Task specification

Compared with other classical branches, the data situation inthe mail order industry is extraordinary good. Thus it's notsurprising that this is a domain of successful Data Miningapplications for many years. An important task for today'smail order companies is to tackle the problem of returns.The reason is that customers, encouraged by the customer-friendlycost-free return of purchases, increasingly send back merchandisethey have ordered. (In Germany the average percent of returnsin mail order industry is about 20-30%!) The costs of the return management (logistics, porto, product quality, etc.)are therefore an important element within the customervalue analysis.

The contest is finished. It was started on April 15, 2004. Deadline for handing in the results was May 13, 2004.
