Research on Customer Perceived Value Evaluation of New Chinese-Style Clothing Based on PSO-BP Neural Network

In the current era that consumers pursue personalized experience, in order to optimize the customer experience of new Chinese-style clothing products and improve the evaluation procedures of new Chinese-style clothing products, based on the theory of customer perceived value, this paper constructs the evaluation index and evaluation model of new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value. This study is divided into three stages: firstly, through literature research and interview, thirty-seven elements of the evaluation index of customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing are defined; secondly, through questionnaire survey and exploratory factor analysis, seven dimensions of the evaluation index of the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing were extracted, which were cultural and educational value, aesthetic value, creative value, green value, engineering value, social value, and quality value, respectively; thirdly, we propose a PSO-BP neural network to evaluate the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing, and we choose twenty-two and eight new Chinese-style clothing as training samples and test samples, respectively. The experimental results show that the PSO-BP neural network can accurately evaluate the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing, and its error is controlled by 2.5% compared with the traditional BP neural network. The research results show that enterprises can improve the quality of product design through the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation indicators and models, and then improve their sustainable competitive advantage, so as to achieve the sustainable development of the new Chinese-style clothing industry ultimately.


Introduction
With the rapid development of China's cultural and creative industries, under the in uence of policy guidance, nancial support, technology iteration, talent innovation, and other factors, cultural industries represented by new Chinese-style clothing, animation, etc. have gradually become the pillar industries of the national economy, and they play an important role in improving the country's cultural soft power [1]. As far as the new Chinese-style clothing (a design style that grasps the ideological connotation of Chinese style, re nes Chinese design elements, and innovates in combination with current materials and technologies) industry is concerned, enterprises continue to strengthen the cultural uniqueness, fashion, and innovation of new Chinese-style clothing products through design, giving product value soul and vitality, and then promoting the sustainable development of the new Chinese-style clothing industry [2]. But from the current market situation, the problem of "misalignment of supply and demand" of products is still a bottleneck that plagues the sustained and healthy development of the new Chinese-style clothing industry. erefore, from the perspective of consumers, accurately grasping the changing consumer needs and consumption concepts of customers is of great signi cance for the development of the new Chinese-style clothing industry [3].
Modern product design is a process of a series of activities that seek design solutions to consumer demand [4]. In this activity, a crucial link in the product system analysis and evaluation is an essential basis for product design decisions. e so-called evaluation generally refers to the behavior of determining the attribute of an object according to a clear goal and turning it into the subjective utility (the degree of satisfying the requirements of the subject), that is, the process of defining the value. In this process, we should compare the evaluated object with a particular object to determine the value of the object [5]. However, looking at the new Chinese-style clothing industry, it is found that there is no unified product evaluation index and method for China. Most of the enterprises determine the final design of products based on the subjective empirical assessment of the products from the designer's perspective, and the evaluation process often has a certain degree of one-sidedness and uncertainty. erefore, when faced with the market reality that the personalized demand is prominent and the competition is becoming more and more fierce, in order to achieve the sustainable development of new Chinese-style clothing enterprises and industries, it has become an urgent problem for relevant enterprises and academia to build new Chinese-style clothing product value evaluation indicators guided by customer expectations, and to find scientific and reasonable product value evaluation methods, improve the design quality of new Chinese-style clothing products, and alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand.
Given this, this paper firstly introduces the customer perceived value theory. It combines the characteristics of the new Chinese-style clothing products with in-depth interviews and questionnaires with relevant consumers to build a system of measuring indicators of customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing products. e customer perceived value theory has received much attention since its inception and is often used to explain customers' subjective preferences and consumption behavior in specific situations. Based on this, this paper further incorporates the BP neural network method for evaluating natural case products. As an interactive evaluation method, the BP neural network can avoid the imprecision of artificially determined evaluation index weights and make the results more realistic. However, the traditional BP neural network also suffers from poor fault tolerance, the algorithm tends to fall into local minima, slow convergence, and instability in learning. To solve the above problems, this paper constructs a BP neural network evaluation model based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm. It uses the particle swarm optimization algorithm to obtain the optimal weights and thresholds for each layer of the BP neural network to further evaluate the consumer perceived value of the new Chinese-style clothing. Combined with the customer perceived value measurement index together, it will provide a more comprehensive, objective, and accurate reflection of the level of customer perceived value of the new Chinese-style clothing products, which will support the optimization of product design and the sustainable development of the company.

