True
Cohort charts are primarily used in engineering and financial fields for data visualization.
False
A business might use a heatmap chart to visualize sensor data, such as temperature or humidity data.
False
Heatmap charts can be used to identify patterns and trends that would be difficult to see using other types of visualizations.
True
Cohort charts are primarily used to track the behavior of groups of people over a short period of time.
False
Heatmap charts can only be used for sales and customer data visualization.
False
The primary purpose of a heatmap chart is to represent data using only numbers, without any visual elements.
False
Cohort charts typically represent the number of people in the cohort who took a specific action during the time period.
True
Cohort charts can be used to track a variety of behaviors such as website visits, product purchases, customer churn, and app usage.
True
Heatmap charts and cohort charts are both powerful tools for data visualization.
True
A customer analytics team might use a cohort chart to track the product purchases of different customer segments, such as high-value customers and low-value customers.
True
Cohort analysis can compare data across both the X-axis and the Y-axis.
False
Cohort charts are typically displayed as a table, with each row representing a different cohort and each column representing a different time period.
True
An app development team might use a cohort chart to track the app usage of different customer segments, such as active users and inactive users.
True
A heatmap chart is a 3-dimensional visual representation used in cohort analysis to compare a metric across different data segments over time.
False
Match the following types of data with their visualization method:
Sales data = Heatmap chart Sensor data = Heatmap chart Customer behavior = Cohort chart Financial data = Heatmap chart
Match the following fields with their use of heatmap charts:
Business = Visualize sales data by region or product category Science = Visualize sensor data Engineering = Visualize financial data Marketing = Not applicable for heatmap chart
Match the following scenarios with their suitable use of cohort charts:
Business tracking customer segments' behavior over time = Cohort chart Scientist tracking sensor data = Not applicable for cohort chart Engineer tracking financial data trends = Not applicable for cohort chart Marketing analyzing website traffic data = Cohort chart
Match the following visualizations with their primary purpose:
Heatmap chart = Represent large and complex datasets Cohort chart = Track the behavior of groups of people over time Line chart = Show trends in a single variable over time Pie chart = Show composition of a whole
Match the following customer behavior with their representation in cohort analysis:
Website visits = Number of people in the cohort who visited the website during the time period Product purchases = Number of people in the cohort who made a purchase during the time period Customer churn = Number of people in the cohort who stopped using the product or service during the time period App usage = Number of people in the cohort who used the app during the time period
Match the following teams with their potential use of cohort charts:
Marketing team = Track website visits of different customer segments Customer analytics team = Track product purchases of different customer segments App development team = Track app usage of different customer segments Data engineering team = Track customer churn across different time periods
