Description
Summary:"This study compares the prediction accuracy and model interpretability, between a generalized additive model with an incorporated variable selection procedure (GAMSEL), and some representative methodologies used for bankruptcy prediction. Although the most flexible methods, as support vector machine SVM) with radial kernel or boosting perform well in this problem givmg high accuracies, they are harder to Interpret". -- Tomado del resumen.
