Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences Webinars – Tayyip Topuz

Tayyip Topuz from KHAS will be the guest of KHAS Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences webinar series with his speech “Location-Allocation Through Machine Learning For E-Commerce Logistic Services” on Friday, April 15 at 14.00.

The event will take place on Zoom and is open to anyone interested.

Abstract: Companies desire to expand their businesses in such a way that there will not be any loss in their revenues. An e-commerce logistics company functions as the distribution and delivery of goods to buyers. To expand the business, opening new branches is a critical decision since determining the location of a branch correctly will not only help an e-commerce logistics company to increase its revenue but also improve customer satisfaction. The logistic network, which is based on locations, is the most vital input for their business. For such decisions, data science is becoming an essential tool in recent years. Research shows that demographic information has a considerable impact on consumer behavior in e-commerce. The demand potential is studied by using demographic data and the current demand for an e-commerce logistics company. The outcome of this work can be used to determine the location of new branches. Machine learning techniques are being used to decide the location of a new branch with the help of delivery demand potential prediction.
