Derived methods to measure campaign performance accurately for each member even if a member can not be part of a target or control group at the same time. - This is important if you want to associate campaigns with member… Show more Created a customer segmentation algorithm that clusters members in seconds. - It is scalable without using complex hadoop clusters and more hardware. - Is targeted around important business metrics of your choice so clusters are more useful and less arbitrary. Derived methods to measure campaign performance accurately for each member even if a member can not be part of a target or control group at the same time. - This is important if you want to associate campaigns with member behaviour effectively. - The data mining process does not require expensive hardware or time. Advised and audited on a large variety of product features relating to statistics, data visualisation and communication. Contributed to product feature development and ideas. Show less
