Bayesian Networks Learned with Evolutionary Programming for Direct Marketing Forecasting

Research output: Other Conference ContributionsConference Paper (other)Other Conference Paperpeer-review

Abstract

For direct marketing forecasting models, this study applied machine learning and stochastic optimization using Bayesian networks learned by evolutionary programming. The results of a ten-fold cross-validation experiment suggest that Bayesian networks have distinctive advantages over competing methods in accuracy of forecast, transparency of procedures, interpretability of results, and explanatory insight.
