Course Description

Cluster analysis is an important tool within the data science toolset. It is used to identify clusters that share similar characteristics. These similarities can be used to help you make better business decisions. It can also help you target different customers in marketing. This course will cover both hierarchical clustering and k-means clustering. These methods will teach you not only how to use them but also how to interpret their results. Three datasets will be used to develop this intuition: longitudinal occupational wage data for soccer players, wholesale customer spending data for wholesale customers, and soccer player positions.
