# Project description

In Hong Kong, when it comes to buying special sneakers, customers prefer physical shops to online shops. It is because online shops vary in quality, customers have to take a large amount of time to do research so as to prevent from buying fake knockoffs or unreasonable markup. The risks decrease the customers' motivation for the online shops. Accordingly, the online special sneakers market in Hong Kong is less developed and it has huge potential of growth. KICKY was developed as an online special sneakers metasearch platform which allows customers to search and buy the sneakers at the best price through offers comparison. A partner grading system and use of AI can even guarantee the quality and suitability of the items listed on the platform.

LOGO⅃ is an image generator that produces new logos in a snap. The logo generator is built upon Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network (DCGAN). DCGAN is composed of two competing models, discriminator (D) and generator (G). The function of D is to distinguish if the input image is real or fake, while G has to generate image which is as real as human-designed logo so as to deceive D. With enough real life logos as training images, the GAN model is learning at a tremendous rate until it is able to generate decent logos consistently. Users can then surf through the sea of generated logos as an idea bank, or even directly choose a logo they like for further use.
