In this era, machines can understand human activities and their meanings. We can utilize this ability of machines in various fields or applications. One specific field of interest is a prediction of churning customers in any industry. Prediction of churning customers is the state of art approach which predicts which customer is near to leave the services of the specific bank. We can use this approach in any big organization that is very conscious about their customers. However, this study aims to develop a model that offers a meaningful churn prediction for the banking industry. For this purpose, we develop a customer churn prediction approach with the three intelligent models random forest (RF), AdaBoost, and support vector machine (SVM). This approach achieves the best result when the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) is applied to overcome the unbalanced dataset and the combination of undersampling and oversampling. The method on SMOTED data has produced excellent results with a 91.90 F1 score and overall accuracy of 88.7 using RF. Furthermore, the experimental results show that RF yielded good results for the full feature-selected datasets. © 2022 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.
