The roots of the word 'cohort' can be traced back to the old french word 'cohorte,' meaning supporters, or to the Latin word 'cohors,' which means circle or crowd. In history, this term was used for a long time to denote a standard tactical unit — cohortes urbane of the Roman military. And in medical sciences, cohort studies are one of the proven epidemiological investigation techniques.

 

Apart from this cohort analysis is being conducted in various other fields. Let us look into its modern and industrial use and try to understand it in a bit more detail!

 

But first…

 

What is cohort analysis?

 

Cohort analysis is a part of behavioral science that is used to break the big data into different sets on the basis of a common characteristic. These sets or groups of data are known as a cohort. It is the most basic customer segmentation tool and, therefore, it is widely utilized by organizations nowadays. For example, if you are running a product-based site, you can divide the logged-in user (for a period) into those who downloaded the products and those who didn't. 

 

To conduct cohort analysis, you need to understand its basic structure. So let’s go through its basic stages

 

1. Finding the problem: You need to define the problem (in the general form) for which you start the analysis. It can be anything from low traffic on the site, a decline in the number of downloads, fewer in-app purchases, etc. This is the 'what' part of the analysis.

 

2. Hypotheses and identification: This is the 'why' part of the theory. You need to come up with possible reasons for 'why this is happening'. Like lag in application or website, non-user-friendly interface, or it may be some general event like Thanos snapping his finger and half of Terra's population vanished. 

 

3. Cohort formation: On the basis of the hypothesis, you need to make cohorts. Like users before the interface change and users after the interface change, users at a low lag time and a high lag time.

 

4. Conduct analysis: As you form a cohort with one or multiple characteristics now you can use data visualization to compare these groups and their behaviors. 

 

Oh, don’t forget the results of the analysis….

Understanding user behavior and, based on that, finding solutions for the problem statement is the end goal of cohort analysis. If analysis supports the hypothesis, so you obviously know the reason and solution to the problem. If not, then you need to conduct the analysis again with different hypotheses or cohorts.