Sustainable Competitive Advantage and Customer Perceived Value.
As an important part of the sustainable development strategy of enterprises, the sustainable competitiveness of enterprises is not only a strong support for the development of enterprises, but also the only way for the sustainable development of enterprises. erefore, sustainable competitive advantage has always been the topic of concern of enterprise strategy theory [6,7]. Porter [8] first mentioned sustainable competitive advantage when discussing the company's long-term competitive advantage to obtain low cost or differentiation, and pointed out that the sustainable competitive advantage of an enterprise comes from the value it creates for customers that exceeds its cost, which ultimately depends on the value it can create for customers. Barney [9] proposed that one of the necessary conditions for obtaining the unique strategic resources of sustainable competitive advantage is that the resources are valuable; that is, they can enable enterprises to increase customer value and improve their business performance. Woodruff [10] also clearly pointed out that customer perceived value is the source of competitive advantage. Although there are great differences in the theoretical assumptions about sustainable competitive advantage and the various theoretical schools of its origin, there is a consistent understanding of the premise of obtaining sustainable competitive advantage: the degree of customer recognition of the value of enterprise products or services, and the customer perceived value determines the sustainable competitive advantage of enterprises. e recognition and research of value from the perspective of customers began in the 1990s. For the dimensional measurement of customer cognitive value, it has also changed from the initial single dimensional measurement to multidimensional measurement. In the early days of the theory, Zeithaml [11] referred to perceived value as the subjective value that the user has in mind after measuring the gain or loss. Simultaneously, Monroe [12] defined perceived value as the perceived quality or benefit that the customer gets from the product, as opposed to the sacrifice made by the price paid, etc. e above definitions of value in trade-offs between the "get" and "give" items are seen in marketing applications due to trade-offs between quality and price and are one-dimensional value judgments. In subsequent theoretical studies, Bolton and Drew [13] argued that viewing value as a trade-off between quality and price was too simplistic. Sheth et al. [14] argued that measuring perceived value as a single construct would lack validity and therefore proposed five dimensions of customer perceived value: functional value, social value, emotional value, epistemic value, and conditional value.
With the shift in the consumer market in recent years, many clothing companies have shifted from the traditional external competitors or internal resource conditions to the customer, which is fundamental to business survival and development. Under this background, the theory of customer perceived value is widely used in the research field of clothing product design. For example, Yan et al. [15], Yu et al. [16], and Li et al. [17], based on the theory of customer perceived value and combined with the characteristics of Internet distribution, built a measurement model of customer perceived value of online clothing customization; Chen et al. [18] took the value perception of children's clothing safety as the research object and developed a set of children's clothing safety perception measurement scale including 3 dimensions and 27 measurement items; Chi [19] used a multidimensional consumer perceived value model to explore the characteristics of consumer expected value of environment-friendly clothing, including social value, emotional value, quality value, and price value; Zhou et al. [20] took men's suits as the product object and discussed the design optimization scheme of men's suits by establishing a model between users' perceived image, suit design features, and user preferences. rough the above literature collection and analysis, the customer perceived value theory has been applied to different clothing situations, including clothing customization, green clothing products, and men's clothing. However, there is still a lack of research on new Chinesestyle clothing products. e constituent elements of customer perceived value differ for different clothing products. In particular, the new Chinese-style clothing products have distinctive characteristics such as spiritual and cultural categories, aesthetic forms, and cultural symbols, which are different from the general clothing products. erefore, it is of practical significance to study the connotation of customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing.
Based on the above analysis, as a subjective feeling in the customer's heart, the customer's definition of perceived value is subjective, complex, and multidimensional. erefore, this paper will refer to the functional value, social value, emotional value, epistemic value, and conditional value proposed by Sheth et al. [14] as the basis of the new Chinese-style clothing customer perception value evaluation study.

