Calibration alternatives to logistic regression and their potential for transferring the statistical dispersion of discriminatory power into uncertainties in probabilities of default
Performance validation of representative sample-balancing methods in loan credit-scoring scenarios
The authors validate 12 of the most representative sample-balancing methods used for credit-scoring models, finding that a combined SMOTE and Editor Nearest Neighbor method is optimal.
An end-to-end deep learning approach to credit scoring using CNN + XGBoost on transaction data
The authors find that machine learning methods can generate satisfactorily performing credit score models based on data from the 90-days prior to the score date, where traditional models can perform poorly.
