Description

This data analysis project uses machine learning and data balancing techniques to create a predictive model higher than the target AUC-ROC (0.93 versus goal of > 0.88).

Project Overview

  • Interconnect provides landline communication, internet, and several complimentary services.
  • Clients select a monthly payment or yearly contracts.
  • Interconnect wants a model for predicting the churn of clientele.
  • If a user is forecast to leave, they will be offered promotional codes and special plan options.

Data Description

  • Data is valid as of February 1, 2020.
  • Four data files from different souces are provided.
  1. contract.csv - contract information
  2. personal.csv - the client's personal data
  3. internet.csv - information about Interenet services
  4. phone.csv - information about telephone services
  • The files are linked by the customerID column which contains a unique code assigned to each client.
  • The target feature is the EndDate column equal to No.

Project Goal

  • Create a classification model that predicts if a customer will leave soon based on the data files supplied.
  • AUC-ROC is the primary metric and needs to be at least 0.81, though greater than or equal to 0.88 is ideal.
  • Accuracy will also be reported.
