Search system means that users set the selection criteria by actively setting the conditional options of ideal objects and indicating the importance of each demand, and then search the data in the website database to find out the most qualified candidates.
Based on the matching evaluation system adopted by the website, the recommendation system tests users' psychology, personality and values, and then recommends candidates with similar or complementary characteristics to users.
No matter which matching method, the goal is to meet the requirements of users and establish a harmonious, happy and long-term marriage relationship. For example, eHarmony, an American professional dating website, uses a recommendation system to screen out matching objects with similar economic strength, education level and education background for users.
