Abstract
The field of “Big Data” is vast and rapidly evolving. In this chapter, strict attention is paid to challenges that are associated with making statistical inferences from big data. We characterize big data by the four Vs (volume, velocity, variety and veracity) and discuss the computational challenges in marketing applications using big data. We review stochastic approximation, variational Bayes, and the methods for wide data models.