BP Neural Network and Particle Swarm Optimization.
BP neural network (back-propagation neural network), also known as error back-propagation neural network, is one of the most representative and commonly used artificial neural networks, especially in nonlinear problem-solving. e structure of the BP neural network is divided into input layer, hidden layer, and output layer. Its structure is shown in Figure 1. e process of the BP neural network can be divided into two stages: forward propagation and backward propagation. In forward propagation, the input signal is processed from the input layer through the hidden layer and then passed to the output layer, with the nodes in the previous layer only affecting the nodes in the next layer. Suppose the output layer does not get the desired output. In that case, it is transferred to the error back-propagation process by adjusting the weights and thresholds of the prediction errors to achieve a BP neural network prediction output with a good fit [21]. In Figure 1, x represents the input and y represents the output. f1 is the activation function from the input layer to the hidden layer, and f2 is the activation function from the hidden layer to the output layer. w ij and w jk represent the weights of the neural network.
From the above analysis, it can be seen that customer perceived value has the characteristics of subjectivity and complexity, and its actual evaluation belongs to a typical nonlinear problem. If traditional product evaluation methods such as AHP and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation are used, it is easy to cause distortion and bias of evaluation results by setting the premise for the operation of the linear relationship between evaluation indexes. erefore, it provides a certain theoretical basis for this paper to apply the BP neural network to evaluate the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing. However, before starting training, the BP neural network randomly initializes the weights and thresholds of each layer to the value between [0, 1]. is kind of random initialization without optimization often slows the convergence speed of the BP neural network and easily makes the result nonoptimal [22]. As a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm can map the weights and thresholds in the BP neural network to particles in the PSO algorithm, and update the speed and position of particles through iteration, so that individuals can find the optimal solution in the solution space [23]. e specific principle of PSO algorithm has been described in detail in Ref. [24], so it will not be repeated here. erefore, this paper introduces the PSO algorithm to optimize the initial value and threshold, so as to significantly improve the training and modeling speed, stability, and solution accuracy of the BP neural network.

Construction and Validation of the Evaluation Index of Customer Perceived Value in the New Chinese-Style Clothing
In the analysis of this section, this paper aims at constructing the evaluation index of new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value, and verifying the reliability and validity of the evaluation index. e specific research steps are divided into three stages: the first stage is to collect data by means of literature analysis and consumer questionnaire interview, and then sort out and code the interview contents through the research team to define the evaluation element factors; in the second stage, a large-scale questionnaire survey was conducted based on different gender, age, and educational background. Using the exploratory factor analysis method, the main aspects of the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation index are extracted, and based on this, the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation index scale is developed; in the third stage, reliability and validity analysis is used to verify the stability

