Abstract

This study will establish a predictive analytics model that uses churn prediction models to anticipate customer churn by evaluating their risk of churn. These models are successful in focusing customer retention marketing activities on the fraction of the customer base that is most prone to churn because they generate a short, prioritized list of probable defectors. We will start with exploratory data analysis in this paper. We will get a quick summary of the data using this way. The data is then further analyzed using feature engineering and feature selection. Finally, the target variables will be visualized using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) score test, features are picked after calculating the churn detection rate and comparing it to the average churn rate. The best part is then identified using Cross-Validated Recursive Feature Elimination. The accuracy, auc, and ks of each model were assessed after training, and the Gaussian naive Bayes, Logistic regression, and Neural network were finally picked by comparison. Model stacking is a technique for comparing model performance and ultimately deciding which model to utilize.
