Abstract

Credit risk assessment plays an important role in efficient and safe banking decision-making. Many studies have been conducted to analyze credit scoring with a focus on achieving high accuracy. However, predicting credit scoring decisions also requires model construction that handles class imbalance and proper model implementation. This research aims to increase the accuracy of credit assessment by balancing data using Synthetic Minority Oversampling (SMOTE) and applying ensemble stacking learning techniques. The proposed model utilizes a base learner consisting of Random Forest, SVM, Extra-Tree Classifier, and XGboost as a meta-learner. Then to handle unbalanced classes using SMOTE. The research process was carried out in several stages, namely Data Collection, Preprocessing, Oversampling, Modeling, and Evaluation. The model was tested using the German Credit dataset by applying cross-validation. The evaluation results show that the stacking ensemble learning model developed has optimal performance, with an accuracy of 83.21%, precision of 79.29%, recall of 91.78%, and f1-score of 85.08%. This research shows that optimizing the stacking ensemble learning model with data balancing using SMOTE in credit scoring can improve performance in credit scoring.
