Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a use case where you have a dataset of customer purchases over a year. Design a non-parametric Bayesian model that could help identify changing purchasing patterns without losing flexibility.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the seasonal aspect and how clusters might evolve.

Question 2

Reflect on the implications of using a non-parametric approach in healthcare analytics, especially for patient treatment pathways. What risks could arise from its flexibility?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the balance between flexibility and the risk of overfitting.
