow up between the online shopper and salespersons until a connection is made or the online shopper indicates they are no longer interested.
