Comprehensible Credit Scoring Models Using Rule Extraction from Support Vector Machines

TL;DR: This paper provides an overview of the recently proposed rule extraction techniques for SVMs and introduces two others taken from the artificial neural networks domain, being Trepan and G-REX, which rank at the top of comprehensible classification techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

An empirical evaluation of the comprehensibility of decision table, tree and rule based predictive models

TL;DR: An empirical study is presented which investigates the suitability of a number of alternative representation formats for classification when interpretability is a key requirement and reveals a clear preference of users for decision tables in terms of ease of use.

Journal ArticleDOI

Bayesian neural network learning for repeat purchase modelling in direct marketing

TL;DR: Experimental evidence is provided that Bayesian neural networks offer a viable alternative for purchase incidence modelling and a combined use of all three RFM predictor categories is advocated by the ARD method.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multi-dimensional quality assessment of state-of-the-art process discovery algorithms using real-life event logs

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that the HeuristicsMiner algorithm is especially suited in a real-life setting, and it is shown that, particularly for highly complex event logs, knowledge discovery from such data sets can become a major problem for traditional process discovery techniques.