Exploring the Element Factors for Evaluating the Customer Perceived Value of New Chinese-Style Clothing.
To determine the element factors that can be used to establish the evaluation index of new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value, this paper uses literature analysis and interview method sequentially and gives the interview results to the research group for coding and screening to determine the element factors.
First of all, this paper collects and refers to the research results of Yen et al. [25]'s cultural fashion design measurement index, Liu et al. [3]'s new Chinese-style clothing purchase intention scale based on the product quality theory, Kim et al. [26]'s clothing design evaluation standard scale based on consumer perspective, Yu et al. [16]'s men's shirt custom customer perceived value evaluation scale, Chi et al. [19]'s environment-friendly clothing consumer perceived value scale, and Ahn et al. [27]'s 6-dimensional clothing product quality measurement scale oriented to customer demand. According to the above research results, an interview questionnaire was designed. e interview questionnaire is combined with the context of new Chinese-style clothing products and focuses on referring to various cases listed in the collected literature.
Secondly, this paper uses the interview method to investigate the current situation. To obtain more practical consumption demand and value preference for new Chinesestyle clothing products, the author obtained a group of interviewees through a random survey, online forum invitation, and snowball recommendation. After thoroughly considering factors such as age, gender, occupation, education level, and user experience with new Chinese-style clothing products, the author finally selected 41 interviewees from different situations. e selected subjects are between 20 and 59 years old, covering the old, middle-aged, and young generations; the number of men and women in gender tends to be half (22 women and 19 men) to reduce the impact of gender factors. ey have more than 3 years of experience in using new Chinese-style clothing products, and the longest is as long as 10 years. eir occupations include college students and those who have participated in the work. e questionnaire's content is divided into three parts, with four questions in each part, making 12 questions. e first part is an interview with the basic information content of the respondent, in which the respondent explains the content of the case, the reason for purchase, and the occasion of wearing. e second part is an in-depth interview with the respondent. e respondents are encouraged to deepen further their thinking regarding the five dimensions of consumer perceived value: functional value, emotional value, social value, epistemic value, and conditional value. In the third part, in order to obtain valid interview results, we use some consumption cases (choice between well-known and ordinary brand products, different preferences between green and ordinary products, etc.) to stimulate the respondents to reflect on whether they have additional feelings beyond the previous interview. Given the impact of the current epidemic, this paper uses a combination of online and offline interview formats.
In the sorting and analysis of qualitative data, the primary focus is on coding. Coding is a systematic method of extracting data. In the process, data are analyzed and combined according to themes, concepts, or categories. e main procedures include three steps: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding [28]. After the interview and data collection, this paper commissioned a research group composed of experts and academics (a total of five people, including two professors and three associate professors) to conduct open coding first; that is, the research group extracted important information according to the interview content and integrated the obtained information into a unified category. Secondly, based on the understanding of the research topic, the research group linked all categories according to their internal organic associations (i.e., axes), found out the spindle code and named it, and finally obtained the element factors that may affect the evaluation of the perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing. Since the coding in this paper is mainly for inductive results, it is not within the scope of discussion to pay attention to the selective coding of text storylines, so this part is omitted [29]. In the end, the analysis yielded 37 factors such as Convey cultural meaning, Show the charm of regional culture, and Traditional natural fabrics (as shown in Table 1).

