Abstract

In the era of e-commerce, accurately predicting user purchase intentions has become a crucial factor for enhancing sales efficiency and optimizing the customer experience. Addressing the limitations of traditional ensemble strategies, which often suffer from subjective biases during the model design phase, this paper introduced an adaptive evolutionary ensemble learning model to predict user purchase intentions. This model adaptively selected the optimal base learners and meta-learners, incorporating both the predictive information from the base learners and the differential information between features to expand the feature dimensions, enhancing prediction accuracy. Moreover, to further refine the predictive capabilities of the model, this paper designed a binary adaptive differential evolution algorithm for feature selection, aiming to identify features that significantly influence the prediction outcome. Research results show that the binary adaptive differential evolution algorithm outperforms traditional optimization algorithms in global searches and feature selection. Compared to six common ensemble models and the DeepForest model, the proposed evolutionary ensemble model achieves a 2.76% and 2.72% increase in AUC value, respectively, and effectively mitigates the impacts of data imbalance.
