Abstract

In order to increase the sales share, mobile phone manufacturers must understand the needs of consumers. The traditional c-means analysis method is sensitive to distance, and the shortcomings of the traditional method can be overcome with the help of fuzzy control theory. In this paper, 200 college students are randomly selected to conduct a questionnaire survey on the six factors affecting the purchase of smart phones, and the data are analyzed by using the improved fuzzy c-means clustering. The results show that the function, appearance and brand of mobile phones have an impact on the purchase of mobile phones. The results are helpful for mobile phone manufacturers to understand users’ consumption psychology and improve product competitiveness.
