Abstract

Credit card usage is a vital component of the global economy, but unpredictable customer behavior poses significant challenges. Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful tool for customer segmentation in the credit card industry. This paper systematically examines different clustering algorithms to identify the most effective approach for accurately categorizing credit card customers. The evaluation of clustering model accuracy is conducted through the Davies-Bouldin Index, Silhouette Score, and Calinski-Harabasz Index. This systematic approach aims to advance our understanding of how ML can be optimally harnessed to enhance customer segmentation, ultimately contributing to economic stability and growth.
