Abstract
Maketing provides a link between the banks’activities to the market and contributes to cre-
ating a competitive position of the bank. Therefore, creating an intelligent model that can accu-
rately predict bank maketing campaign has always been a great interest for investors and
financial analysts. The objective of this paper is to propose a model-voting to classify bank maket-
ing dataset. The voting model is constructed from three well-known individual artificial intelligent
classification models, including Support vector machine (SVM), Navie Bayes (NB) and Decision
Tree (DT). Analytical results showed the voting model was superior to other comparative models
for bank maketing dataset. Particularly, the SVM - NB - DT was the best voting model achieving
the highest result with 89.957% of accuracy. Moreover, other voting models as SVM-NB, NB-DT
aslo had good results with 88.975% and 88.931% of accuracy, respectively. Therefore, voting-
ensemble model is considered a suitable tool to predict bank maketing dataset.
Keywords: Bank maketing, Decision Tree, Navie Bayes, Support vector machine, voting

1. Introduction
Bank maketing plays a vital role in establishing beneficial relationships among stakehold-
ers. Bank maketing can be considered as the bank’s efforts to satisfy customer needs and realize
profit goals. Therefore, the bank needs to orient the operations of its departments and the entire
banking staff to create, maintain and develop relationships with customers - the factors that de-
termine its survival.
Thus, a wide range of methods have been proposed to improve the bank maketing cam-
paigns. For example, Hu used data mining (DT) in analyzing retailing bank customer attrition
(Hu 2005) or Li et al. also applied DT in predicting Credit Card Customer Segmentation and Tar-
get Marketing Based (Li, Wu et al. 2011). Moreover, several works used a classification DM ap-
proach to build a predictive model that can label a data item into binary classes (Abbas 2015,
Asif 2018). Several DM algorithms can be used for classifying marketing contacts, each one with
its own purposes and capabilities. Examples of popular DM techniques are: Naïve Bayes (NB),
Decision Trees (DT) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). NB, DT and SVM are individual
well-know models in classifying and were apllied in many works. For example, the SVM-based
classification model has been used to forecast soil quality (Liu, Wang et al. 2016), relevance
vector regression (RVR) and the SVM have been used to predict the Rock Mass Rating of tunnel
host rocks (Gholami, Rasouli et al. 2013). Jiangtao Ren et.al proposed a novel Naive Bayes clas-
sification algorithm for uncertain data (Ren, Lee et al. 2009). Moreover, many researchers used
Naive Bayes model to classify Web Documents (Ren, Lee et al. 2009), Text document (Zhang
and Gao 2011). With the popular application of SVM, NB and DT in classification problmes, in
this study the author hope create models-based SVM, NB and DT to improve bank maketing
prediction.
Actually, no study has developed voting-ensemble model to predict bank maketing project.
This is the reason why in this study the author uses NB, DT and SVM as baseline model to build
voting ensemble model that combines multiple prediction models (or learning classifiers) to im-
prove the performance of single (or baseline) models. The goal of the work is to propose the best
model to enhance the bank maketing prediction. If bank maketing campaign is forecasted cor-
rectly, financial institution can find the best strategies to improve for the next marketing campaign.
To evaluate the predictive performances of models, each model tare compared in terms of accu-
racy, precision and sensitivity.
The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. Section 2 elucidates SVM, DT, NB,
voting method and the predictive evaluation methods. The collection and detail of bank maket-
ing dataset, and analytical results are mentioned in Section 3. Finally, conclusions are given in
Section 4.
2. Methodology
2.1. Individual baseline models
2.1.1. Support vector machine
Introduced by Vapnik et al. (1995) (Vapnik 1995), the SVMs executes a classification by
constructing an N-dimensional hyperplane that optimally separates the data into binary categories.

