摘要：The purpose of this research is to evaluate several popular machine learning algorithms for credit scoring for peer to peer lending. The dataset to fit the models is extracted from the official site of Lending Club. Several models have been implemented, including single classifiers (logistic regression, decision tree, multilayer perceptron), homogeneous ensembles (XGBoost, GBM, Random Forest) and heterogeneous ensemble classifiers like Stacked Ensembles. Results show that ensemble classifiers outperform single ones with Stacked Ensemble and XGBoost being the leaders.
