Robust Cross-Validation of Predictive Models Used in Credit Default Risk by Jose Vicente Alonso, Lorenzo Escot

“…Model validation is a challenging Machine Learning task, usually more difficult for consumer credit default models because of the availability of small datasets, the modeling of low-frequency events (imbalanced data), and the bias in the explanatory variables induced by the train/test sets split of the validation techniques (covariate shift). While many methodologies have been developed, cross-validation is perhaps the most widely accepted, often being part of the model development process by optimizing the hyperparameters of predictive algorithms. …”
