碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊管理研究所 === 105 === In recent years, there are growing numbers of people going abroad for studying and traveling which indicates that the demand of currency exchanges is increasing. However, some problems are existed when we exchange currency through the banks. Consequently, the new financial service called P2P currency exchange emerged which aims to disrupt the foreign exchange (FX) markets. In our research, we focused on the model of Online to Offline (O2O) which simplify the process of using P2P currency exchange platform online. Also, it shows the stronger social relationship with others by face to face. We propose a recommendation mechanism for P2P currency exchange which is based on social networks and analyze users’ preference, similarity and location-based service. Then evaluating social trust by social influence computing. We look forward to providing proper candidates and encouraging sharing economy in finance sector which greatly decrease the cost of currency exchange.
