N2 - To rapidly meet various personalized customer requirements (PCRs) in the product conceptual design process, the requirement automatic analysis and design parameters (DPs) intelligent recommendation approach is regarded as a critical factor in the competition of enterprises’ design capabilities. Nevertheless, most existing DP recommendation methods cannot achieve ideal performance under the background of massive personalized data and high-accuracy demand of the results. To fill in this gap, this paper proposes a data-driven DP recommendation approach for PCRs, which assists designers in automatically getting a design scheme to users’ input requirements. Focusing on problems such as complexity concerns, namely requirement features elicitation, personalized requirements generic expression. et al., the proposed approach contains a completed requirements analysis process, the quantification expression of personalized requirements, and the accuracy DP prediction process. Hence, the proposed approach not only automates the conceptual design process for PCR but also guarantees the accuracy of the output DPs. Moreover, a practical case on the design of refrigerators is utilized, and satisfaction of the recommended results could be predicted to verify the efficacy of the proposed approach. It can be inferred that this work can effectively assist designers in a more efficient and accurate design process.
