Abstract

We propose an algorithm design for a Recommender System based on a Kansei model in this paper, we called this algorithm as Kansei Recommender System (hereafter, we denoted as KRS algorithm). The purpose of KRS algorithm is to support designers to pre-know the appearance feeling (Kansei) of products from consumers. To complete this algorithm, we divide the algorithm design into three parts: (1) Extract Kansei factors and evaluation factors from consumers’ shopping items. (2) Determine a Kansei model for KRS algorithm. (3) Making decision by using KRS algorithm. We also give a concept map of paradigm by using KRS algorithm. In conclusion, we remain the future work to implement the KRS algorithm in real case studies with different fields of enterprises.
