Abstract
Telecommunication package is a product produced by telecom operator to satisfy different consumer groups. Telecom operator should not only consider the users’ acceptability, but also enable to maximize profits. However, how to balance the relationship of both and designing a package are very important tasks and complicated problems. At present, design of telecom package is affected greatly by designer’s subjective experience which is blind. In this paper, a new idea of automatic discovery and recommendation for telecom package is proposed. This idea is combined user’s acceptance with operator’s profit. The package model and customer model are set up based on consumption of customers. Particle swarm optimization is used for discovering an inverse package. Meanwhile, the potential customers of the targets are selected by calculating proportion of package attribute usage. Experimental results show that the proposed method has favorable performance.
