Abstract: In the mid-1990s financial institutions began to combine consumer and business information to create scores for business credits. Enterprises in China, especially small and micro enterprises, have less credit information, resulting in the situation where only a small number of enterprises have credit information, while a large number of enterprises have none. However, semi-supervised support vector machines (S3VM) can learn from labeled data and unlabeled data and solve the problems of imbalanced credit data categories and insufficient sample information. The parameters of S3VM have a great influence on the effect of the algorithm, and the actual parameter selection is often based on experience. An SAS3VM algorithm was proposed to optimize the parameters of deterministic annealing based semi-supervised support vector machine (DAS3VM) with simulated annealing. Based on the small number of labeled credit data, the algorithm takes advantage of the unlabeled credit data to help study and use the simulate annealing to find the optimal parameters. Experiments were conducted on two categories of enterprise credit data and three categories of personal credit data. The results show that semi-supervised learning (DAS3VM and SAS3VM) performs better than supervised learning. The maximum accuracy of SAS3VM has been increased by 13.108% compared with DAS3VM.
