Resumo(s)
This study presents an automated text classification system for categorizing customer reviews
from Generali Tranquilidade, an insurance company, into 11 predefined topics, such as
Atendimento, Preço, Documentação, Burocracia e Processo and Ferramentas Digitais. The
primary objective is to enhance the efficiency and reliability of review analysis to support datadriven decision-making. The methodology integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) for synthetic
data generation to address class imbalance, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) for
classification, Conformal Prediction for uncertainty quantification, and SHAP values to interpret
the model by identifying the words that most influence each classification. The dataset comprises
1,943 Portuguese customer reviews, augmented with 1,727 synthetic reviews generated by
Claude 3.5. Key preprocessing steps include error correction, text cleaning, stop word removal,
lemmatization, and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) vectorization with
custom term weighting. The XGBoost model, optimized via Bayesian optimization, achieved a
59% accuracy on real data, with improved performance on minority classes when trained with
synthetic data. Conformal Prediction ensured 95.6% coverage for ambiguous reviews, while SHAP
analysis identified key terms driving classifications. Despite challenges like multi-topic reviews
and class imbalance, the system offers a scalable, interpretable solution for insurance feedback
analysis, with implications for improving customer satisfaction and operational efficiency. Future
work should explore multi-label classification and enhanced annotation strategies to better
handle real-world review complexity.
