Consumer segmentation

We present here how to use BayesiaLab for the segmentation of customers described by a Usage and Attitude survey. We used here what we call the "hierarchical clustering" workflow. This workflow consists in:

  • Unsupervised learning to discover all the direct probabilistic relations that hold between the variables
  • Variable clustering based on the Kullback-Leibler divergences (non linear measure) corresponding to each arc discovered during unsupervised learning
  • Factor induction to create the latent variables corresponding to each identified cluster of variables
  • Clustering of the customers based on their descriptions with the induced Factors
  • Supervised learning to find the best characterization of the segmentation in terms of Manifest variables
