Data mining-based optimal assignment of apparel size for mass customization

In this study, we have explored and discussed the data mining-based solutions to apparel size assignment using approach principle, K-means clustering, and support vector machine, respectively. A case of mass customization for men's pants in China with 200 adult males were employed to validate a...
