Description

E-commerce has become a big thing in Pakistan especially with Amazon allowing Pakistani sellers to be able to sell their products internationally on Amazon. An Amazon Virtual Assistant is a person who, based on the investor's investment, sources a product, ships it to Amazon warehouses, and sets it up on the front page of the Amazon by incorporating SEO-based techniques and keywords in the product listing pace. The FYP aims to use natural language generation using deep learning models to automate the process of writing titles, features, and product descriptions. We are using language models such as BERT and GPT2 to generate infilled text that incorporates product search-related keywords.
