Abstract

An auction analysis system predicts auction results. The analysis system may determine item, seller, or auction characteristics from prior or pending auctions. The analysis system also obtains item characteristics of an item for which a result prediction is sought, either by a buyer or by a seller. A price predictor in the system accepts the auction and item characteristics and predicts an auction result based on the characteristics.
