Abstract:
In this paper an in depth study is made on identifying primary factors on which the Indian online shoppers are influenced. Based on the dominating factors extracted from the internet shoppers’ replies they are clustered. A novel and efficient single layer nonlinear ANN model with PSO based weight adaptation (SNANNP) is developed by taking the demographic input of the shopper and clustering results as the desired class. Close observation of experimental results indicate that the proposed method exhibits superior classification performance compared to that obtained by discriminant analysis and conventional single layer ANN (SNANN) model.
