• Well …. It’s been a learning curve.
• Visualisation: easy to understand information
about features and relationships.
• Interpretation: easy to follow the flow of
information between the features.
• Translation: easy to represent any business
question in a graph format and to modify the
graph to adapt to different questions.
• Graph models allow to include information on
the relationships between datapoints, enriching
the dataset.
• Graphs help uncover hidden features that can
be used in models.
• Graph specific algorithms like path metrics and
centrality and GraphML algorithms provide new
analytics tools in addition to our current Data
Science toolkit.

Not only a new language, but new tools
Graph model
• Converting tabular data (e.g.
clickstream/viewing) into a graph
structure allows for a clearer analysis
of the user journey and common
patterns through different sessions
• Graphs are made of:
• Nodes (features)
• Relationships
• Properties
