Recently, the following discrimination aware classification problem was introduced: given a labeled dataset and an attribute B, find a classifier with high predictive accuracy that at the same time does not discriminate on the basis of the given attribute B. This problem is motivated by the fact that often available historic data is biased due to discrimination, e.g., when B denotes ethnicity. Using...
This paper applies DEA model to a sample of 58 power plate listed companies in the securities market in China in 2008, with a view to identifying the financial risk companies and non-financial risk companies, instead of using ST in the past. Then, after comparing logit regression model and neural network LVQ in predicting the company financial risks, the conclusion was drawn that neural network LVQ...
Learning from imbalanced datasets is a well known problem in the data mining community. Many techniques have been proposed to alleviate the problems associated with class imbalance, including data sampling and boosting. While data sampling has received the bulk of the attention from the research community, our results show that boosting often results in better classification performance than even...
Corporate credit ratings are important financial indicators of investment risks. Traditional credit rating models employ classical econometrics methods with heteroscedasticity adjustments across various industries. In this paper, we propose using machine learning techniques in predicting corporate ratings and demonstrate, empirically, that multiclass machine learning algorithms outperform traditional...
