B2B e-commerce transaction prediction framework improves precision with DiCE and PyPARC

A new paper introduces a framework for predicting transaction propensity in B2B e-commerce, addressing challenges posed by heterogeneous buyer behaviors that traditional methods like SMOTE struggle with. The proposed approach utilizes Diverse Counterfactual Explanations (DiCE) for synthetic data generation, improving distributional fidelity over SMOTE. Additionally, it adapts the PyPARC framework for calibrated propensity probabilities, enabling customer segmentation into risk tiers. Evaluated on a large B2B e-commerce platform, this architecture achieved a 93.1% precision at a 0.8 decision threshold, significantly outperforming SMOTE-based baselines. AI

IMPACT This research offers a more precise method for B2B e-commerce transaction propensity prediction, potentially improving marketing campaign effectiveness and ROI.

    SPARC Segmentation to Prediction via Affine Regression and Counterfactuals

    Transaction propensity prediction in B2B e commerce presents unique challenges distinct from B2C contexts, primarily due to the heterogeneous procurement behaviors of organizational entities, which violate SMOTE's implicit assumption of within class feature homogeneity. Specifica…
