Application of Classification Trees for Credit Rating Prediction
Original language description
This paper is focused on credit rating modelling using the technique of recursive partitioning (CART). In this study, we apply the methods of decision tree learning to create models for credit rating prediction. The models can be used to assess and monitor credit quality of companies and determine the contribution of financial predictors, especially when a certified rating is not available. In this study we present one nominal and four ordinal models based upon different splitting and pruning rules. The focus is paid to the performance comparison of various algorithms for this ordinal classification problem in terms of Somers' delta and ROC curves. Main findings of our study suggest that for our data both approaches perform well and provide comparable results in terms of classification ability.
