Hi,
I'm a R beginner. I have data of this form:
user_id, brand_id1, brand_id2, .....
for example:
1 , 45 , 32, 45, 23
2 , 34
4, 11, 43, 45
I'm looking for the right procedure to be able to cluster users. I am
especially interested to know which functions to use at each step.
I am currently able to load the data in a data frame, each row's name being
the user id.
#extract user brands, ie all collumn except the first
user_brands <- userclustering[,-1]
# extract user ids, ie the first column
user_ids <- userclustering[,1]
# set user ids as row name
row.names(user_brands) <- user_ids
But now I'm stuck replacing the brand ids by a count for each brand the
user ordered, all other brand counters being implicitely 0 for that user.
Then I'll need to be sure I can use it for clustering (normalising, correct
handling of brands absent from a user's list, etc).
thanks in advance for your help!
