• Abstract: E-commerce is growing at an unprecedented rate and the fashion industry has recently witnessed a noticeable shift in customers' order behaviour towards stronger online shopping. However, fashion articles ordered online do not always find their way to a customer's wardrobe. In fact, a large share of them end up being returned. Finding clothes that fit online is very challenging and accounts for one of the main drivers of increased return rates in fashion e-commerce. Size and fit related returns severely impact 1. the customers experience and their dissatisfaction with online shopping, 2. the environment through an increased carbon footprint, and 3. the profitability of online fashion platforms. Due to poor fit, customers often end up returning articles that they like but do not fit them, which they have to re-order in a different size. To tackle this issue we introduce SizeFlags, a probabilistic Bayesian model based on weakly annotated large-scale data from customers. Leveraging the advantages of the Bayesian framework, we extend our model to successfully integrate rich priors from human experts feedback and computer vision intelligence. Through extensive experimentation, large-scale A/B testing and continuous evaluation of the model in production, we demonstrate the strong impact of the proposed approach in robustly reducing size-related returns in online fashion over 14 countries.

  We propose an improved model named Relation Enhanced Attention Recurrent (REAR) network. Compared to KERN, the REAR model leverages not only the relations among fashion elements but also those among user groups. To further improve the performance of long-range trend forecasting, the REAR method devises a sliding temporal attention mechanism.

  PreSizE is a novel deep learning framework which utilizes Transformers for accurate size prediction. We demonstrate that PreSizE is capable of achieving superior prediction performance compared to previous state-of-the-art baselines. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that size predictions made by PreSizE can be effectively integrated into an existing production recommender system.
