Study shows non-systematic bias in customer satisfaction surveys limits data value.

problem Non-systematic bias in customer satisfaction surveys limits data value.
method Used real customer satisfaction survey data of a large retail bank to show the irreducible error and suggest thoughtful survey design methods.
result A thoughtful survey design can reduce non-systematic error in customer satisfaction surveys.

Reduce survey questions to scale market research without annoying customers.

problem Performing market research by surveying customers with many questions is inefficient and annoying.
method Used Bayesian networks to model and reduce the number of questions asked to customers.
result Demonstrated the effectiveness of the approach using an example of broadband customer segmentation.

Financial institutions use LSTM models to predict customer goals.

problem Predicting customer goals and actions in financial services.
method Used LSTM models with state-space graph embeddings on historical customer traces.
result Demonstrated the effectiveness of LSTM models in predicting customer goals and actions.

Customer momentum is a positive relationship between a firm's returns and past returns of its customers.

problem Understanding the relationship between a firm's returns and its customers' past returns.
method Examined customer momentum using a long-short equally-weighted decile portfolio and Fama-French factor models.
result Customer momentum generates significant monthly returns and is statistically significant.

Paper proposes a new topology for AML analysis using Poincaré embeddings.

problem Complex money laundering schemes and regulatory constraints hinder AML analysis and information sharing.
method Proposes a new topology for AML analysis using Poincaré embeddings.
result Demonstrates improved AML analysis and information sharing through Poincaré embeddings.

Paper proposes a method to aggregate customer engagement data for better ranking of e-commerce results.

problem Cold start problem and under-representation of new or under-impressed products in e-commerce search results.
method Aggregates customer engagements within a day for the same query as input training data for machine learning models.
result Training models on aggregated data leads to better ranking of new and under-impressed products.

Study uses Open Banking data to estimate customer value, showing potential 21% increase.

problem Limited CLV estimation using single-entity data.
method Introduces PCLV framework using Open Banking data for comprehensive customer value estimation.

Silent abandonment reduces contact center efficiency by 5%-15%.

problem Measuring customer abandonment and patience in text-based contact centers is challenging due to uncertainty.
method Developed methodologies to identify silent-abandonment customers and estimate customer patience using text analysis and queueing models.
result Silent abandonment accounts for 30%-67% of customer abandonments and reduces system efficiency by 5%-15%.

DALC customizes LSTM models for detectors in large-scale traffic networks.

problem Fine-grained traffic prediction for large-scale transportation networks.
method Formulated as a finite Markov decision process, introduced ALC algorithm for automatic customization, and developed DALC for distributed customization.

Ebay uses forecasting and simulation to decide when to disable a vendor.

problem Determining the optimal time to disable a vendor to avoid customer loss.
method Data-driven approach involving multiplicative seasonality model, Monte Carlo simulation, and linear model.
result Identifies the best time to disable a vendor to minimize customer loss.

We study a general problem of allocating limited resources to heterogeneous customers over time under model uncertainty. Each type of customer can be serviced using different actions, each of which stochastically consumes some combination of resources, and returns different rewards for the resources consumed. We consid…

problem Improving health outcomes of high-need patients through better patient engagement.
method Data-driven behavioral engagement scoring pipeline for two aspects of patient engagement.
result The scoring method successfully predicts patient engagement and provides interpretable insights.

Study predicts customer data sharing in Open Banking and explains key factors.

problem Predicting and explaining customer data sharing in Open Banking environments.
method Hybrid data balancing strategy with ADASYN and NEARMISS, XGBoost models, SHAP, CART.
