Student Cooperative Micro-Credit Scoring & Fraud Alert System

Digital transformation in student cooperatives and community micro-finance requires automated risk assessment for small working capital loans. Construct a lightweight credit scoring agent using XGBoost and Polars to evaluate loan application risks. Achieve high default prediction accuracy while ensuring zero demographic bias.

What you are building

Build an automated micro-credit risk evaluation and fraud alert pipeline using Polars and XGBoost.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates default prediction ROC-AUC score and fair-lending threshold compliance.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

risk_threshold_check

Verifies that high default risk results in immediate REJECT decision.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

roc_auc

Area under ROC curve for default prediction model. • target: 0.88 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Ingest high-throughput transaction telemetry using Polars DataFrames

  • Train gradient boosted decision trees with XGBoost for default probability estimation

  • Enforce fairness constraints to prevent biased credit decisioning

  • Expose fast evaluation routines for embedded micro-finance mobile apps

Resources
