Project 1:
Healthcare: Predictive analytics can be used in healthcare to mediate
hospital readmissions. In healthcare and other industries, predictors are
most useful when they can be transferred into action. But historical
and real-time data alone are worthless without intervention. More
importantly, to judge the ecacy and value of forecasting a trend and
ultimately changing behavior, both the predictor and the intervention
must be integrated back into the same system and workflow where the
trend originally occurred.

Project 2:
Insurance: Use of predictive analytics has increased greatly in
insurance businesses, especially for the biggest companies, according to
the 2013 Insurance Predictive Modeling Survey. While the survey showed
an increase in predictive modeling throughout the industry, all respon-
dents from companies that write over $1 billion in personal insurance
employ predictive modeling, compared to 69% of companies with less
than that amount of premium.

Project 3:
Retail: Analytics is used in optimizing product placements on shelves or
optimization of inventory to be kept in the warehouses using industry
examples. Through this project, participants learn the daily cycle of
product optimization from the shelves to the warehouse. This gives them
insights into regular occurrences in the retail sector

Project 4:
Internet: Internet analytics is the collection, modeling and analysis of
user data in large-scale online services such as social networking, e-com-
merce, search and advertisement. In this class, we explore a number of
key functions of such online services that have become ubiquitous over
the last couple of years. Specifically, we look at social and information
networks,recommender systems, clustering and community detection,
dimensionality reduction, stream computing and online ad auctions.

Project 5:
Education: An education department in the US needs to analyze the
factors that influence the admission of a student into a college. Analyze
the historical data and determine the key drivers.
Project 6:
E-commerce: A UK-based online retail store has captured the sales
data for different products for the period of one year (Nov 2016 to Dec
2017). The organization sells gifts primarily on the online platform. The
customers who make a purchase consume directly for themselves. There
are small businesses that buy in bulk and sell to other customers through
the retail outlet channel. Find significant customers for the business who
make high purchases of their favourite products.
