Tool to analyze similarity?

I have a list of companies, with associated meta data. I am looking to find similar companies to a target, by examining select parameters from meta data. 

 

Is there a tool for this?

Hi @Dan5 ,

 

Take a look in the predictive grouping tools where you can group your companies statistically based on selected columns.

Hi @Dan5,

 

Supplementing @fmvizcaino's post with Interactive Lessons on the Predictive Grouping as well. If you're interested, those lessons can be found in the Data Science Learning Path. The Predictive Grouping In Designer lesson lays out the various tools so you can decide which is best suited to your use case...

 

Hope this helps!
