Credit risk evaluation model is generally regarded as a valid method for business risk management. Although the most of literatures about credit risk evaluation always use class-balanced data as sample sets, the study on class-imbalanced datasets is more suitable for actual situation. This paper proposes a new ensemble model to evaluate class-imbalanced credit risk, which integrates multiple sampling, multiple kernel fuzzy self-organizing map and local accuracy ensemble. To preprocess imbalanced sample sets of credit risk evaluation, multiple sampling approaches (synthetic minority over-sampling technique, under sampling and hybrid sampling) are improved and integrated to acquire balanced datasets. To construct more suitable base classifiers, multiple kernel functions (Gaussian, Polynomial and Sigmoid) respectively are used to improve fuzzy self-organizing map. Then, the balanced sample sets are respectively processed by the improved base classifiers to acquire different prediction results. The local accuracy ensemble method is employed to dynamically synthesize these prediction results to obtain final result. The new ensemble model can further avoid over-fitting and information loss, be more suitable to handle the dataset including different financial indicators, and acquire the stable and satisfactory prediction result for imbalanced credit risk evaluation In the empirical research, this paper adopts the financial data from Chinese listed companies, and makes the comparative analysis with the relative models step by step. The results can prove that the new ensemble model presented by this article has better performance than other methods in terms of evaluating the imbalanced credit risk.
