Alternative credit scoring for the un(der)banked by Elrakabawy, S

“…I show that machine-learning yields substantial above chance probabilities in estimating credit risk, and I also manage to reduce the feature set dimensionality (i.e. credit request steps) by 96 percent at near-identical prediction performance, which translates to a quasi-single-question credit request. A major finding of my research constitutes a revelation of the relationship between homophily and credit risk, with loan applicants exhibiting similar credit risk profiles tending to be socially similar; a finding which I put to use by defining and testing various graph-theoretical structural social similarity metrics for their applicability to predict credit risk. …”
