Predicting OTT Subscription Behavior Using Deep Learning: A Multi-Class Classification Approach with Feature Engineering and Class Imbalance Handling Prasenjit Chakrabarty, Raj Sinha International Conference on Engineering Technology and Management Icetm 2025, 2025 With the introduction of different OTT streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ Hotstar, subscription user behavior has become important factors in building customer retention, pricing, and content recommendations. These methodologies do not address the non-linear relationships that exist between important variables like pricing, quality of content, discount availability, and payment options. This study forms the basis for developing a deep learning approach to predicting subscription behavior for OTT platforms based on a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model. Preprocessing of the survey data for feature selection, label encoding, and normalization will include addressing the class imbalance on the dataset using SMOTE for balanced learning. The architecture contains batch normalization and dropout regularization, with training carried out using Adam optimizer for 500 epochs. Model application achieved a very high accuracy of $97 \%$, which is further validated on various classification metrics as well as confusion and accuracy-loss plots. The study pinpoints pricing, promotions, and satisfaction with content as the prominent factors responsible for subscription choices.
A Hybrid Deep Learning and XGBoost Framework for Predicting OTT Subscription Timing Based on User Behavior Analysis Prasenjit Chakrabarty, Raj Sinha 2025 IEEE 4th World Conference on Applied Intelligence and Computing Aic 2025, 2025 The rapid expansion of Over-the-Top (OTT) streaming services has resulted in growing competitive pressures on platforms to better understand their subscribers and retain them. In this study, we outline a hybrid predictive framework; a deep-learning based feature extractor integrated with an XGBoost classifier for predicting the timing of users' last OTT subscription. The data is collected through an online structured survey that contained questions on viewing habits, preferred platforms, and influential factors. To manage class imbalance to improve the models performance, we applied the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) to the training data. We trained a deep neural network with focal loss to produce meaningful intermediate feature representations for training a multi-class XGBoost classifier. The proposed model produced a test accuracy of approximately 93%. In-depth visualizations of the generated model including class distribution, confusion matrix, and recall at the class distribution level allowed us to evaluate and understand the model performance. This combined predictive framework is able to enhance classification accuracy and now characterizes user behavioral trends. The framework is applicable in areas such as individualized marketing, assessing churn, and analyzing subscription cycle; which is of great use for OTT service providers seeking to best utilize user engagement initiatives.
