Customer Attrition Prediction 

Wed August 14, 2019 06:53 AM

Why are your customers leaving? Use the Customer Attrition Prediction accelerator to jump-start your analysis. The predictive model analyses financial factors involved to predict the probability of customer attrition.

What's included?

  • A structured business glossary of more than 100 business terms.
  • Sample data science assets

How does it work?

The glossary provides the information architecture that you need to understand why customers leave. And your data scientists can use the sample notebooks, predictive models, and dashboards to accelerate data preparation, machine learning modeling, and data reporting.

Quickly identify customers who are likely to leave so that you can get to the root of the problem.

When you import the accelerator:

  • The data science assets are added to a new analytics project along with the business glossary categories and terms files.

Data from the model displayed in the sample R Shiny dashboard app.

Prerequisites

Required services: To use the industry accelerators, you must install one or more of the following services on IBM Cloud Pak for Data

Service Required for
Watson Knowledge Catalog Importing data governance artifacts, such as business terms and categories. See Installing Watson Knowledge Catalog.
Watson Studio Importing data science assets to an analytics project. See Installing Watson Studio.
Watson Machine Learning Deploying analytical models. See Installing Watson Machine Learning.
RStudio Running R Shiny apps. See Installing RStudio.

Importing the accelerator

To use this accelerator on Cloud Pak for Data v4.7.0.0, complete the following steps:

    1. Download the customer-attrition-prediction-industry-accelerator.zip file, which is available on the https://github.com/IBM/Industry-Accelerators repository.
    2. Determine how you want to import the accelerator:
      1. All components can be installed by following these steps:
        1. Download the Industry Accelerators import script to the same path as the accelerator zip file downloaded above : import-accelerator-script download link
          Note : Ensure that the downloaded zip file and script are in the same path or the import will fail.
        2. Run one of the following commands to import the accelerator content into Cloud Pak for Data.

          Example 1: Run the import in interactive mode. When prompted, enter the required information.

          ./import-accelerator-script.sh

          Example 2: For a list of all available options, including how to pass arguments to the import script, enter the command:

          ./import-accelerator-script.sh --help

          Example 3: Run the import passing arguments. The following command will import the accelerator into a project named "customer-offer-affinity-industry-accelerator" on Cloud Pak for Data.

          ./import-accelerator-script.sh --hostname https://hostname:port --username username --password password --name "customer-attrition-prediction-industry-accelerator"

        3. To import the governance artifacts into Watson Knowledge Catalog, go into the project and run the import-wkc-notebook-job. Refer the Readme section for detailed instructions.
      2. If you would like to import via UI, follow these steps:
        1. Import the ZIP file that defines the analytics project to Cloud Pak for Data. The file name should have the following format: accelerator-name-industry-accelerator.zip.

          See Importing a project.

        2. For next steps refer to the Readme document after the importing the ZIP file.
