Market Basket Analysis

Market basket analysis with Apriori algorithm

The retailer wants to target customers with suggestions on itemset that a customer is most likely to purchase .I was given dataset contains data of a retailer; the transaction data provides data around all the transactions that have happened over a period of time. Retailer will use result to grove in his industry and provide for customer suggestions on itemset, we be able increase customer engagement and improve customer experience and identify customer behavior. I will solve this problem with use Association Rules type of unsupervised learning technique that checks for the dependency of one data item on another data item.

Introduction

Association Rule is most used when you are planning to build association in different objects in a set. It works when you are planning to find frequent patterns in a transaction database. It can tell you what items do customers frequently buy together and it allows retailer to identify relationships between the items.

An Example of Association Rules

Assume there are 100 customers, 10 of them bought Computer Mouth, 9 bought Mat for Mouse and 8 bought both of them. - bought Computer Mouth => bought Mat for Mouse - support = P(Mouth & Mat) = 8/100 = 0.08 - confidence = support/P(Mat for Mouse) = 0.08/0.09 = 0.89 - lift = confidence/P(Computer Mouth) = 0.89/0.10 = 8.9 This just simple example. In practice, a rule needs the support of several hundred transactions, before it can be considered statistically significant, and datasets often contain thousands or millions of transactions.

Strategy

• Data Import
• Data Understanding and Exploration
• Transformation of the data – so that is ready to be consumed by the association rules algorithm
• Running association rules
• Exploring the rules generated
• Filtering the generated rules
• Visualization of Rule

Libraries in R

First, we need to load required libraries. Shortly I describe all libraries.

• arules - Provides the infrastructure for representing, manipulating and analyzing transaction data and patterns (frequent itemsets and association rules).
• arulesViz - Extends package 'arules' with various visualization. techniques for association rules and item-sets. The package also includes several interactive visualizations for rule exploration.
• tidyverse - The tidyverse is an opinionated collection of R packages designed for data science.
• readxl - Read Excel Files in R.
• plyr - Tools for Splitting, Applying and Combining Data.
• ggplot2 - A system for 'declaratively' creating graphics, based on "The Grammar of Graphics". You provide the data, tell 'ggplot2' how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use, and it takes care of the details.
• knitr - Dynamic Report generation in R.
• magrittr- Provides a mechanism for chaining commands with a new forward-pipe operator, %>%. This operator will forward a value, or the result of an expression, into the next function call/expression. There is flexible support for the type of right-hand side expressions.
• dplyr - A fast, consistent tool for working with data frame like objects, both in memory and out of memory.
• tidyverse - This package is designed to make it easy to install and load multiple 'tidyverse' packages in a single step.

This dataset is related to direct marketing campaigns conducted by a Portuguese banking institution, with campaigns relying on phone calls. Often multiple contacts with the same client were necessary to determine whether they would subscribe ('yes') or not ('no') to a bank term deposit. The dataset includes four files:

1. bank-additional-full.csv: Contains all 41,188 examples with 20 input features, organized chronologically from May 2008 to November 2010, closely aligned with the data analyzed in [Moro et al., 2014].
2. bank-additional.csv: A subset of 4,119 examples (10% of the full data), randomly selected, with 20 input features.
3. bank-full.csv: The older version of the dataset, comprising all examples (41,188) with 17 input features, also organized chronologically.
4. bank.csv: A 10% random subset of the older version, containing 4,119 examples and 17 input features.

The smaller subsets are designed for testing computationally intensive machine learning algorithms (e.g., SVM). The primary classification objective is to predict whether a client will subscribe to a term deposit ('yes' or 'no'), based on the target variable y.

Dataset Information

The data is related with direct marketing campaigns of a Portuguese banking institution. The marketing campaigns were based on phone calls. Often, more than one contact to the same client was required, in order to access if the product (bank term deposit) would be ('yes') or not ('no') subscribed.

There are four datasets: 1) bank-additional-full.csv with all examples (41188) and 20 inputs, ordered by date (from May 2008 to November 2010), very close to the data analyzed in [Moro et al., 2014] 2) bank-additional.csv with 10% of the examples (4119), randomly selected from 1), and 20 inputs. 3) bank-full.csv with all examples and 17 inputs, ordered by date (older version of this dataset with less inputs). 4) bank.csv with 10% of the examples and 17 inputs, randomly selected from 3 (older version of this dataset with less inputs). The smallest datasets are provided to test more computationally demanding machine learning algorithms (e.g., SVM).

The classification goal is to predict if the client will subscribe (yes/no) a term deposit (variable y).
