Finding The Most Desirable Car Using K-Nearest Neighbor From E-Commerce Websites

Abstract

The increasing number of cars that have been released to the market makes it more difficult for buyer to choose the choice of car that fits with their desired criteria such as transmission, number of kilometers, fuel type, and the year the car was made. The method that is suitable in determining the criteria desired by the community is the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). This method is used to find the lowest distance from each data in a car with the criteria desired by the buyer. Euclidean, Manhattan, and Minkowski distance are used for measuring the distance. For supporting the selection of cars, we need an automatic data col-lection method by using web crawling in which the system can retrieve car data from several ecommerce websites. With the construction of the car search system, the system can help the buyer in choosing a car and Euclidean distance has the best accuracy of 94.40%.
