Abstract

In today's highly competitive marketplace, especially for businesses, retaining loyal customers is becoming increasingly challenging.In one scenario, losing a customer results in a loss of profits for the telecom industry's expansion, while in another, the cost of acquiring new customers is significantly higher than the cost of maintaining existing ones; in this critical scenario, the telecom industry ought to concentrate on maintaining existing customers.This project will use supervised machine learning algorithms, primarily Linear Discriminant Analysis, Support Vector Machine, K Nearest Neighbor, and Random Forest, to analyze the open dataset of customer data and predict customer stress.

Keywords

Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Linear Discriminant Analysis, One Hot Encoding.
