KiTeMiROOM: Fashion Coordinator with Web Data Corresponding to Atmosphere

KiTeMiROOM enables window-shopping for online items in the real world. Nowadays, huge number of items are being sold on the internet, and the ways to mix-match tops and bottoms can be an astronomical number. Therefore, we have developed this new way of fashion coordination suggestion system that can personalize the fashion items by the environmental information, such as the outfit that users are wearing, user attributes, user preference and so on. Based on the those environmental information, the system can narrow down the number of fashion items and also can provide natural coordination by randomly switching the fashion items.
