> Introduces a new dataset `apparel_trans.csv` and accompanying `apparel_static_cov.csv`. These datasets are extracted from R's CLVTools package. Is there documentation available for these datasets? I wasn't able to find anything...

> Link to [apparelTrans](https://rdrr.io/cran/CLVTools/man/apparelTrans.html) and [apparelStaticCov](https://rdrr.io/cran/CLVTools/man/apparelStaticCov.html) Nice, so this dataset is simulated, then. > Do you propose to add this new dataset, or use the synthetic covariates that we are...

Hey @AlexanderTrg , Development on `lifetimes` ceased 3 years ago. Here's the link to the successor library: https://github.com/pymc-labs/pymc-marketing Have you looked at a time series plot of the simulated data...

@AlexanderTrg did you take a look at the notebook I posted the link to? The Generate Synthetic Data section in particular uses lifetimes functions and is more relevant to this...

@AlexanderTrg I think I understand what you're asking now. When I read your original message I assumed you were using `beta_geometric_nbd_model_transactional_data()` to generate simulated data from a trained model; sorry...

The top plots applies the expected number of purchases as new customers are added, whereas the bottom plot compares the same customer's behavior in the training & test sets. Those...
