First of all, thank you for making the code for the loss function, metrics & example notebooks open source.
I am looking forward to trying this approach out. I have one question that I am a bit confused about.
The paper mentions that the model structure, in combination with the loss function used, allows for one model to capture both objectives: churn prediction and remaining lifetime value prediction.
First, it is capable of predicting the churn probability and LTV value simultane-
ously. It reduces the engineering complexity of building a two-stage model (Vanderveld et al., 2016)
— a binary classification model to predict repeat purchase propensity, followed by a regression model
to predict the LTV of returning customers predicted in stage 1.
Indeed, the loss function returns a composite of both churn & remaining value losses:
return classification_loss + regression_loss
However, the notebooks are split up in two, one for each separate objective.
Can one trained model indeed perform both tasks: the notebooks are split up to illustrate a comparison between the churn and remaining value tasks to two separate models?
Or are did I completely misinterpret the paper? In which it is meant that the type of model can perform both tasks, but you need two trained models: one fine-tuned for each task.
Thanks, and I am looking forward to trying this out. :)
