Research on the Loss of Catering Service Merchants in Colleges and Universities

Abstract

In recent years, the loss of catering service merchants in colleges and universities has become a major prob- lem restricting the development of catering. Therefore, it is an important task for catering managers to predict and ana- lyze the lost merchants and take measures to improve the retention rate of old merchants and reduce operating costs. Based on the flow data of catering in Beijing universities, this paper uses a machine learning classification algorithm to predict the loss of merchants in two categories, selects the best classification algorithm, and uses this algorithm as a starting point to enable the upgrading of the catering business, consolidate the three-pronged education function of logistics service, management, and scientific research, and ensure the comprehensive development of the school.
