Topic #: 2
The best Predictive Analytic tools use which of the following? Select the best answer.
The correct answer is A.
The CPCM course states that moving into advanced category analytics includes predictive analytics, specifically naming collaborative filtering, clustering algorithms, regression models, and time-to-event models. Those methods require historical data, statistical modeling, and machine-learning-style pattern recognition. IBM defines predictive analytics as predicting future outcomes by using historical data combined with statistical modeling, data mining techniques, and machine learning.
Option A is the most complete answer because predictive analytics needs all three: historical data to learn from, statistical models to quantify relationships, and machine learning to detect patterns and improve prediction. Option B omits machine learning. Option C omits statistical models. Option D omits historical data, which is the base input for predictive analytics.
