Undersampling bankruptcy prediction: Taiwan bankruptcy data.

Machine learning models have increasingly been used in bankruptcy prediction. However, the observed historical data of bankrupt companies are often affected by data imbalance, which causes incorrect prediction, resulting in substantial economic losses. Many studies have proposed the insolvency imbal...

description Machine learning models have increasingly been used in bankruptcy prediction.
