Machine learning is the technology of the future for retail
They are here to stay: Smart machines for retail. Independent machine learning based on software solutions has great potential, especially when it comes to the personalized customer approach. A number of business cases in personalization, implemented by prudsys AG, are already in use. “We are seeing huge market demand for using machine learning to predict customer (purchasing) patterns in real time. This is a topic we have been focusing on for about 20 years. At our annual event, the prudsys personalization summit, companies present successful projects actually in use and provide a look into future developments in the area of machine learning.”, says Jens Scholz, CEO of prudsys AG.
Karl-Heinz Land (neuland) is the keynote speaker with his presentation “Digital Branding in the age of digital Darwinism”. Michael Opel and Benny Liebold (prudsys AG) provide insight into new developments in the personalization software prudsys Realtime Decisioning Engine (prudsys RDE for short): Customers benefit from the prudsys RDE Release 4.0 which boasts a new web-based, modular architecture, providing KI services for numerous business cases. Users can flexibly manage and easily evaluate this using integrated campaign management.
In addition, Linda Becker (Sanicare), Kristin Bernstein (haven5) and Stefanie Möhle (Thalia – requested) show how to successfully implement personalization in practice.
