Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a hypothetical scenario where traditional clustering methods would fail due to an unknown number of clusters. Illustrate how the Dirichlet Process would address this issue.

💡 Hint: Reflect on dynamic environments such as market entry with varying customer needs.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain the implications of using a Dirichlet Process in a dataset that has seasonal trends. How might clustering change with respect to time?

💡 Hint: Consider how consumer behavior varies seasonally.
