Along with it, as the internet grows, more data is exposed, which leads us to competitive advantages, especially during the pandemic and in the post-pandemic period. This work explores daily price data from the online website of one of the largest supermarket chains in Portugal, covering the period between February 2020 to March of 2021. To observe the market and the competition behavior, we applied the science of networks, a data mining technique that provides deeper insight into the structure of the retailer market. We used the Maximum Spanning Tree and added the most relevant links from the correlation matrix to represent the retail market. As a starting point, we were able to build five networks that represent the daily price changes for products, categories, and brands. Moreover, we study the network interactions using centrality measures, namely: degree, betweenness, closeness, and eigenvector. These outputs were useful by creating better visibility of the market using real data from online retailing platforms and making available the first input for future work and further research to improve the pricing strategies.Pinheiro, Flávio Luís PortasRUNSilva, Ana Catarina Lopes da2022-03-03T17:51:10Z2022-01-312022-01-31T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/133847TID:202952070enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:12:27Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/133847Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:47:57.239677Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
