A rejection inference technique based on contrastive pessimistic likelihood estimation for P2P lending

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a novel reject inference model for peer-to-peer learning.

• The proposed model uses rejected samples to model probability of default.

• The proposed model integrates semi-supervised learning with gradient boosting.

• The results implemented on two real-world datasets show the efficiency of the proposal.

• We reveal that the rejection rate affects the predictive accuracy of the proposed model.
