The DATA MINING CUP has published a real-world data mining task for this scenario. Given a retailer’s fixed product assortment, the participating teams are to determine which products customers buy on a cyclical basis. Students are then challenged to develop a model that predicts these cycles for all relevant products and customer groups.
DMC teams have a total of 11 weeks to submit their solution model. The deadline for submission is June 28. The online awards ceremony will take place on July 14.
Since 2000, the DMC has been inspiring students worldwide with new, complex tasks. Participating teams can use their theoretical knowledge to apply intelligent data analytics to real-world scenarios. For this year's contest, 53 teams from 38 educational institutions in 16 countries have registered to participate. The deadline for teams to register to participate in DMC 2022 is June 26: https://www.data-mining-cup.com/dmc-2022/