Extracting the Dimension of Customer Perceived Value Evaluation Indicators for New Chinese-Style Clothing.
After the first stage of the paper, 37 customer perceived value evaluation factors were coded and calculated. In the second stage, the structures and links between the 37 evaluation factors were identified through exploratory factor analysis. e constructs of the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation indicators were extracted.
Firstly, the 37 element factors from the pretest questionnaire were re-ranked randomly, and each element factor was converted into an item in the questionnaire. Secondly, participants were asked to select the level of agreement with the purchase of the product from a 7-step Liker scale ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree" on a scale of 1 to 7. e positive sentiments for each item increased as the scores increased. e positive sentiment for each item gradually increases as the score increases, so that the scores can be added up for subsequent analysis. Finally, through exploratory factor analysis, the element factors were analyzed, deleted, or modified to find common factors to be named to extract a suitable index profile for evaluating the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing.
In this paper, the data were collected mainly through online questionnaires, and 253 valid questionnaires were obtained, meeting the sample size requirement suggested by scholars [30]. Among the 253 questionnaires, 132 were completed by women and 121 by men; in terms of age distribution, 27 respondents were aged between 18 and 25 years, 90 were aged between 25 and 32 years, 75 were aged between 33 and 39 years, 40 were aged between 39 and 46 years, and 21 were aged 46 years or above; in terms of education distribution, 32 were with high school education or below, 53 with secondary school or college education, 113 with bachelor's degree, and 55 with postgraduate education.
In statistical analysis, data conforming to normal distribution is the basic assumption and premise of many continuous data comparison and analysis, among which skewness and kurtosis are important normality test indicators [31]. After the collection and collation of the questionnaire, first of all, through descriptive statistical analysis, we can find that the skewness values of 37 element factors are between −0.919 (Product recyclability) and −0.030 (An overall sense of refinement), and the kurtosis values are between −0.543 (An overall sense of refinement) and 0.591 (Convey cultural meaning). e absolute values of skewness and kurtosis meet the verification standards proposed by Kline [32] that the absolute value of skewness is within 2 and the absolute value of kurtosis is within 7. It indicates that the data are normally distributed, which is suitable for exploratory factor analysis and reliability and validity analysis. en, in exploratory factor analysis, through the first factor analysis, it was found that the five variable factor loads of Have a sense of glamour, Originality or creativity, Compact and beautiful accessories, Show personal social status, and An overall sense of refinement were not higher than 0.50, so they were eliminated. en, the data were subjected to a second factor analysis. After the KMO and Bartlett tests, the KMO sampling fitness measure was 0.935 and the Bartlett sphericity test approximate chi-square value was 5456.231, with a significance level of 0.000, indicating that the data were valid and suitable for factor analysis [33,34]. After passing the check, principal component analysis in factor analysis was continued to extract common constructs, with eigenvalues greater than one as the principle for selecting the number of common factors, resulting in a total of seven major constructs that explained 72.539% of the cumulative variance. Immediately afterwards, the selected conformations were pivoted by the maximum variance pivoting method, resulting in a rotated component matrix (as shown in Table 2).
Finally, the reliability and validity analysis revealed that Cronbach's alpha values of all seven dimensions were higher than 0.7, the average variance extracted (AVE) values of each dimension were greater than 0.5, and the square root values of the average variance extracted were also greater than the correlations with other factors (as shown in Table 3), which verifies that the seven dimensions have good reliability at the same time [35], and it also indicates that the dimensions have good validity [36].
Dimension 1 is mainly composed of five element factors: Convey cultural meaning, Bring back fond memories of life, Show the charm of regional culture, Have an attractive story or moral, and Positive cultural enlightenment. e factor load is between 0.819 and 0.742, and the explained variance is 11.585%. is dimension reflects consumers' pursuit of the emotional cognitive value of new Chinese-style clothing products, but different from the aesthetic value of using product modeling elements as emotional transmission media, dimension 1 emphasizes the attraction of an internal cultural gene of new Chinese-style clothing products, which provides consumers with a unique product impression and cultural attribution through the emotional association of the brain. It also edifies and promotes the spiritual level of consumers, so this dimension is named as the cultural and educational value of the product. Dimension 2 is made up of five factors: Exquisite design details, Modern and stylish, Exquisite decoration, Good styling proportions, and Harmonious and beautiful color matching. e factor load ranges from 0.787 to 0.705, with an explained variance of 11.449%. is dimension also reflects consumers' pursuit of the emotional perception value of new Chinese-style clothing products, that is, the product shape is used as a medium to convey information through the product shape elements, allowing consumers to form a visual perception of beauty, which in turn gives them a sense of inner pleasure. As the main expression of the product's visual aesthetic features on the consumer's emotions, this dimension is named the aesthetic value of the product. Show the charm of regional culture 3 Positive cultural enlightenment significance 4 Long-lasting and durable performance 5 Comfortable and breathable to wear 6 Convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance 7 Easy to move after wearing 8 Excellent manufacturing technology 9 An overall sense of refinement 10 Exquisite structure 11 Highly textured crafts such as prints and embroideries 12 Compact and beautiful accessories 13 Have an attractive story or moral 14 Have practical functions 15 Bring back fond memories of life 16 Have a sense of glamour 17 Physiotherapy and healthcare fabrics 18 Green textiles 19 Traditional natural fabrics 20 Promote a sense of personal confidence 21 Become more popular 22 Enhance personal image 23 Show personal social status 24 Show professional image 25 Make people feel special 26 Originality or creativity 27 A unique way of dressing 28 Versatility 29 Partial creative design details 30 Variety of matching features 31 Good styling proportions 32 Modern and stylish 33 Harmonious and beautiful color matching 34 Exquisite decoration 35 Exquisite design details 36 Product recyclability 37 Natural dyed fabric Scientific Programming Dimension 3 is made up of five factors: Make people feel special, A unique way of dressing, Variety of matching features, Versatility, and Partial creative design details. e factor load ranges from 0.814 to 0.696, with an explained variance of 11.419%. is dimension reflects consumers' quest for knowledge of new Chinese-style clothing products, that is, to satisfy their curiosity, novelty, and desire for knowledge by enhancing the newness of product details in design, matching, function, and wearing style. e elements of the dimension focus on expressing the uniqueness and novelty of the product, hence the name of the dimension as the creative value of the product.
Dimension 4 is composed of five factors: Product recyclability, Physiotherapy and Health Care, Fabrics, Green textiles, Natural dyed fabric, and Traditional natural fabrics. e factor load ranges from 0.837 to 0.641, with an explained variance of 11.084%. is dimension has an interactive value characteristic, reflecting the contextual value of the product.
is dimension reflects the desire of consumers who are influenced by the concept of green to satisfy their pursuit of a green and healthy life through products, and is therefore named the green value of the product.
Dimension 5 is mainly composed of five highly relevant element factors, namely, Long-lasting and durable, Performance, Easy to move after wearing, Comfortable and breathable to wear, Have practical functions, and Convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance. e factor load ranges from 0.728 to 0.692, and the explained variance was 10.343%. is dimension reflects the consumers' pursuit of the functional cognitive value of new Chinese-style clothing products and is related to the basic engineering performance of the products. erefore, this dimension is named the engineering value of the products.
Dimension 6 is composed of the four elemental factors of Promote a sense of personal confidence, Enhance personal image, Become more popular, and Show professional image. e factor load ranges from 0.795 to 0.693, with an explained variance of 9.156%. is dimension reflects consumers' pursuit of the social perception value of new Chinese-style clothing products; that is, it emphasizes the positive role played by the products in consumers' interpersonal and social interactions, and is therefore named the social value of the products. Dimension 7 is mainly composed of three element factors: Exquisite structure, Highly textured crafts such as prints and embroideries, and Excellent manufacturing technology. e factor load is between 0.827 and 0.763, and the explained variance is 7.503%. is dimension also reflects the consumers' pursuit of the cognitive value of the new Chinese-style clothing product function. However, different from the basic engineering performance of the product, this dimension focuses on the integrity of the product and the functional details, which can enable consumers to produce high-quality images. It needs to be highlighted through detailed design and high-level technology. erefore, this dimension is named as the quality value of the product.
rough the above analysis, we have obtained seven dimensions containing cultural and educational value,

