1. A system for dispensing samples, the system comprising:

  • a machine main body having a dispenser;

    a storage apparatus configured in the machine main body for storing a plurality of samples;

    a display device disposed in the machine main body for displaying information;

    an input device disposed in the machine main body for allowing a user to input identifying information;

    a controller configured in the machine main body for selectively transferring at least one of the samples from the storage apparatus to the dispenser;

    a communication device configured in the machine main body;

    a user database for recording user identification data, intention data associated with the user identification data and user attribute data corresponding to the user identification data; and

    a processor apparatus communicating with the communication device of the machine main body and comprising an attribute database, a relational database, a feedback module and a recommendation module, wherein the attribute database records a plurality of sample attribute data, the relational database correlates the sample attribute data with the user identification data and the user attribute data, the feedback module determines whether it is required to input feedback information according to the identifying information and turning on the recommendation module when it isn'"'"'t required, and the recommendation module determines that at least one of the samples is an authorized sample according to the identifying information, wherein the recommendation module commands the display device to display an intention questionnaire based on the identifying information, the input device allows the user to input intention information responsive to the intention questionnaire, and then the recommendation module generates a sample recommendation list based on the intention information with the samples and determines at least one of the samples is the authorized sample according to the sample recommendation list, and the controller further for transferring the authorized sample that is determined by the recommendation module from the storage apparatus to the dispenser,wherein the processor apparatus further comprising;

    an identification module for determining whether the identifying information conforms to one of the user identification data of the user database when the identifying information has acquired by the input device and turning on the feedback module when the identifying information conforms to said one of the user identification data, and wherein the recommendation module comprises;

    a data-clustering module for grouping the user identification data into a plurality of groups according to a correlation between the user identification data and the user attribute data;

    a fuzzy module for calculating a membership degree between the identifying information and the groups by utilizing the fuzzy theory, so as to generate weight values corresponding to the groups respectively;

    a data analysis module for grouping each of the groups into a plurality of subgroups according to the intention information, determining that the intention information associated with the identifying information belongs to which one of the subgroups, acquiring one or more of the information of authorized sample corresponding to each of the intention data in said one of the subgroups according to said one of the subgroups and performing statistical analysis accordingly so as to generate a plurality of recommendation values of the samples, wherein the recommendation module generates the sample recommendation list according to the identifying information, the weight values corresponding to each of the groups respectively, and the recommendation values of the samples, determines the authorized sample according to the sample recommendation list, and records the intention data corresponding to the user identification data and the information of authorized sample into the user database and relational database when the controller transfers the authorized sample from the storage apparatus to the dispenser.
