In recent, hybrid market segmentation techniques have been widely adopted, which conduct segmentation using both general variables and transaction based variables. However, the limitation of the techniques is to generate incorrect results for market segmentation even though its methodology and concept are easy to apply. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme to overcome this limitation of the hybrid techniques and to take an advantage of product information obtained by customer's transaction data. In this scheme, we first divide a whole market into several unit segments based on the general variables and then agglomerate the unit segments with higher QAP correlations. Each product network represents for purchasing patterns of its corresponding segment, thus, comparisons of QAP correlation between product networks of each segment can be a good measure to compare similarities between each segment. A case study has been conducted to validate the proposed scheme. The results show that our scheme effectively works for Internet shopping malls.

This study was to investigate if there were any significant relationships between cultural destination selection attributes and travel satisfaction according to segmented groups of cultural destination attributes. Survey questionnaire was developed based on the previous study and data were collected from on site survey, which was one of the famous cultural tourism destination in Korea such as Booyoe and Kongjoo. Six dimensions of cultural destination attributes were identified from factor analysis and three different segmented groups were determined from cluster analysis. Then, Multiple regression analysis conducted with six destination attributes as independent variables and one travel satisfaction as dependent variable, while Fisher's Z score for three segmented groups were considered as moderator's variable. The results showed that cultural destination attribute affected respondents' level of travel satisfaction and there was differences among segmented groups in terms of their affecting factors to the travel satisfaction. These findings suggested that there were different segmented groups of cultural destination selection attributes and each group pursued different cultural travel products and services.
