This study proposes an innovative method to analyze the impact of various interventions on customer churn using the potential outcomes framework. The tensorized latent factor block hazard model incorporates tensor completion methods for a principled causal analysis of customer churn. The approach formulates a 1-bit tensor completion for the parameter tensor, capturing hidden customer characteristics and temporal elements from churn records. The model categorizes interventions by their similar impacts, enhancing the precision and practicality of implementing customer retention strategies. To ensure computational efficiency, the study applies a projected gradient descent algorithm combined with spectral clustering.

This paper is about a new way to analyze how different actions can affect customers leaving a company. It uses a special framework called potential outcomes to figure out what works best for keeping customers. The researchers created a new model that looks at hidden patterns in customer data and time trends. This helps identify the most effective strategies for keeping customers, making it easier for companies to make decisions. The study also tests its method on real-world data and shows how well it works.
