Abstract

People who gathered to enjoy a specific event or content are called audiences or spectators, and show various propensity according to the characteristics of the crowd. Although there is such a difference, in general, the number of attendance is directly related to the business aspect, which enables stable financial operation for the sale of contents through various incomes, such as the admission fee and the use of other facilities. Therefore, prediction of audience can be used as a major factor in marketing and budgeting strategies. In this study, we review several existing models for predicting the number of attendance and propose an efficient machine learning model. In addition, we studied daily attendance prediction and abnormal attendance prediction using combine DNN(Deep Neural Network) and RF(Random Forest) model.

특정한 이벤트나 콘텐츠를 즐기기 위해 모인 사람들을 관중 또는 관객이라고 하고, 모임의 특성에 따라 다양한 성향을 나타낸다. 그러한 차이점은 있지만, 일반적으로 관중 수는 경영적인 측면과 직결되는 요소로써, 관람료부터 다른 시설의 이용료 등 다양한 수입을 통해 콘텐츠 판매를 위한 안정적인 재정 운영을 가능케 한다. 따라서 관중 수에 대한 예측은 마케팅과 예산 전략 수립에 주요한 요소로 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 관중 수에 대한 예측을 위한 여러 가지 기존 모델을 검토하고, 그 중에서 효율적인 머신러닝 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 또한 딥러닝과 랜덤포레스트 모델을 혼용하여 일별 관중 수 예측과 비정상적 관중 수 예측에 대한 연구를 진행하였다.