Customer Perceived Value Evaluation Model of New Chinese-Style Clothing Based on PSO-BP Neural Network
is paper uses the PSO algorithm to find the optimal initial weight and threshold in BP neural network, and obtains a better neural network model to evaluate the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing. e specific steps of the experiment are as follows: (1) Obtain sample data of customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing, and preprocess and normalize the data. e construction process of the model in this paper follows as shown in Figure 2.
is section designs a questionnaire based on the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation index constructed in Section 3 and collects the evaluation index data of new Chinese-style clothing products. A BP neural network based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm for the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation model was established. Twentytwo new Chinese-style clothing was selected as training samples and eight new Chinese-style clothing as testing samples, and MATLAB software was used to train and test the neural network examples.

Data Collection and Preprocessing.
e main targets of this questionnaire were undergraduates and postgraduates and their families. College students and their families are potential consumers of new Chinese-style clothing. A total of 50 respondents were selected for the survey.
In this paper, a selection of new Chinese-style clothing products that are currently on the market was selected as the tested products.
ere are two main processes for their selection: (1) Selection of new Chinese-style clothing brands: Regarding a combination of indicators such as brand awareness, brand style, the status of the brand's published online performance, and the opinions of experts in the field, the new Chinese-style clothing brands selected for this paper are as follows: ICY, INXX, Bosie Agender, HUSENJI, Hua Mu Shen, BYTEHARE, Nengmao Store, CLOT, LI-NING, ANTA, HLA, PEACEBIRD, SHIATZY CHEN, Mi Shan, and Houxu. (2) Selection of new Chinese-style clothing products: 1-3 products were selected from the official websites or shopping platforms of the above 15 brands according to their sales index and brand representativeness, and finally, 30 new Chinese-style clothing products were selected as experimental products for this paper.
After determining the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation indexes in Table 3, 30 new Chinese-style clothing products were selected. rough the online survey, 50 subjects were asked to rate the customer perceived value evaluation indexes and the overall design of 30 new Chinese-style clothes. e data of the new Chinesestyle clothing products No. 1-22 were used for the training of the neural network, and the new Chinese-style clothing products No. 23-30 were used for testing the neural network. e subjects were shown the front and back pictures and pattern designs of the 30 new Chinese-style clothing products during the survey. In addition to the presentation of the picture information of the garments, the design inspiration, fabric, and accessories were presented.
When comes to statistical data, chance errors, human errors, and sampling errors can lead to outliers. To avoid a minimal number of people with solid subjective emotions or recording errors during the research process, an outlier test needs to be conducted on the scores obtained for each evaluation index and the overall design score for each new Chinese-style clothing product. To prevent outliers in the scoring from influencing the final results, this paper uses Grubbs' test (two-tailed test) to eliminate outliers [37]. e statistic for Grubbs' test (equation (1)) is shown in the following: where x i is the score of a certain indicator of a new Chinesestyle clothing product, x is the mean score of the corresponding indicator of the corresponding clothing, and S is the corresponding standard deviation. After testing, 124 outliers, generally extreme data caused by some subjects' strong subjective emotions on some clothing's indicators, were removed. Appendix A lists the scores of some sample clothing evaluation indicators after removing outliers. e data of the input layer of the BP neural network model are the average of the scores of 50 subjects. 8 Scientific Programming e 32 customer perceived value evaluation indexes data and overall design scores of 30 new Chinese-style clothing are taken as the original data. In order to improve the convergence speed of the BP neural network and the consistency of the results, it is also necessary to normalize the original data. In this paper, the min-max standardization method is adopted, called 0-1 standardization. at is, the original data were linearly transformed. To make the results distributed between 0 and 1, the function is used to process the original data linearly. e transformation function (equation (2)) is as follows: where y * is the standardization result, y is the sample score, y max is the maximum score of the sample, and y min is the minimum score of the sample. After the above processing of the original sample data, the scores of the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived evaluation index are the input data of the neural network, and the scores of the overall design of the new Chinese-style clothing are the output data of the neural network. e raw data and normalized data of the overall design scores of samples 1-22 used for training are shown in Table 4, which is the output layer data of the neural network model.

