What you'll learn

  • Learn how Dataiku helped vacation retailer Voyage Privé improve its recommender systems

Description

Recommender systems offer personalized content based on past behavior, which hooks the customer and keeps them coming back. Larry Orimoloye explains how Dataiku helped Voyage Privé, one of the world’s leading ecommerce vacation retailers, drive customers toward better recommendations. The solution uses relevant images to augment existing data, such as product pages previously visited by users, to improve the performance of the recommender systems. The new system was able to create a better-personalized experience to users in terms of what to display, which also lead to 7% increase in value per member.
