SCORER*

You need to have activated the BAIA module: Customer Clustering as described in this success case

* the Use Cases configuration is provided as SCORER with a default weight of 500.

Variables

  • field_prefix: the prefix of the clustered field before the cluster id*
    (for the 1st Use Case which will appear in the SCORERS)

  • field_postfix: the postfix of the clustered field after the cluster id*
    (for the 1st Use Case which will appear in the SCORERS)

  • pmml: the pmml name (will be provided to you by Boxalino), must be set in both OTHERS Use Cases

*Typically, fields will be like “bq_order_count_cluster_id_[NB]_short_term” with NB the id of the cluster (everything before is the prefix, e.g.: bq_order_count_cluster_id_, everything after is the postfix, e.g.: _short_term). However, please ask for this information to Boxalino after you have completed your Customer Clustering activation project.

As for the PCS - Smart Bestsellers, you can define different cases than the Order Count and period than short-term.

How to configure it?

You can import the JSON below directly in the Admin (use the Import button on the top right), as in this screen-shot, you will need to select a field prefix and postfix in two separate parameters.

You need to ask Boxalino what values should be considered for the prefix and the postfix
