- Abstract
- Accurately categorizing home furnishing items into interior design style groups plays a crucial role in delivering personalized recommendations that align with customers' design style preferences. However, manually labeling items by experts is a costly and resource-intensive task. To address this challenge, deep learning methods are used to automate the manual labeling of IKEA home furnishing items. The first part of the analysis considers descriptions of the items and classifies them into interior design style groups existing within the company. Leveraging the information present in the descriptions shows the potential for predicting the style group of previously unlabeled and new items. The second part of the study introduces more... (More)

Leveraging the information present in the descriptions shows the potential for predicting the style group of previously unlabeled and new items. The second part of the study introduces more customer-friendly style groups, shifts the focus to the images of the items, and explores a multi-label classification approach. The experimental results reveal challenges posed by the limited size of the dataset and highlight the need for additional data collection and refinement of the models to improve their performance.
