Abstract

With the rapid economic development of China, the importance of credit consumption methods in China's economy and people's daily lives has become increasingly prominent. Based on the GiveMeSomeCredit dataset, this paper constructs an XGBoost model to conduct in-depth predictive analysis on credit default probability issues. This paper first performs meticulous data cleaning and missing value handling on the dataset, and divides the dataset to prepare for model training. Subsequently, the XGBoost model is constructed and trained, and parameter optimization is further carried out during this process. Finally, the model's performance is evaluated using key evaluation indicators such as Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and AUC, and it is compared with the random forest model and logistic regression model. The results show that the XGBoost model performs better. It can be seen that the XGBoost model has high application value in credit default probability prediction.
