Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a dataset that includes various wine properties and you suspect that there may be underlying segments (clusters) of wines that are significantly different. How would you implement a DPMM to analyze this dataset?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how you would iteratively improve your understanding of the dataset.

Question 2

Imagine you are tasked with informing a company about customer segments using survey data. What considerations should you make regarding the number of clusters when applying DPMMs?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how behavior might differ across different segments.
