With the development of Chinas economy, credit scoring has become important. The general credit scoring model is to solve the two classification problems, but in real life we often encounter multiple classification problems. This paper proposes a multi-class support vector machine based on genetic algorithm, which can solve multiple classification problems in the behavior assessment model.

Credit Scoring Model

<span>Several credit-scoring models have been developed using ensemble classifiers in order to improve the accuracy of assessment. However, among the ensemble models, little consideration has been focused on the hyper-parameters tuning of base learners, although these are crucial to constructing ensemble models. This study proposes an improved credit scoring model based on the extreme gradient boosting (XGB) classifier using Bayesian hyper-parameters optimization (XGB-BO). The model comprises two steps. Firstly, data pre-processing is utilized to handle missing values and scale the data. Secondly, Bayesian hyper-parameter optimization is applied to tune the hyper-parameters of the XGB classifier and used to train the model. The model is evaluated on four widely public datasets, i.e., the German, Australia, lending club, and Polish datasets. Several state-of-the-art classification algorithms are implemented for predictive comparison with the proposed method. The results of the proposed model showed promising results, with an improvement in accuracy of 4.10%, 3.03%, and 2.76% on the German, lending club, and Australian datasets, respectively. The proposed model outperformed commonly used techniques, e.g., decision tree, support vector machine, neural network, logistic regression, random forest, and bagging, according to the evaluation results. The experimental results confirmed that the XGB-BO model is suitable for assessing the creditworthiness of applicants.</span>

Credit Scoring Model

This paper proposes different classification algorithms—logistic regression, support vector machine, K-nearest neighbors, and random forest—in order to identify which candidates are likely to default for a credit scoring model. Three different feature selection methods are used in order to mitigate the overfitting in the curse of dimensionality of these classification algorithms: one filter method (Chi-squared test and correlation coefficients) and two wrapper methods (forward stepwise selection and backward stepwise selection). The performances of these three methods are discussed using two measures, the mean absolute error and the number of selected features. The methodology is applied for a valuable database of Taiwan. The results suggest that forward stepwise selection yields superior performance in each one of the classification algorithms used. The conclusions obtained are related to those in the literature, and their managerial implications are analyzed.

The chapter developed a tree-based method for credit scoring. It is useful because it helps lenders decide whether to grant or reject credit to their applicants. In particular, it proposes a credit scoring model based on boosted decision trees which is a technique consisting of an ensemble of several decision trees to form a single classifier. The analysis used three different publicly available datasets, and then the prediction accuracy of boosted decision trees is compared with the one of support vector machines method.

Credit Scoring Model

Nowadays, one of the biggest challenges in banking sector, certainly, is assessment of the client’s creditworthiness. In order to improve the decision-making process and risk management, banks resort to using data mining techniques for hidden patterns recognition within a wide data. The main objective of this study is to build a high-performance customized credit scoring model. The model named Reliable client is based on Bank’s real dataset and originally built by applying four different classification algorithms: decision tree (DT), naive Bayes (NB), generalized linear model (GLM) and support vector machine (SVM). Since it showed the greatest results, but also seemed as the most appropriate algorithm, the adopted model is based on GLM algorithm. The results of this model are presented based on many performance measures that showed great predictive confidence and accuracy, but we also demonstrated significant impact of data pre-processing on model performance. Statistical analysis of the model identified the most significant parameters on the model outcome. In the end, created credit scoring model was evaluated using another set of real data of the same Bank.
