Abstract/Index

Understanding the perverse feedback loop. A historical overview of sovereign debt crises. The feedback loop: banking crises as cause of sovereign debt crisis. The feedback loop: sovereign debt crisis as cause of bank crisis. The feedback loop: sovereign debt crisis and moral hazard. The dataset. Data sources, countries and time coverage. Real sector: real GDP, employment rate, output gap (% GDP) and openness. Government debt sustainability: current account balance, primary balance and fiscal balance. The analytical toolkit: linear models: logistic classification with LASSO regularization. Linear models: Kernel support vector machines. Dendrological methods: decision trees. Dendrological methods: random forests. Dendrological methods: extreme trees. Artificial neural networks: multilayer perceptrons for classification. Experimental procedure. Baseline model comparison. Widening the eyes of the machine: synthetic dataset creation. Forecast based on the subset 2006-2017. Possible implementations of the synthetic data generative model. An interpretation with the Shapley values. The Shapley values: an introduction. Explore the extreme trees.
