π³π¦ Credit Card Approval Predictor Project π¦π³
Project Overview: In this project, I will automate the credit card approval process using machine learning. The goal is to predict whether an applicant should be granted a credit card based on various features.
Dataset Description: The dataset contains information on applicants, including their credit history, debt-to-income ratio, delinquent credit lines, major derogatory reports, property value, and age of oldest tradeline.
Features:
- BAD: Binary (1 = Client defaulted on previous loan; 0 = loan repaid) π«βοΈ
- DEBTINC: Debt-to-income ratio π΅π
- DELINQ: Number of delinquent credit lines π
- DEROG: Number of major derogatory reports π
- VALUE: Value of Current Property π π°
- CLAGE: Age of oldest tradeline in months βπ
Approach: I'll employ a classification model to predict credit card approval. The process will involve data preprocessing, model selection, training, and evaluation.
Steps:
-
Data Preprocessing:
- Handle missing values β¨
- Remove duplicates ποΈ
- Taking care of outliers ππ§
- Normalize/standardize features π
-
Model Selection:
- Decision Tree π
- Evaluate the model's performance π
-
Model Training:
- Split data into training and testing sets π§©
- Train selected model on training data π
-
Model Evaluation:
- Evaluate the model's performance m accuracy metric π
- Analyze confusion matrix π
-
Hyperparameter Tuning (if needed):
- Optimize model parameters for better performance βοΈ
