VIDEO: Superior Scorecards at Warp Speed – Algorithmic Learning Meets Domain Expertise

The video below shows Dr. Gerald Fahner, FICO Labs blogger and senior director in FICO’s Research Division, presenting FICO's innovative approach to algorithmic learning and domain expertise at last fall's INFORMS conference. In his presentation, he describes how FICO credit scoring serves as a perfect use case for illustrating the value in combining brute force machine learning algorithms (for fitting models closely to historic data) with domain expertise (for tuning models to the context into which they are being deployed – respecting business goals and constraints).
