📆 Date: Thursday 23rd May 2024
⏰ Time: 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm BSTJoin us for an online webinar as part of our DSF MayDay festival this May! By David Hoyle, Lead Data Scientist at dunnhumby, who will be covering To buy or not to buy, that is the question: Predicting what shoppers will buy in grocery retail.
Join David as he dives into predicting how much a product is going to sell each week is a key task for any grocery retailer. That is the job of a demand model. A good demand model can be used to forecast future sales, diagnose issues with past sales performance, and optimize how a product is priced and promoted. But building a demand model that can do all those things is not straightforward.
In this talk, he will go through what a demand model is, what requirements and constraints we need to put on a demand model, what issues and challenges arise when building a demand model, and how we go about solving those challenges.
The talk will mostly be a high-level overview with some mathematical detail.
