Abstract
A user preference hierarchy is determined from user response to images. Images may be tagged using machine learning models trained to determine values for images. Products are clustered according to product vectors. Images of products within a cluster are clustered according to composition and groups of images are selected from image clusters for soliciting feedback regarding user preference for products of a cluster. Feedback is used to train a user preference model to estimate affinity for a product vector. A user may provide feedback regarding a price point and products are weighted according to a distribution about the price point. The distribution may be asymmetrical according to direction of movement of the price point. Filters may be dynamically defined and presented to a user based on popularity and frequency of occurrence of attribute-value pairs of search results and based on feedback regarding the search results.
