Clustering and Association Models with IBM SPSS Modeler - ILO

Description

IBM SPSS Education is pleased to offer you our courses in an exciting learning format, Instructor-led Online (ILO). Students are offered a similar experience to live classroom training, with the convenience of having it delivered directly to their desktop.

This course demonstrates how to segment or cluster data with all the clustering techniques available in IBM SPSS Modeler. The course also provides examples of creating association models to find rules describing the relationships among a set of items, and of creating sequence models to find rules describing the relationships over time among a set of items.

Participants

This intermediate course follows the Introduction to IBM SPSS Modeler and Data Mining course or the Advanced Data Preparation with IBM SPSS Modeler and is designed for anyone who wishes to become familiar with the full range of modeling techniques available in IBM SPSS Modeler to segment (cluster) data and to create models with association or sequence data. For people wishing to successfully build such models using IBM SPSS Modeler, this course is an essential part of the learning process.
