Abstract
Product definition aims at transfer customer needs into product functions. This process plays an important role in the early stage of product development. To make best use of historical design cases, data mining techniques are applied to extract the hidden knowledge from the database. This paper constructed a four-stage framework of product definition based on data mining techniques. It can help sales engineers efficiently find suitable product family and similar design cases, as well as choosing appropriate product function attributes to make adjustment. Following the presented methodology, engineers can develop new product function with short time and low cost. It can make full use of existing designs and maintain high customer satisfaction.
