1. A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
a memory bearing instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to;
identify demographic information about members of a target population;
based at least in part on the demographic information, identify a group of participants in the target population;
identify Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) in one or more clickstreams of the group of participants;
decompose and hash each URL in the one or more clickstreams;
calculate, based at least in part on the decomposed hashed URLs, a metric of cross-shopping behavior of the group of participants between different consumer goods; and
transmit the metric of cross-shopping behavior through a communication facility to a remote machine for use in a determination of where consumer goods should be presented in an online store.
