Online Dating APP Simulation; by Xutian Liu

Online Dating Applications in the Market

Argument: Can social dating app control who you will fall in love with, or will the design of the app change the result who you end up with?

Types of Dating Apps:

1. Geolocation matching dating apps aggregate potential matches based on geographic proximity. (Tinder, Bumble)

2. Matching algorithm-based dating apps are powered by offline matching services or matching algorithms that base their choice on personal survey information. (eHarmony)

3. Niche dating apps target specific groups of people. (The League, The Grade)

The Poem:

Modern Love

Is it closing the gap of distance;

Or is it pulling away different people;

Maybe we are asking too much, aren’t we?

Extraction & Visualization:

(change the sequence of events)

1. Distance-based Geolocation matching

choose the closest to date

Simulation:

Dating the Distance

2. Similarity (match or not) Matching algorithm-based

choose the similar to date

Simulation:

Dating the Similarity

3. The score, the highest score will get the chance to judge other people directly.

choose the best to date

Simulation:

Dating the Second Best First Ver.

Dating the Second Best Second Ver.
