What Makes Churn Prediction So Crutial? Everybody faces the same difficulties… Competition Forming Customer Loyalty High cost of customer acquisition Optimizing budget for customer retention People don’t want to hear any more
Basics of Churn Prediction Churn prediction starts with turning an abundance of data into valuable information and continues as a cyclic process. Preprocessing Preparation Mining Information • Define variable pool • Perform mining ETL • Attribute Importance • Normalization • Outlier Detection • Missing Value Cleanup • Build • Test • Apply Data Action

Pain Points About Existing Mining System • Too much manual effort: A new project for every new miningactivity • SAS licensing • Not leading, but lagging the business • Administrative overhead of distributed mining environment • Network overhead • Decoupled process monitoring • Data quality problems E-DWH DM-DWH SAS Server EndUsers
Agenda About Turkcell Technology Churn Prediction Existing Mining System in Turkcell Data Mining with ODM SVM Model Conclusion
Give a TrytoOracle Data Mining • Motivations • Building an automated mining framework based on our Oracle database experience instead of maintaining manual mining model cycle. • No extra licensing cost (under ULA). • High speed (close to real time) mining with database embedded mining. • Centralized mining activity monitoring & administration.

Other Remarks on ODM • No need to perform manual attribute processing in many cases • EDP : Embedded data preparation • ADP : Automatic data preparation • PL/SQL or Java based code generation • SAS to ORACLE model import • Eliminates data Movement • Eliminates data duplication • Preserves security

Creating the Case Table Variable Pool (400 variables) PREPAID and INDIVIDUAL and (ACTIVE or MOC-BARRED) Filtered Variable Pool Historic Churn Table JOIN MONTH(N)=MONTH(N+1) CASE TABLE
Building the SVM Model • CASE TABLE • 400 Attributes • Unique Identifier • Target Churn Value ATTRIBUTE IMPORTANCE CASE TABLE (180 ATTRIBUTES) FEB DATA MAR CHURN MAR DATA APR CHURN APR DATA MAY CHURN MAY DATA JUN CHURN COMBINE DIFFERENT DATASETS BUILD SVM MODEL
ODM on Oracle Exadata v2 • Initially we have used a large Solaris (100+ UltraSparc 7 cores and 640 GB memory) box to build our first SVM models: • It took 29 hours to complete model build & apply. • On Exadata this reduces to a few hours. • Mainly due to enormous improvement in data preparation stage.
