چکیده

 ABSTRACT This paper applies a decision tree model and logistic regression models to a real transportation problem, compares results of these two methods and presents model building procedures as well. The data set is partitioned into train, validation and test data. Due to the skewness of some variables, the variable transformation technique has been conducted and a transformed logistic regression is built. The logistic regression models perform better than tree model, while the non-transformed logistic regression model and transformed regression model are indistinguishable. The non-transformed regression model is recommended for this transportation problem.

A Comparison of Decision Tree with Logistic Regression Model for Prediction of Worst Non-Financial Payment Status in Commercial Credit

Credit risk prediction is an important problem in the financial services domain. While machine learning techniques such as Support Vector Machines and Neural Networks have been used for improved predictive modeling, the outcomes of such models are not readily explainable and, therefore, difficult to apply within financial regulations. In contrast, Decision Trees are easy to explain, and provide...