e Selection of BP Neural Network Parameters. Feature selection is crucial to machine learning, selecting features from all features to introduce into the model that are helpful and reduce the consumption of computational resources. e main role of feature selection is to reduce the number of features to prevent dimensional disasters, reduce training time, enhance generalization, and reduce overfitting.
e random forest algorithm is chosen to filter features in this paper. e random forest algorithm is one of the most widely used supervised learning algorithms to solve regression and classification problems. e random forest algorithm provides two methods of feature selection: mean Scientific Programming decrease impurity and mean decrease accuracy. is paper chooses the mean decrease impurity method, which can easily measure the relative importance of each feature to prediction. e higher the feature importance value, the more important the feature is to the model. After screening 32 features, the top 15 features with high feature importance values were finally selected, which are Become more popular, Exquisite structure, Exquisite design details, Promote a sense of personal confidence, Partial creative design details, Make people feel special, Good styling proportions, Exquisite decoration, Enhance personal image, Excellent manufacturing technology, Highly textured crafts such as prints and embroideries, Physiotherapy and Health Care Fabrics, Variety of matching features, A unique way of dressing, and Have an attractive story or moral. erefore, the number of nodes in the input layer of the BP neural network is 15. e number of hidden layer nodes is determined by trialand-error method. When the number of hidden layer nodes is 9, the training error of the BP neural network is the smallest. e selection of the BP neural network parameters is shown in Table 5.

Particle Swam Optimization Algorithm.
e selection of relevant parameters in the PSO algorithm is shown in Table 6. Figure 3 shows the change in the fitness value of the particles, that is, the MSE of the BP neural network training. e fitness value gradually decreases with the increase in the number of iterations.

Experiments.
e established structure has 15 nodes in the input layer, 9 nodes in the hidden layer, and 1 node in the output layer of the three-layer BP neural network. e MATLAB model is shown in Figure 4.

Training Experiment of PSO-BP Neural Network.
e data of No. 1-22 new Chinese-style clothing are input into the PSO-BP neural network for training. e following "PSO-BP neural network model" will be referred to as "the model" for short. After 4 iterations, the termination conditions are met and the training is completed. As shown in Table 7, the actual value is the overall design score of No. 1-22 new Chinese-style clothing, and the predicted value is the output of the model after training with these 22 groups of data. e relative error is the relative error between the predicted value of the model and the actual value of 22 new Chinese-style clothing data. e relative error can reflect the where R is the actual value and R ′ is the predicted value of the model. e overall design score of No. 19 new Chinese-style clothing is 76.226. e predicted value trained by the model is 75.314, and the relative error is 1.196%, which is the largest error in 22 groups of new Chinese-style clothing data. e relative error of No. 13 new Chinese-style clothing is the smallest, 0.004%. e average relative error of 22 groups of new Chinese-style clothing data is 0.354%, and the prediction results are accurate, so it can be concluded that the model has good learning ability and reliability.