The support vector would train sample points at the edge of segment, while the “machine” was
to some concerned algorithms in the field of machine learning (Zhang, Yang et al. 2015).
The best hyperplane for a SVMs means the one with the largest margin between the two
classes. Margin means the maximal width of the slab parallel to the hyperplane that has no interior
data points. Figure 1 shows a basic structure of the binary support vector machines.
2.1.2. Navie Bayes
A Naive Bayes classifier is a probabilistic machine learning model that’s used for classifi-
cation task. The classifier is based on the Bayes theorem. Although Naive Bayes is simplicity, it
often outperforms more sophisticated classification methods (Langley 1992). Many researchers
have found that this assumption of independence donot work in all cases for which other alter-
native methods are proposed to increase the performance. However, the Naive Bayesian classifier
relies on two important assumptions. First, this simple scheme posits that the instances in each
class can be summarized by a single probabilistic description, and that these are sufficient to dis-
tinguish the classes from one other.
2.1.3. Decision Tree
This algorithm repeatedly splits the data set according to a criterion that maximizes the
separation of the data, resulting in a tree-like structure (Zhang and Gao 2011). The most common
criterion employed is information gain; this means that at each split, the decrease in entropy due
to this split is maximized. A major disadvantage of decision trees is given by the greedy con-
struction process: at each step, the combination of single best variable and optimal split-point is
selected; however, a multi-step lookahead that considers combinations of variables may obtain
different results.
2.1.4. Voting method
Voting is a method for a group in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion.
We can say voting is a method of combining multiple classifiers (Kittler, Hatef et al. 1998, I.
Kuncheva 2007). The reasons for combining classifiers are efficiency and accuracy.
In this study, the author obtained seven ensemble classifiers consisting of two to three dif-
ferent individual classifiers. The two-classifier ensembles were SVM - NB, SVM - DT and NB
- DT. The three-classifier ensembles included SVM - NB - DT.
2.2. Evaluated measurement
The performance measures that were used to assess the prediction of the proposed system
was the accuracy. It is clear that the accuracy is the most important issue to estimate the result.
Accuracy can be defined as the degree of uncertainty in a measurement with respect to an
absolute standard. The predictive accuracy of a classification algorithm is calculated as follows.
tp + tn
Accuracy =
(1)
tp + fp + tn + fn
Two extended versions of accuracy are precision and sensitivity. Precision measures the
reproducibility of a measurement, whereas sensitivity – also called recall – measures the com-

pleteness. Precision in Eq. (2) is defined as the number of true positives as a proportion of the
total number of true positives and false positives that are provided by the classifier. Sensitivity
in Eq. (3) is the number of correctly classified positive examples divided by the number of positive
examples in the data. In identifying positive labels, sensitivity is useful for estimating the effec-
tiveness of a classifier.

3. Numerical example: forecasting the bank maketing
3.1. Data preparation
We obtained dataset from University of California, Irvine (UCI) machine learning reposi-
response variable. The classification goal is to predict if the client will subscribe a term deposit
(variable y). The dataset gives information about a marketing campaign of a financial institution
in which people will have to analyze in order to find ways to look for future strategies and improve
future marketing campaigns for the bank. Table 1 showed the description of bank maketing dataset

It is very important to clear original data which is first stage in the process of data mining.
Besides, the results of modelling depends on the data accuracy. Following the research (Moro,
Cortez et al. 2014), this study also choose 9 attribites from 16 attribitue affected to bank maketing
campaign, including age, job, marital, education, default, housing, loan, duration, campaign and
one response variable. After that, the authhor removed the missing and unknow values from the
data to ensure the data quality. Therefore, the final data in this study contains 43194 instances.
3.2. Analytical results
The performance of the models was evaluated in term of accuracy, precision and sensitivity.
Whereas, accuracy is the most commonly used index, therefore high values of accuracy indicate
favorable performance and vice versa. Table 2 compares the performances of the individual mod-
els – SVM, NB and DT when predicting bank maketing data. Table 2 showed that with individual
model DT the highest results in terms of accuracy, precision and sensitivity (88.536%, 87.823%
and 86.802% respectively). From the table 2, we can see SVM-NB-DT model yielded the best
performance compared to other models wit 89.957% of accuracy, 89.087% of precision and
87.478% of sensitivity. The study wanted to demonstrate the popular apprearance of SVM, NB
and DT models in handling classification issue. Besides, the author combined these models by
applying voting strategy to create the best model which can improve the propsed dataset. Obvi-
ously, the combination of three individual models achieved better performance than those ob-
tained individual models. Fig.1 showed the performance comparison of all models in term of the
accuracy, precison and sensitivity.

4. Conclusion
In this paper, the author proposed the voting-models which were combined from three in-
dividual models (SVM, NB and DT) in classifying bank maketing dataset. Three performance
measures, including accuracy, precision and sensitivity were utilized to compare the predictive
performance of examined models.
Overall, the voting-based SVM- NB - DT was the best model for this dataset. Partically, it
achieved the highest values of accuracy, precision and sensitivity with 89.957%, 89.087% and
87.478%, respectively. In the future works, the author hopes to create more effective voting –
ensemble models which can apply more datasets.
