scholarly journals Employee Churn Rate Prediction and Performance Using Machine Learning

A person working for an organization is the vital resource which is known as an employee. If one of them leaves company suddenly, this could affect and cost massive amount to respective company. And recruitment would consume not only time and money but also the newly joined person needs some time for making particular business cost-effective. This model will help to predict rate at which employees are quitting jobs based on obtained analytic data accessible and use different machine learning algorithms to decrease prediction error. Personalized or individual employee’s prediction is different with respect to environment they are working in. While it has become apparent that employee churn prediction responds differently to salary, depending on their location, lifestyle, and environment, the linked knowledge and understanding remain fragmented. In this paper, we aim to design expert prediction system to deal with problems associated with lack of knowledge of employee behavior, to aware organizations about the importance of employee, to prevent unnecessary employee churn, and to improve growth of both separately

In recent years, the telecom market has been very competitive. The cost of retaining existing telecom customers is lower than attracting new customers. It is necessary for a telecom company to understand customer churn through customer relationship management (CRM). Therefore, CRM analyzers are required to predict which customers will churn. This study proposes a customer-churn prediction system that uses an ensemble-learning technique consisting of stacking models and soft voting. Xgboost, Logistic regression, Decision tree, and Naïve Bayes machine-learning algorithms are selected to build a stacking model with two levels, and the three outputs of the second level are used for soft voting. Feature construction of the churn dataset includes equidistant grouping of customer behavior features to expand the space of features and discover latent information from the churn dataset. The original and new churn datasets are analyzed in the stacking ensemble model with four evaluation metrics. The experimental results show that the proposed customer churn predictions have accuracies of 96.12% and 98.09% for the original and new churn datasets, respectively. These results are better than state-of-the-art churn recognition systems.

In this paper a cost-effective sensor has been implemented to read finger bend signals, by attaching the sensor to a finger, so as to classify them based on the degree of bent as well as the joint about which the finger was being bent. This was done by testing with various machine learning algorithms to get the most accurate and consistent classifier. Finally, we found that Support Vector Machine was the best algorithm suited to classify our data, using we were able predict live state of a finger, i.e., the degree of bent and the joints involved. The live voltage values from the sensor were transmitted using a NodeMCU micro-controller which were converted to digital and uploaded on a database for analysis.

Next-generation power systems aim at optimizing the energy consumption of household appliances by utilising computationally intelligent techniques, referred to as load monitoring. Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is considered to be one of the most cost-effective methods for load classification. The objective is to segregate the energy consumption of individual appliances from their aggregated energy consumption. The extracted energy consumption of individual devices can then be used to achieve demand-side management and energy saving through optimal load management strategies. Machine learning (ML) has been popularly used to solve many complex problems including NILM. With the availability of the energy consumption datasets, various ML algorithms have been effectively trained and tested. However, most of the current methodologies for NILM employ neural networks only for a limited operational output level of appliances and their combinations (i.e., only for a small number of classes). On the contrary, this work depicts a more practical scenario where over a hundred different combinations were considered and labelled for the training and testing of various machine learning algorithms. Moreover, two novel concepts—i.e., thresholding/occurrence per million (OPM) along with power windowing—were utilised, which significantly improved the performance of the trained algorithms. All the trained algorithms were thoroughly evaluated using various performance parameters. The results shown demonstrate the effectiveness of thresholding and OPM concepts in classifying concurrently operating appliances using ML.

Heart diseases are responsible for the greatest number of deaths all over the world. These diseases are usually not detected in early stages as the cost of medical diagnostics is not affordable by a majority of the people. Research has shown that machine learning methods have a great capability to extract valuable information from the medical data. This information is used to build the prediction models which provide cost effective technological aid for a medical practitioner to detect the heart disease in early stages. However, the presence of some irrelevant and redundant features in medical data deteriorates the competence of the prediction system. This research was aimed to improve the accuracy of the existing methods by removing such features. In this study, brute force-based algorithm of feature selection was used to determine relevant significant features. After experimenting rigorously with 7528 possible combinations of features and 5 machine learning algorithms, 8 important features were identified. A prediction model was developed using these significant features. Accuracy of this model is experimentally calculated to be 86.4%which is higher than the results of existing studies. The prediction model proposed in this study shall help in predicting heart disease efficiently.
