Since 2008 when IPTV service entered the broadcasting market, the competition among interactive broadcasting media has been growing more and more fierce. To make a market strategy under the harsh competition, this study tried to make an IPTV customer segmentation based on the characteristics of interactive broadcasting media. From previous literature, this study drew five characteristics of interactive broadcasting media : ease of use, two-way communications, active control, variety of content, and economic efficiency. Two-step clustering based on these characteristics identified four customer segments. There were statistically significant differences in the five characteristics among the customer segments. This study profiled the customer segments and proposed competitive strategies for each customer segment.

The more the satisfied customers increases in customer satisfaction survey, the more the company has difficultly in improving the customer satisfaction. In addition, the effectiveness of practical application of customer satisfaction survey decreases due to its constitution limitation on its data analysis. To overcome these problems, it is necessary to develop a new method to identify the strategy meanings and find the dissatisfied factors of satisfied customers using the satisfied customers reclassification. This study focuses on the satisfied customer segmentation using Latent Class Analysis. The case study shows that the satisfied customers are divided into three subgroups using Latent Class Analysis and we draw meaning results such as satisfaction and dissatisfaction factors through analyzing each group. This study is expected to play the role as the groundwork for the revitalization of customer satisfaction survey.

This study presents a new customer segmentation method based on features that can predict the customer's buying behavior. In this method, we consider all variables that can affect the customer's buying behavior including demographics, psychographics, technographics, transaction pattern-related variables, etc. We define several features which are the combination of variables with the interaction effect by using C5.0, use SOM (Self-Organizing Map) neural networks in odor to extract the feature's patterns and classify, and then make features' rules using C5.0 far the prediction of customer buying behavior

The combination of information and technology makes dramatically increase both information quality and quantity. Almost of company utilize customer information for the purpose of increasing sales amount and profitability. The purpose of this paper is to discover customer information's utilization practices in the Korean financial industry. The case of K Bank's information analysis in the inbound and outbound marketing is provided, The customer segmentation is used for the inbound marketing by using RFM analysis. And the loan card model is used for the outbound marketing by using logit analysis.

Customer segmentation prediction has attracted a lot of research interests in previous literature, and recent studies have shown that artificial neural networks (ANN) method achieved better performance than traditional statistical ones. However, ANN approaches have suffered from difficulties with generalization, producing models that can overfit the data. This paper employs a relatively new machine learning technique, support vector machines (SVM), to the customer segmentation prediction problem in an attempt to provide a model with better explanatory power. To evaluate the prediction accuracy of SVM, we compare its performance with logistic regression analysis and ANN. The experiment results with real data of insurance company show that SVM superiors to them.

The biggest difficulty the small and small business currently face is not to have the effective cusomer management system that is the computerization of management. This suggests their will to introduce data marketing in order to differentiate 'Customer Marketing' and 'One to One Marketing'. The potential needs as well as visible needs of customer should be considered in order to research and analyze the customer data. At this point mayor enterprises are paying much attention to Customer Segmentation and their related markets are expanding rapidly. I'll give a brief introduction to the Multi Criteria Importance-Performance Analysis and go into the problems that should be considered and which phase to emphasize when building this system.

With the ubiquitous use of the Internet in daily business activities, most of modern firms are keenly interested in customer's behaviors on the Internet. That is because a wide variety of information about customer's intention about the target web site can be revealed from IP address, reference address, cookie files, duration time, all of which are expressing customer's behaviors on the Internet. In this sense, this paper aims to accomplish an objective of analyzing a set of exemplar web log files extracted from a specific P2P site, anti identifying information about customer segmentation strategies. Major web mining technique we adopted includes a machine learning like C5.0.

This study performs an exploratory investigation of the needs of the customers who use academic information service from a research institute, K, that provides information services for domestic academic institutions of natural science and technology. K institute is planning customized services in order to improve customer satisfaction on the academic information service And therefore, the institute begins the research on customer needs analysis and customer segmentation. The research is regarded as well-timed, because CRM implementation in public organizations has been activated recently. Data mining and data warehousing techniques were used for pilot analyses. For the purpose of customer segmentation, a mixed segmentation model, which adds product life cycle concept to the 'balanced customer segmentation' model, which in turn considers the value of customers from the organizational viewpoint and the value of organizations from the customer's viewpoint, simultaneously, was applied. The result of investigation indicated that, in the case of K, 'balanced customer segmentation' and 'contents reach approach' which uses data warehouse/OLAP, rather than those customer segmentation techniques that are often used within the industry, are the more potent ways of approach. This exploratory case study is expected to provide a useful guideline for 'deriving an organizationally unique CRM model' that recently is one of the hot topics in the CRM area.

The potential needs as well as visible needs of customer should be considered in order to research and analyze of the customer data. The methods to analyze customer data is classified into customer segmentation, clustering analysis model, forecasting customer response probability model, analysis of the customer break rate model and new customer analysis model by the purpose. In this study, we developed the CW-CLV (Correlation Weight Customer Lifetime Value)method that used AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process)rule for enhance the reliability of customer data and quantitative analysis of the customer segmentation, based on CLV(Customer Lifetime Value). We suggest to new variables and methodology from determined CW-CLV coefficients, because all of companies respect to the diversified customers classification and complexity of consumers needs. Finally, we unfolded any company's scheduling added new methodology using simulation and leaded conclusion about the new methodology.

In this paper we aim to find out consumer behavior based on fish shares in their buying ingredients, path segmentation, product and service quality, customer satisfaction and then we try to analyze the impact of them on each consumer buying behavior. In this study, first, consumers, divided by general merchandise retail store and traditional fish retail store, these also divided by two groups that are with high spending group and low spending group, so totally we have four parts of consumer behavior segmentation market profiles. Second, we analysis the affect of each factor on consumer behavior. That is, we try to analysis the effect of product and service quality on customer satisfaction in four seafood market group. The results of this study are summarized as follows;
