Target-Dependent Churn Classification in Microblogs

چکیده
We consider the problem of classifying micro-posts as churny or non-churny with respect to a given brand. Using Twitter data about three brands, we find that standard machine learning techniques clearly outperform keyword based approaches. However, the three machine learning techniques we employed (linear classification, support vector machines, and logistic regression) do not perform as well on churn classification as on other text classification problems. We investigate demographic, content, and context churn indicators in microblogs and examine factors that make this problem more challenging. Experimental results show an average F1 performance of 75% for target-dependent churn classification

Short Text Representation for Detecting Churn in Microblogs
Churn happens when a customer leaves a brand or stop using its services. Brands reduce their churn rates by identifying and retaining potential churners through customer retention campaigns. In this paper, we consider the problem of classifying micro-posts as churny or non-churny with respect to a given brand. Motivated by the recent success of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) in word represent...

In Web 2.0, people are free to share their experiences, views, and opinions. One of the problems that arises in web 2.0 is the sentiment analysis of texts produced by users in outlets such as Twitter. One of main the tasks of sentiment analysis is subjectivity classification. Our aim is to classify the subjectivity of Tweets. To this end, we create subjectivity lexicons in which the words into ...

متن کاملChurn Identification in Microblogs using Convolutional Neural Networks with Structured Logical Knowledge
For brands, gaining new customer is more expensive than keeping an existing one. Therefore, the ability to keep customers in a brand is becoming more challenging these days. Churn happens when a customer leaves a brand to another competitor. Most of the previous work considers the problem of churn prediction using CDRs. In this paper, we use micro-posts to classify customers into churny or nonc...
متن کاملDo Topic-Dependent Models Improve Microblog Sentiment Estimation?
A topic-independent sentiment model is commonly used to estimate sentiment in microblogs. But for movie and product reviews, domain adaptation has been shown to improve sentiment estimation performance. We examined whether topicdependent models improve polarity estimation of microblogs. We considered both a model trained on Twitter tweets containing a target keyword and a model trained on an en...