Prediction Experiment of PSO-BP Neural Network.
In order to test the prediction ability of the PSO-BP neural network model, No. 23-30 new Chinese-style clothing data were selected for testing. e following "PSO-BP neural network model" will be referred to as "the model" for short. Table 8, the actual value is the overall design score of 8 new Chinese-style clothing from No. 22 to No. 30, and the predicted value is the predicted score of the trained model for the overall design of these 8 new Chinese-style clothing. e overall design score of No. 30 new Chinesestyle clothing is 72.143, the predicted value trained by the model is 73.779, and the relative error is 2.268%, which is the largest relative error among the 8 groups of data. e average relative error of 8 groups of data is 1.157%, less than 5%, which indicates that the model is reliable and has good generalization ability. is shows that the model has certain reference significance for the evaluation of customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing and provides a relatively objective method for the evaluation of new Chinese-style clothing design.

Comparison between PSO-BP Neural Network Model and
Traditional BP Neural Network Model. To compare the prediction accuracy of the PSO-BP neural network model and the traditional BP neural network model, the data of No. 22-30 new Chinese-style clothing were input into these two models, and the output results are compared as shown in Table 9. e following "PSO-BP neural network model" will be referred to as "the model" for short. e overall design score of No. 24 new Chinese-style clothing was 85.351, and the predicted score of the model was 85.211 with a relative error of 0.164%; the predicted score of the traditional BP neural network was 82.538 with a relative error of 3.296%. From Table 9, it is easy to find that the traditional BP neural network error fluctuates wildly, and the maximum relative error reaches 11.815%. e traditional BP neural network has the defect that it is easy to fall into the local minimum. For example, the predicted result of the customer perceived

Conclusions
In the new Chinese-style clothing industry, sustainable development not only refers to the organic unity of industrial economic growth and ecological environmental protection, or the inheritance and development of traditional culture through products and modern fashion, but also includes the sustainable consumption of turning to the demand side and pursuing the harmony of supply and demand. In order to improve the evaluation level of the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing and help enterprises more accurately grasp the consumer demand of products, this paper uses interview method, questionnaire survey method, exploratory factor analysis method, BP neural network, and particle swarm optimization algorithm to build new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value measurement indicators and evaluation model, and obtains the following main conclusions.
Based on the results of open-ended questionnaire interviews, this paper summarizes 37 element factors of new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value measurement indicators through coding procedures. en, through exploratory factor analysis and reliability and validity analysis, the evaluation index dimensions of the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing are extracted.
e results show that after the dimensionality reduction of 37 element factors through factor analysis, seven dimensions can be summarized: engineering value, aesthetic value, green value, creative value, cultural and educational value, social value, and quality value.
is paper uses the ability of BP neural network to solve nonlinear problems and establishes a new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation model based on the BP neural network. However, the BP neural network falls into local optimization and its convergence speed is slow. A new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value evaluation model based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed. e experimental results show that the PSO-BP neural network has a very good learning and predictability in the evaluation of the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing. It can evaluate the customer perceived value of new Chinese-style clothing well and provide an objective evaluation model for future new Chinese-style clothing design ideas. e use of the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value measurement index allows designers to design products according to the characteristics of the target customer, avoiding the misalignment between design and demand, product homogenization, and other issues, so as to enhance the sustainable competitive advantage of enterprises. Similarly, new Chinese-style clothing enterprises can also use this measurement index to classify products, and the design plan or product can be found out in advance through the new Chinese-style clothing customer perceived value measurement index to find out its unique product personality (such as focusing on cultural and educational products, aesthetic products, green products, or creative products), which will be more conducive to market planners to carry out market classification and competitor analysis as a reference. In addition, consumers can also use this measurement index in their daily lives to improve the quality of their purchase decisions, etc. and ultimately achieve the sustainable development of the new Chinese-style clothing industry.
