Abstract

In some embodiments, a method can comprise receiving a search query and performing a search based at least in part on the search query. In many embodiments, the search can return a plurality of search results, the plurality of search results can comprise a plurality of attributes. In some embodiments, the method can further comprise selecting at least two of the plurality of search results and sorting an order of the at least two of the plurality of search results by a ranking of the plurality of attributes of the at least two of the plurality of search results, the ranking of the at least two of the plurality of attributes of the plurality of search results based at least in part on a context of the search query. In many embodiments, the method can comprise facilitating display of the at least two of the plurality of search results. Other embodiments of related methods and systems are also provided.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

one or more processors;
and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions configured to run on the one or more processors and perform:
receiving a search query;
performing a search based at least in part on the search query, the search returning a plurality of search results, the plurality of search results comprising a plurality of attributes and a plurality of attribute values;
determining an expected item price for items in the plurality of search results based on attributes and attribute values of the items, wherein the expected item price for first items of the items that include a particular attribute value is an average price of the first items, wherein the plurality of attributes comprise the attributes, and wherein the plurality of attribute values comprise the attribute values and the particular attribute value;
selecting at least two of the plurality of search results;
sorting an order of the at least two of the plurality of search results by a ranking of the plurality of attributes of the at least two of the plurality of search results, the ranking of the plurality of attributes of the at least two of the plurality of search results being based at least in part on a context of the search query and the expected item price for the items in the plurality of search results;
and
facilitating display of the at least two of the plurality of search results using the order of the at least two of the plurality of search results based on the ranking of the plurality of attributes of the at least two of the plurality of search results.

receiving a search query;
performing a search based at least in part on the search query, the search returning a plurality of search results, the plurality of search results comprising a plurality of attributes and a plurality of attribute values;
determining an expected item price for items in the plurality of search results based on attributes and attribute values of the items, wherein the expected item price for first items of the items that include a particular attribute value is an average price of the first items;
selecting a first one of the plurality of search results, wherein selecting the first one of the plurality of search results comprises navigating to an item page of the first one of the plurality of search results;
determining a set of the plurality of search results based at least in part on the first one of the plurality of search results and a context of the search query;
sorting an order of the set of the plurality of search results by a ranking of the plurality of attributes of the set of the plurality of search results, the ranking of the plurality of attributes of the set of the plurality of search results being based at least in part on the context of the search query and the expected item price for the items in the plurality of search results;
and
facilitating display of a comparison of the first one of the plurality of search results and the set of the plurality of search results on the item page of the first one of the plurality of search results using the order of at least two of the plurality of search results based on the ranking of the plurality of attributes of the at least two of the plurality of search results.
