Abstract
This study aims to compare and contrast the Kansei modeling methods for building a luxuriousness model that people feel about appearance of mobile phones. For the evaluation based on Kansei engineering approaches, 15 participants were employed to evaluate 18 mobile phones using a questionnaire. The results of evaluation were analyzed to build luxuriousness models through quantification I method, neural network, and decision tree method, respectively. The performance of Kansei modeling methods was compared and contrasted in terms of accuracy and predictability. The result of comparison of modeling methods indicated that model accuracy and predictability was closely related to the number of variables and data size. It was also revealed that quantification I method was the best in terms of model accuracy while decision tree method was the best modeling method with small variance in terms of predictability. However, it was empirically found that quantification I method showed extremely unstable predictability with small number of data. Consequently, it is expected that the research findings of this study might be utilized as a guideline for selecting proper Kansei modeling method.
