| Abstract: | Abstract Analysis of customers' sensibilities and preferences is an important strategy in a market that is becoming increasingly more customer oriented. The authors propose the Textile Design Recommendation System (TDRS) as an effective tool for focusing on customers' needs in the textile industry. The authors have developed a user interface tool that can suggest textile designs according to the users' needs. Collaborative filtering was adopted to search a textile design, and the performance of TDRS was tested according to three algorithms. This system may allow textile merchandisers to meet a consumer's needs more exactly and easily. |
