Abstract
A hypergraph is constructed based on historical shopping cart data. A node of the hypergraph corresponds to a shopping basket, and a hyperedge of the hypergraph corresponds to a unique product, the hyperedge connecting all nodes of the hypergraph representing baskets containing the unique product. A hypergraph partition algorithm identifies a cluster of shopping baskets represented in the hypergraph and determined to be similar to a given basket. Based on the cluster of shopping baskets a dual-level return prediction is performed. The dual-level return prediction includes predicting whether the given basket will be returned, and based on predicting that the given basket will be returned, predicting a probability that a product in the given basket will be returned. Based on predicting that the given basket will be returned, an ameliorative action is performed to reduce the probability.
