Customer basket analysis (Data preparation)

Hello 
I work on customer basket analysis. I have a dataset like this for each customer basket:

Name               Number                 price           customer
pen                       2                            10                  1
bread                   10                           20                  1
fish                       2                             30                  1
...................................................................................................
bread                      3                          15                   2
salt                          1                            2                   2
...................................................................................................
pen                          3                           15                  3
bag                          1                            50                 3

Now I want to make columns for each Name and delete duplicate Names so I should change each row to the column then analyse them but I don't know how it is possible with RM? Also I should separate each customer basket from each other in to new rows. So it must be like this: ( for each Name which is in the basket of customer I should have "True" and which is not "False" in the row of that customer.)

Customer        pen           bread          fish          salt            bag  
1                      True            True            True         False         False
2                       False         True            False         True          False
3                      True            False          False          False        True

Can any body guide me? Also it is big data

Thank you in advance
Sara

    Hi @sara20,

    Here's a good tutorial on how to prepare the data and implement market basket analysis in RapidMiner.

    Hello

    Thank you for the answer and the link was great but I don't know how to clean my data? 
    I don't know how to change the place of rows to columns?
    Please read my question and the sample data again.

    Regards
    Sara

    Hi @sara20,

    The easiest way is to use Pivot option in 'Turbo Prep'



    Then just replace missing with false and no-missing with true (you can do this in Turbo Prep or open the process in 'Design' mode and use operators). Rename the columns accordingly.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you very much for your help but how can I change each row to the column?


    Regards

    @sara20

    The best way to achieve that in my opinion is to convert the columns to text and use value map and replace operators.
