Abstract

Multi-class classification problem is research challenge in many applications. Listing companies’ statuses are signals on different risk levels in China’s stock markets. The prediction of the listing statuses is complex problem due to imbalance in the data, due to different values and features. In the literature when the list status is divided into two categories for simple measurements using binary classification model, accurate risk management cannot achieved correctly. In this work, we have used SMOTE and wrapper feature selection to reprocess data. Accordingly, we have proposed an algorithm named as Twin-KSVC (twin multi-class support vector machine) which is used for multi-class classification problem by “1-versus-1-versus-rest” structure. Our experiments tested on large sample of data set; show that we could achieve better performance, in comparison with other approach. We have tested our algorithm on different strategies of feature selection for comparison purposes.
