The Complexity Turn
Author: Arch G. Woodside
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319470280
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This book takes the reader beyond net effects and main and interaction effects thinking and methods. Complexity theory includes the tenet that recipes are more important than ingredients—any one antecedent (X) condition is insufficient for a consistent outcome (Y) (e.g., success or failure) even though the presence of certain antecedents may be necessary. A second tenet: modeling contrarian cases is useful because a high or low score for any given antecedent condition (X) associates with a high Y, low Y, and is irrelevant for high/low Y in some recipes in the same data set. Third tenet: equifinality happens—several recipes indicate high/low outcomes.

Handbook of Research on Advanced Hybrid Intelligent Techniques and Applications
Author: Bhattacharyya, Siddhartha
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1466694750
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 678
Book Description
Conventional computational methods, and even the latest soft computing paradigms, often fall short in their ability to offer solutions to many real-world problems due to uncertainty, imprecision, and circumstantial data. Hybrid intelligent computing is a paradigm that addresses these issues to a considerable extent. The Handbook of Research on Advanced Hybrid Intelligent Techniques and Applications highlights the latest research on various issues relating to the hybridization of artificial intelligence, practical applications, and best methods for implementation. Focusing on key interdisciplinary computational intelligence research dealing with soft computing techniques, pattern mining, data analysis, and computer vision, this book is relevant to the research needs of academics, IT specialists, and graduate-level students.

Inductive Fuzzy Classification in Marketing Analytics
Author: Michael Kaufmann
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319058614
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
To enhance marketing analytics, approximate and inductive reasoning can be applied to handle uncertainty in individual marketing models. This book demonstrates the use of fuzzy logic for classification and segmentation in marketing campaigns. Based on practical experience as a data analyst and on theoretical studies as a researcher, the author explains fuzzy classification, inductive logic and the concept of likelihood and introduces a blend of Bayesian and Fuzzy Set approaches, allowing reasonings on fuzzy sets that are derived by inductive logic. By application of this theory, the book guides the reader towards a gradual segmentation of customers which can enhance return on targeted marketing campaigns. The algorithms presented can be used for visualization, selection and prediction. The book shows how fuzzy logic can complement customer analytics by introducing fuzzy target groups. This book is for researchers, analytics professionals, data miners and students interested in fuzzy classification for marketing analytics.
