TL;DR

Three different techniques are used: Multivariate discriminant analysis, case-based forecasting, and neural network to predict Korean bankrupt and nonbankrupt firms, with good results.

Abstract

Bankruptcy prediction is one of the major business classification problems. 1n this paper, we use three different techniques: (1) Multivariate discriminant analysis, (2) case-based forecasting, and (3) neural network to predict Korean bankrupt and nonbankrupt firms. The average hit ratios of three methods range from 81.5 to 83.8%. Neural network performs better than discriminant analysis and the case-based forecasting system.
