Abstract:
A valid combination of products is constructed from a set of products identified by a retailing backend system. The valid combination satisfies a condition of an offer. A product in the combination of product is a physical product located in a physical store. A social sentiment towards the product in social media data of a shopper is evaluated, and a rating of the product is computed using the evaluation. A location of the product in the store is obtained from the retailing backend system. The location of the product is overlaid on a view of the store, where the view is from a perspective of a location of the shopper, the shopper being physically situated in the store.
