THE ORIGINAL STUDY / MARKETING MINOR

What can product data
tell us about a market?

A team study of Amazon retail information examined the relationships between price, product category, brand and sales using multivariate regression. Scatter plots and category comparisons were used to present the analysis.

TWO DISTINCT STAGES

01Original research

Product information, statistical modeling and visual analysis formed the course project. The archived description does not include the original dataset, coefficients or validation results.

02Later AI extension

A later proposal expands the questions to review sentiment, visual style classification and time-based trend forecasting. These are proposed extensions, not outcomes of the 2019 project.

03Questions for development

How could changes in customer reviews, product attributes and prices be studied over time? What additional evidence would be needed before forecasting trends or explaining sales changes?

LATER PROPOSAL / FROM DATA TO DECISIONS

01Collect & prepare

Proposed weekly retail collection, cleaning and normalization of products, prices, reviews and sales information.

02Read the signals

Review sentiment, visual style, price, brand and material attributes would become separate analysis inputs.

03Model & report

Explore sales models and time-based trends, then communicate findings through a dashboard and recurring reports. These remain proposed work.

PROJECT BOUNDARY

A study, followed by
a new proposal.

The early market study and the later AI plan remain separate in this archive. No prediction accuracy, business impact or running data pipeline is claimed.
