Using Regression based Control Limits and Probability Mixture Models for Monitoring Customer Behavior

چکیده
In order to achieve the maximum flexibility in adaptation to ever changing customer’s expectations in customer relationship management, appropriate measures of customer behavior should be continually monitored. To this end, control charts adjusted for buyer’s/visitor’s prior intention to repurchase or visit again are suitable means taking into account the heterogeneity across customers. In the case of a subscription-based service provider, this paper discusses three types of adjusted control charts considering grouped data on attribute usage measures are available at each subscription period. With appreciating the characterizing effect of customer’s overall satisfaction on his future behavior, regression based models and probability mixture models are used to account for heterogeneity in customers’ mean usage rate. Besides adjusted Shewhart and CUSUM control charts for Bernoulli and Poisson distributed usage indicators, the likelihood ratio test based on mixture probability models are investigated in term of detect ability of the shifts in usage behavior through a comparative simulation study.

متن کاملA risk adjusted self-starting Bernoulli CUSUM control chart with dynamic probability control limits
Usually, in monitoring schemes the nominal value of the process parameter is assumed known. However, this assumption is violated owing to costly sampling and lack of data particularly in healthcare systems. On the other hand, applying a fixed control limit for the risk-adjusted Bernoulli chart causes to a variable in-control average run length performance for patient populations with dissimilar...

In certain statistical process control applications, quality of a process or product can be characterized by a function between response variable and one or more independent variables. This function commonly referred to as profile. Response variable can be continuous or discrete. All of the research assumes that the response variable is continuous. Whereas, some of the potential applications of...
متن کاملThe Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models
In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...
متن کاملImage Segmentation using Gaussian Mixture Model
Abstract: Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we used Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model were estimated by EM-algorithm. In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image was made by Bayes rule. In fact,...
