Algos vs Features

You will see a lot of #posts on #Datascience #alogrithms but very few posts on #features #data. 80% of core learning is #features and #data. Hope #features are also #shared more openly for benefit of the community and #learning from #experiements. 

Pay deep attention to features. For example, For an average shopper what all I can track about his purchase?

  • How many average views to buy a product
  • How many competitive products comparison
  • How many average price comparisons
  • How many discount comparisons
  • Time of purchase (Weekday / Weekend)
  • Festive Shopper
  • Bought together supplementary items
  • Weekend shopper
  • Late night shopper
  • Salary Day Shopper
  • Discount Shopper

Many times it is a tradeoff between 10000 feet view vs 1000 feet ground view. Balance both #perspective vs #bigpicture. Nth level personalization / real-time personalization across browsers/devices like we see how google recommends in the next browser session. #perspectives #datascience #persppectives #learningmoments
