3 Introduction! Tourism flows generated by the interest for food & drink are extremely important for Piedmont.! In this context typical high quality restaurants (THQRs) play a major role.! In May 2002, the Observatory on Tourism of Piedmont, in co-operation with SAS and EPAT-FIPE Piemonte, started a joint research project on THQRs.! This work summarizes some of the results that have been achieved so far! For further information please refer to the contact point reported at the end of this document SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 3

4 Work objectives 1. To build an atlas of typical high quality restaurants (THQRs) in Piedmont, combining the large numbers of restaurant guides available in bookshops 2. To compare Piedmont with the other Italian Regions in terms of number of THQRs 3. To study customer s preferences and to get an estimate of the use of restaurant places in different periods of the year SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 4

5 Methodological approach! To acquire as many as possible restaurant guides (possibly in electronic format to facilitate the analysis)! To use multivariate statistical methods and software (including state-of-the-art tools for text mining) to extract relevant information from them! To conduct surveys, interviewing restaurants owners and their customers. The first phase focused on top restaurants. SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 5

6 Progress of work! For 6 guides, the number of restaurants that have been reviewed for every Italian Region, has been determined.! The electronic format of the chapters related to Piedmont of three major restaurant guides has been acquired and analyzed.! Top restaurants owners have been interviewed in June, September and October SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 6

7 Some Results An analysis of the offer based on some restaurant guides 7

8 STEP 0: THE Giallo s DATA! The first preliminary step was based on the analysis of data provided by Giallo Giallo is a line of services of Consodata S.p.A., a company of the Seat Pagine Gialle Group, operating in Customer Relationship Management.! Giallo Dat@ offers a comprehensive database of 9 million households and 27 million individuals across Europe, all collected through national household surveys, for marketing intelligence needs.! Available data were the number of four different types of restaurants for each Italian province: " Ristoranti " Trattorie " Ristoranti Tipici " Pizzerie SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 8

13 STEP 1: DATA FROM RESTAURANT GUIDES! Apart from the classification of restaurants into 4 different categories, Giallo Dat@ include all types of restaurants! Therefore the second step has been to consider restaurant guides commonly available in bookshops.! Indeed this kind of guides, even if with different criteria, reviews only high quality restaurants! The guides (2002 edition) that have been considered are:! Gambero Rosso! Espresso! Michelin! Veronelli! Slowfood! Accademia! Touring Club! As for Giallo Dat@, the number of restaurants for each Italian region has been taken into account SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 13

21 STEP 2: IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF SOME RESTAURAUNT GUIDES! Veronelli Editor, Slowfood Editor and Touring Club provided their restaurant guides in electronic format (more precisely the chapter concerning Piedmont)! The availability of the electronic format of the guides opens the way to the use of multivariate statistical methods and tools, including state-of-the-art software for text mining! The pages below briefly summarize the achieved results using standard statistical tools and text mining tools on Veronelli s and Slowfood s guide. SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 21

28 From data analysis to text analysis! Restaurant guides contain both quantitative information, like prices and number of covers, and qualitative information (the description of restaurants)! Multivariate statistical methods for cluster analysis combined with tools for text mining give the possibility to explore the huge amount of information hidden in textual descriptions! The restaurant descriptions which are published on Veronelli and SlowFood books have been studied and classified! The classification is based on both textual and quantitative information using text mining techniques from SAS Text Mining Solution. SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 28

29 Typical structure of a restaurant guide Restaurant guides contain both quantitative information and qualitative information Quantitative data include prices, number of seats, opening hours Classical statistical methods are suitable to mine them Text describes, in an unstructured way, the restaurant. Recent advances in text mining give the possibility to explore it. SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 29

43 I ristoranti di Veronelli! In the next few pages some results of the text mining process on the Ristoranti di Veronelli guide are briefly synthesized! The main objective has been to divide all the restaurants into a manageable number of different clusters! Both quantitative and qualitative characteristics have been taken into account to describe each restaurant! Each cluster is homogeneous in the sense that it contains all the restaurants that have similar characteristics SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 43

44 I Ristoranti di Veronelli - Cluster Analysis Using clustering procedures, the 168 restaurants have been divided into 6 clusters 1 - Spacious Typical Restaurants Many seats Good prices Wide selection of courses and desserts Local wines Local dishes 4 - Creative Cooking Few seats Few courses Confectionery No parking facilities Reservation adviced 6 - Prestigious Restaurants High prices Very high vote and many chef s hats Excellent wines Confectionery Wide selection of wines and spirits Few seats 2 Novelty Not typical 3 - Typical and Rural Restaurants Local wines Wide selection of cheeses Good prices Soups 5 Very Good Typical Restaurants Good prices High vote and many chef s hats Excellent local wines Confectionery Good choice of cheeses and spirits In this context typical means closed to the values of territory in which the restaurant lives SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 44

45 Restaurants distribution in clusters CLUSTER It is easy to look at all the restaurants that belong to a group In this example we have selected group 6 (prestigious restaurants) SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 45

46 Means grid plot from Veronelli inputs Creative Cooking Restaurants To understand which are the distinguishing features of cluster 4, a comparison between the cluster 4 values and the population values is carried out for all the variables. Indeed the input means grid plot compares the data set input means (in blue) to those from cluster 4 (in violet). We defined cluster 4 as Creative Cooking because the value of this variable is higher than the overall restaurants. Besides, the variables col1-col60 represent words frequency in documents. Indeed, the analysis are made by using both textual and quantitative information. It is easier to look at textual analysis in a different way (see below). SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 46

47 Means grid plot from Veronelli inputs Very good Typical Restaurants A similar procedure has been adopted for all the clusters We defined cluster 5 as Very good Typical restaurants because the restaurants that belong to this group tend to be defined as typical in the guide ( Typical=si is higher than the overall restaurants). Also the number of chef s hats is large. SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 47

48 Categorical Variables Another way to look at clusters is as follows. The slice variable displays the categorical variable typical (cyan). The height variable displays the interval variable vote. The cluster 2 ( Novelty ) has no typical restaurants and the cluster with the highest vote from Veronelli is number 6 ( Prestigius Restaurants ). SEUGI21, 18 June 2003 N. 48
