Text-Based Consumer Interaction Simulator

Overview
This project simulates text-based consumer interactions with a focus on churn risk. It integrates demographics, historical purchasing data, psychographics, and emotional/cognitive signals to produce rich, realistic conversation logs. These logs can be used for analysis, model training, or to enhance customer engagement strategies.

Key Features

• Context-Rich Scenarios: Incorporates user demographics, purchase history, and psychological traits.
  
• Churn Risk Modeling: Focus on detecting and exploring potential churn indicators in conversation flow.
  
• Scalable Generation: Easily expandable to produce large volumes of conversation data.
  
• Multi-Purpose Outputs: Ideal for analytics, training chatbots, and testing recommendation systems.

Installation & Usage

1. Ollama

1. Install Ollama: Follow the official Ollama installation guide for your environment.

2. Clone the Repository:
   

   
   git clone https://github.com/your-username/text-based-consumer-churn-simulator.git
   cd text-based-consumer-churn-simulator
   

3. Load into Ollama:

   • Use the Ollama CLI or API to point to the conversation simulation scripts.
   • Example command:

     
     ollama run --model=./models/consumer_churn_model --prompt=./prompts/sample_prompt.txt
     

4. Customize: Tweak the prompt, model parameters, or data sources in the config/ directory to match your churn scenarios and demographic/psychographic details.

2. GitHub

1. Clone the Repository:

   
   git clone https://github.com/skylerseeg/text-based-consumer-churn-simulator.git
   

2. Dependencies: Install required Python packages:

   
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Run Simulations:

   
   python simulate_conversations.py
   

4. Configuration:

   • Modify the config/settings.json to change demographics, purchase history patterns, or churn thresholds.
   • Create new conversation templates in the templates/ folder to expand scenario variations.

5. Development:

   • We welcome pull requests! See the Contributing section for guidelines.

3. Hugging Face

1. Hugging Face Hub: The model and scripts can be published to Hugging Face for easy sharing and collaboration.
   

2. Installation:
   

   
   pip install huggingface_hub
   

3. Usage:

   • Log in to Hugging Face:
     

     
     huggingface-cli login
     

   • Push your model or dataset:

     
     huggingface-cli repo create consumer-churn-simulator
     git clone https://huggingface.co/your-username/consumer-churn-simulator
     

   • Once pushed, you can load it in scripts or notebooks directly: “`python from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

   file_path = hf_hub_download(repo_id=“your-username/consumer-churn-simulator”, filename=“simulate_conversations.py”) “`

4. Inference:

   • Use the scripts and config files in your local or cloud environment, or leverage the Hugging Face Inference API if you convert this into a hosted model.
