Dealing with seasonality

Check for seasonality

gifts.groupby("month")["amount"].mean()
gifts.groupby("month").size()

Use appropriate timeline in history

Seasonality and predictive models

Model timeline May 2018

logreg = linear_model.LogisticRegression()
logreg.fit(X_may2018, y_may2018)

predictions = logreg.predict_proba(X_jan2019)[:,1]
auc = roc_auc_score(y_jan2019, predictions)
print(round(auc,2))

0.53

Model timeline January 2018

logreg = linear_model.LogisticRegression()
logreg.fit(X_jan2018, y_jan2018)

predictions = logreg.predict_proba(X_jan2019)[:,1]
auc = roc_auc_score(y_jan2019, predictions)
print(round(auc,2))
