Current studies on deep learning mainly focus on data sets with balanced class labels, or unbalanced data but with massive amount of samples available, like in speech recognition. However, the capacities of deep learning on imbalanced data with little samples is not deeply investigated in literature, while it is a very common application context, in numerous industries. To contribute to fill this gap, this paper compares the performances of several popular machine learning algorithms previously applied with success to unbalanced data set with deep learning algorithms. We conduct those experiments on an highly unbalanced data set, used for credit scoring. We evaluate various configuration including neural network optimisation techniques and try to determine their capacities when they operate with imbalanced corpora.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-25T18:47:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "machine learning algorithms", "credit scoring unbalanced data", "deep learning performances", "unbalanced data set", "neural network optimisation techniques" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
