Analyze this: 5 bizarre correlations

Big part of the data analytics scientists is to find data correlations. By establishing links between events you can be aware of their triggers in order to get access to better decision making.

Yes, correlations are the key concept in the data analytics but we know correlation doesn’t imply causation. Having this in mind, the Purdue University in Indianapolis held “Spurious Correlations” contest among students and scientists from all over the world. The entries were extremely bizarre and funny like the correlation between ministers` salaries and the price of vodka or the amount of ice-cream sold and deaths by drownings. The winner of that very contest discovered the correlation between the number of storks sighted and the population of Oldenburg Germany. Funny enough, Ron Malzer – the author of the winning entry somehow managed to explain his correlation with the highest rate of adults reading Immanuel Kant in Oldenburg.

Why data analytics is crucial for fashion & apparel manufacturers and retailers

Regardless of its size, any fashion or apparel manufacturer is confronted with challenges related to predicting the future.

Unlike the big brands that manage to create and impose trends, smaller players try to foresee what will be the forthcoming changes in consumer tastes. Trends might arise even from occasional events, take for instance Converse sneakers which became a big hit after rock bands like The Ramones wore them onstage on their gigs at the late 70s and early 80s.

Apparel manufacturers often can do nothing but to follow and adapt according to trends. Discussing fashion and apparel, such shifts affects everything – size, color, shape, fabric, price, etc. are a piece of the equation for success or fail.
