Cluster analysis in R and SAS
The training focuses on advanced cluster analysis techniques using R and SAS environments. The program covers the theory and practical application of various clustering methods and their implementation in both environments. Participants, through hands-on workshops, learn to select and apply appropriate segmentation techniques depending on the characteristics of the data and the purpose of the analysis. Classes are conducted in the form of intensive workshops using real data sets.
