Abstract: Vectorized product characterizations can be based upon information that includes various characterizations of the corresponding products. This information can comprise objective information and/or subjective content as desired. Such information can be sourced, for example, by third-party product testing services, user-based product characterization sources (such as on-line consumer review sources), and otherwise as desired. One or more rules can be employed to automatically resolve conflicts between such characterizations before using such characterizations to form the corresponding vectorized product characterizations.
