This document summarizes several techniques for customer analytics in the retail industry that are discussed in existing literature, including customer churn prediction, customer segmentation, and market basket analysis. It provides an overview of common algorithms used for each technique, such as classification algorithms for churn prediction, clustering algorithms for segmentation, and association rule mining for market basket analysis. It then reviews seven research papers that evaluate these techniques on retail transaction and customer data, comparing the performance of algorithms like K-means clustering, decision trees, and neural networks. The papers demonstrate how these analytical approaches can provide actionable insights for retailers to improve customer retention, target marketing, and optimize product assortments.
