A layout is a way of arranging the nodes and links of a graph visualization to convey meaningful information about the data. A layout is determined by a dedicated algorithm that calculates the node positions based on certain criteria, such as minimizing edge crossings, maximizing node spacing, or emphasizing clusters12. A layout can also be influenced by user interaction, such as zooming, panning, or dragging3.

A funnel chart is a type of chart that shows the values of different stages of a process, such as a sales pipeline, where each stage represents a subset of the previous one. A funnel chart is useful for showing the conversion rate, the drop-off rate, and the potential revenue or profit at each stage12. A funnel chart would be an effective way to present the data requested by the call center, as it would show the number of leads, calls, customers, and sales, as well as the percentage of change between each stage.

Unsupervised learning is a type of study that involves finding patterns or clusters in data without any predefined labels or outcomes. It is useful for exploring data and discovering hidden structures or groups of customers. For example, the professional association can use unsupervised learning to identify the characteristics of customers who are likely to cancel their subscription after their first 5-year term ends, and then design strategies to retain them12 References: 1: What is Unsupervised Learning? - IBM 2: Unsupervised Learning - IIBA BABOK Guide v3
