Segmentation and Clustering Analysis 细分与聚类分析 (MAV552)

MAV552 Segmentation and Clustering Analysis offers an in-depth exploration of data-driven techniques essential for uncovering patterns and structures within complex datasets. Students will engage with advanced methodologies such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), K-Means, hierarchical clustering, and DBSCAN, all while mastering their practical implementation using Python. The course emphasizes the application of these techniques to real-world business problems, enabling students to perform dimensionality reduction, identify meaningful segments, and derive actionable insights. Through hands-on practice with Python libraries like scikit-learn, students will learn to handle, transform, and visualize high-dimensional data for effective communication of clustering results. By the end of this course, students will be equipped to apply clustering and segmentation strategies in diverse fields to support data-driven decision-making.
