Abstract

See full text

The technology includes an example method for determining matching items. In some implementations, the method may determine a first set and second set of attributes and attribute types associated with a first and second item, respectively, based on description data associated with the items. The method may determine an attribute-type indicator for a pairing of a first attribute of the first set with a second attribute of the second set based on attribute types of the attributes, compute an attribute value for the pairing based on a similarity between the first and second attribute, and compute a match score for a combination of the first and second items based on the attribute value and attribute-type indicator. The method may also, in response to receiving a data query identifying the first item, provide a graphical user interface including a graphical element representing the second item based on the match score.
