Data Mining Problems in Retail

Highly Scalable

Most of this article represents an overview of the results published by retailers and researchers who built practical decision making and optimization systems combining abstract economic models with data mining methods. The design of the model heavily depends on the problem. This framework resembles the approach suggested in [JK98].
