DWM Lab 11 (Open Ended Lab)

The automobile manufacturer needs to identify competitors for a new vehicle prototype. They want to cluster existing vehicles based on similarities and determine which cluster most resembles the prototypes. This will help identify primary competitors. Students should build a clustering model using a provided vehicle dataset and Python code to group vehicles and determine the closest competitors for the new prototypes. Their work will be evaluated on data preparation, analysis, modeling, model selection/building, and evaluation.

Open Ended Lab – Data Warehousing and Mining

Objective: To test the data mining analytical skills of students to solve the problem by using the
knowledge they have gained in their previous labs
Time Required: 3 hrs
Programming Language: Python
Software Required: Anaconda
______________________________________________________________________________

Task:
The automobile manufacturer is seeking to identify the closest competitors to their newly
developed vehicle prototypes before launching the new model. To achieve this, they need to
group existing vehicles on the market based on similarities, determine which group is the most
similar to the prototypes, and use this information to identify the primary competitors for their
new model.
The objective is to utilize clustering techniques to identify clusters of vehicles that possess
unique characteristics. This analysis will provide an overview of the current market of vehicles
and aid manufacturers in deciding on the development of new models based on the identified
distinct clusters.
