Bankruptcy prediction for credit risk using an auto-associative neural network in Korean firms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Empirical bankruptcy prediction models have been proposed and widely used in the last decades or so. Historic solvent and default firm data are collected and labeled appropriately. Statistical and neural network models are then “trained” to fit these data. A major problem is the imbalance of data, i.e. much more solvent data than default data. We propose a auto-associative neural network(AANN) that learns the identity mapping of input. By training the network with only solvent data, we built a bankruptcy predictor with better accuracies than conventional 2-class neural network based predictor

متن کاملFinancial distress prediction using the hybrid associative memory with translation
This paper presents an alternative technique for financial distress prediction systems. The method is based on a type of neural network, which is called hybrid associative memory with translation. While many different neural network architectures have successfully been used to predict credit risk and corporate failure, the power of associative memories for financial decision-making has not been...
متن کاملUsing the Gamma Memory Neural Network for Bankruptcy Prediction: a Preliminary Study
Many static neural networks have been studied extensively in financial classification problems. However, dynamic time series predictive classification using neural networks with memory, such as the Gamma Memory neural network (GMNN), may prove more accurate. In this study we compare the predictive accuracy of the GMNN to the Multilayer Perceptron neural network and the statistical approaches of...
