Abstract
Example embodiments described herein disclose systems and methods for near-identical multi-faceted entity identification within search results from an online marketplace. The online marketplace may be or include a group of one or more server machines configured to provide one or more online marketplace services, including the near-identical multi-faceted entity identification system. A user device may accordingly request and receive, from the online marketplace, a set of item listings based on submitted search criteria. The online marketplace may then access the set of item listings and identify one or more similar item listings among the set of item listings in order to demote a ranking of the similar item listings within the set.
