• Abstract: Kansei Engineering (KE) is a user-centered design approach that emphasizes the emotional aspects of user experience. This paper explores the integration of KE in the case of a transportation company that focuses on connecting cargo owners with transportation providers. The methodology involves aligning the design process with the company's strategy, collecting and semantic scaling Kansei words, and evaluating website design through experimental and statistical analyses. Initially, we collaborated with the company to understand their strategic goals, using Use Case and Entity Relationship diagrams to learn about the website functionality. Subsequent steps involved collecting Kansei words that resonate with the company's vision. Website samples from comparable transportation companies were then evaluated by X subject in the survey. Participants were asked to arrange samples based on emotional feedback using a 5-point SD scale. We used Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to identify critical factors affecting users' perceptions of the design. Based on these results, we collaborated with designers to reformulate the website, ensuring the design features aligned with the Kansei principles. The outcome is a user-centric web design to enhance the site's user experience. This study shows that KE can be effective in creating more user-friendly web interfaces in the transportation industry.

  We propose FALCON, an efficient sample-based method to search for the optimal model design. FALCON features 1) a task-agnostic module, which performs message passing on the design graph via a Graph Neural Network (GNN), and 2) a task-specific module, which conducts label propagation of the known model performance information. We empirically show that FALCON can efficiently obtain the well-performing designs for each task using only 30 explored nodes.
