  1. 1. Predicting user churn using temporal information : Early detection of churning users with machine learning using log-level data from a MedTech application

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Love Marcus; [2023]
    Keywords : User churn; Customer attrition; Artificial neural networks; Log-level analysis; Random forests; Decision trees; Användarbortfall; Kundbortfall; Artificiella neurala nätverk; logganalys; Slumpskogar; Beslutsträd;

    Abstract : User retention is a critical aspect of any business or service. Churn is the continuous loss of active users. A low churn rate enables companies to focus more resources on providing better services in contrast to recruiting new users. READ MORE

  2. 2. Capturing time variation within systemic risk estimation

  3. 3. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Fanny Jeppsson Stahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Flood modelling; pluvial flooding; spatial variations in rain intensity; design storms; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM; 2D hydraulic modelling; Skyfallsmodellering; pluviala översvämningar; spatiala variationer i regnintensitet; typregn; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM;

    Abstract : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.
