The data science team developed cloud-based machine learning models to improve the customer valuation and marketing campaigns processes. The solution deployed seamlessly integrates with centralized enterprise wide marketing campaigns scoring process across all properties and the entire active customer database. 

 

The solution alleviates the need for manual adjustments and resulted in double-digit accuracy gains over the prior valuation. An automated process was developed for curation of Point of Sale (PoS) item taxonomies using AI-based Text Mining and pattern recognition. 

 

 

Due to complex history of large acquisitions and accompanying variety of PoS backend systems as well as inconsistency in manual entry, there is a constant challenge of Master Data management of PoS items (Retail, Food & Beverage) within Caesars enterprise. Manual cleaning and curation are not scalable; therefore, Caesars’ Data Science team streamlined this process via automation and leveraged AI based solutions to perform this daily/weekly across ~500K individual items.

 

The solution developed leverages customer AI, text mining and pattern recognition algorithms to constantly maintain complete taxonomy of PoS items sold across Caesars outlets.  Manual efforts invested into adjusting PoS data and interpreting data were reduced by ~80%
