Hybrid Event: Chao Zhang - Large-Scale Corporate Default Modeling

Hybrid Event: Chao Zhang - Large-Scale Corporate Default Modeling

Tue, Nov 17, 11:00 PM
From The Thalesians
4.6

**Please Note! Speaker Change:** IAQF & Thalesians Seminar Series: A Kernel Machine for Large-Scale Corporate Default Modeling. A Seminar by Chao Zhang 6:00 PM Seminar Begins 7:30 PM Reception Fordham University McNally Amphitheater 140 West 62nd Street New York, NY 10023 Hybrid Event Free Registration! For Virtual Attendees: Please email web@iaqf.org for the link. **Abstract:** We present a scalable kernel logistic regression framework for estimating forward-looking, real-world corporate default probabilities using features derived from financial variables and structural credit-model outputs. This kernel machine is used in the Bloomberg Corporate Default Risk Model (DRSK). The model learns a globally defined nonlinear log-odds function in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. The chosen hybrid linear–Gaussian radial-basis-function kernel is universal and capable of approximating a broad class of nonlinear dynamics. Under standard conditions and an appropriate regularization scheme, the associated learning procedure is universally consistent, with prediction risk converging to the Bayes risk as the sample size increases. The application involves large-scale, highly imbalanced default data spanning multiple regions, sectors, and credit cycles. To address the computational cost of conventional kernel machine training, we combine majority-class down-sampling with selection-bias correction and select model complexity through cross-validation and Bayesian optimization. Empirical results demonstrate improved calibration and out-of-sample predictive performance relative to conventional logistic regression. The results show that universal kernel methods can be successfully deployed for large-scale, rare-event corporate default modeling. **Bio:** Chao Zhang is a Quantitative Researcher on Bloomberg’s Quant Risk Analytics team. His work focuses on the development of machine learning and quantitative models for a wide range of applications in finance and risk analytics, including credit, market, and climate risk. He earned his PhD in Mathematical Statistics from the University of California, Santa Barbara, where his research encompassed functional and distributional data analysis, as well as statistical and machine learning.

Please read *Witchmark* by C. L. Polk, winner of the 2019 World Fantasy Award. ("In an original world reminiscent of Edwardian England in the shadow of a World War, cabals of noble families use their unique magical gifts to control the fates of nations, while one young man seeks only to live a life of his own.") $8 donation requested via cash or Venmo @CLynn-Carr to cover meetup fees (which are substantial) & small costs of hosting. It is expected that this will be an in-person event. Stay tuned for evolving plans and dinner ordering info. (Please make sure your meetup settings are set to receive group communiques to your email, or email clynncarr@ gmail the day before if you want in on the food order but haven't gotten the email.)

Welcome to the final scheduled game of the year! * Warm-ups start **9:30 AM** * **1st pitch 9:45 AM**, our field permit is until 1 PM * Anyone that regularly late-canceled or no-showed to prior events pays in advance to hold their spot **$5 fee payment to Daniel** to reimburse for permits & baseballs. Pay in cash or electronic transfer to Daniel (put your meetup.com name in payment comments so I know who payment is from) * Zelle: 646-574-4014 * venmo: 646-574-4014 * PayPal: 646-727-0326 RSVPs go live Monday at 5:30 PM. **Club rule:** In accordance with NYC Parks regulations, **no alcohol or smoking** is permitted at the event, including on the field, in the dugouts, or in any adjacent public areas. This applies to all club members. Anyone choosing to drink alcohol or smoke is taking themselves out of the remainder of the game. All players must be at least 18 years old. Bring your own wooden bat if you have one. Pre-season & Fall games will not have the "community" bats that are at summer games. Be sure to ask before using somebody else's bat. If you break it, you've bought it. Please also bring batting helmets and share it you can. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Welcome to Casual Baseball Club (CBC). We are CoEd and all experience levels are welcomed this is a friendly but competitive game. We are open to all who are looking to play. The aim of each session is to have balanced teams facing each other, you will be assigned a team prior to the session and be expected to cooperate with your teammates. ***RULES*** \*Honor your RSVP! If you RSVP you are agreeing to make it to the session. Not showing up ruins the experience for everyone, so only RSVP if you can actually arrive. If something comes up, give us a heads up or simply switch your RSVP to not going. We don't charge you to RSVP unless you've no-showed or late canceled in the past. However, if you are a no show you will automatically be put onto the waitlist going forward. \*Slide Rule! When you are a runner on first base, and running to second base on a hit, make an active effort to get out of the fielder's throw (if you want more clarification just ask and we'll explain) otherwise we'll rule it a Double play \*Wooden Bats Only!! CBC supplies public equipment for anyone to use marked with green tape, however, players are welcomed to bring their own personal equipment and have it for their own personal use. So don't break somebody's beloved bat, just use the public bats. \*Team assignment When assigned a team please be sure to show up with that color. We supply the Meetup with Bats, Baseballs, Bases, Catching Gear, and Helmets. From your end, it is not too difficult to bring a colored shirt and a glove.

You can easily search for fantasy sports groups and events in New York on Meetup by entering your interests and location in the search function.

Absolutely! Meetup allows you to join as many groups as you like, catering to various interests and schedules.

Many Meetup groups are free to join, but some may charge a small fee to cover event costs. Pricing depends on the group.

Simply find the event you're interested in, click the RSVP button, and you'll be added to the attendee list.

Yes, creating an account and using Meetup is free. Some groups or events might have fees, but these are set by individual organizers.

Events can include live fantasy sports drafts, strategy discussions, and casual meetups to watch games together.

Yes, you can create and run your own group on Meetup, which allows you to host your own events and foster a new community.

Events can be either in-person or online, depending on the organizers' preferences. Check the event details for more information.

Join fantasy sports groups and attend events to meet like-minded individuals who share your enthusiasm for fantasy leagues.

While not every interest may have active groups nearby, you can always start your own and attract others to join.

The success and organization of events vary and largely depend on the group and its leaders. Active participation often improves outcomes.

Meetup creates opportunities to connect, but forming friendships depends on continued participation and individual interactions.

Meetup focuses on group activities rather than individual matchmaking, promoting community rather than one-on-one connections.

It’s okay to miss an event, but it’s courteous to change your RSVP status, letting organizers know not to expect you.
