Detailed explanation of data analysis and grouping methods in cross-border e-commerce operations

Introduction

In cross-border e-commerce operations, data analysis is an important part of improving operational efficiency. This article will discuss in detail the quantity mark grouping analysis method and the attribute mark grouping analysis method, which are commonly used tools for cross-border e-commerce data analysis. Through reasonable grouping of data, its inherent connections and patterns are revealed.

Quantity mark grouping analysis method

Quantitative sign grouping analysis is a way to reveal the quantitative characteristics of things through data operations (such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division). This method is suitable for different data types, and the data can be divided into two main types according to various quantitative characteristics: monomial grouping and interval grouping.

1. Monomial grouping

The monomial grouping method is suitable for discrete data with a small amount of data and a small fluctuation range. In this approach, each quantity token forms a group. For example, you can group by characteristics such as product output, skill level, or employee length of service.

2. Interval grouping

The interval grouping method is suitable for situations where the data changes greatly. This method divides the overall data into several intervals, and each interval is regarded as a group to ensure that the data within the same group have the same nature, but there are qualitative differences between groups. The key to defining interval grouping is to determine the number of groups and the interval between groups.

Determine the number of groups and group spacing

  • Determination of the number of groups: It is determined by the data analysts based on the characteristics of the data. It should not be too few, which makes the data distribution too concentrated, nor too many, which makes the data distribution too scattered.
  • Calculation of group distance: Determined by the selected number of groups, maximum value and minimum value, the formula is: group distance = (maximum value + minimum value) / number of groups.

After completing the setting of group intervals, the data can be grouped and summarized accordingly to compare the differences between different groups.

Attribute mark grouping analysis method

The attribute mark grouping analysis method is a method of grouping based on the attribute characteristics of data analysis objects. This method focuses on the description of features and cannot perform calculations, but it can reveal the inherent patterns of the data.

Grouping method

In attribute flag grouping, data is classified by the boundaries of its characteristics. For example, the population can be grouped by sex (male, female), while more complex classifications can be called statistical classifications, which often require unified standards and catalogs based on purpose, such as classifying a country’s industrial sectors by industry into extractive and manufacturing industries. .

Necessity and advantages of combined use

The effectiveness of the grouping analysis method lies in distinguishing objects of different natures. Combined with the comparative analysis method, the deconstruction of the quantitative relationship within the group can be further deepened. The choice of this method is usually based on the different characteristics of attribute flags and quantity flags, making the data analysis more comprehensive.

Conclusion

By using the grouping analysis method of quantity flags and attribute flags, the data analysis of cross-border e-commerce operations will become more systematic and effective, helping to deeply understand the data distribution characteristics and their internal connections, thereby supporting business decisions and development strategies. optimization.
