Except, we now have two instead of one predictor. We have multivariate linear regression. # So, using the above coefficients, the linear part of our predictor is # # $$z = -60.125 + 0.087423*FicoScore -0.000174*LoanAmount$$ # Finally, the probability of our desired outcome, ie our getting a loan at 12% interest or less, is # # $$p(z) = \frac{1}{1 + e^{b_0 + b_1*FicoScore + b_2*LoanAmount}}$$ # # where $b_0 = −60.125, b_1 = 0.087423$ and $b_2 = −0.000174$ # We create a function in code that encapsulates all this. # # It takes as input, a borrowers FICO score, the desired loan amount and the coefficient vector from our model. It returns a probability of getting the loan, a number between 0 and 1. # In[14]: def pz(fico,amt,coeff): # compute the linear expression by multipyling the inputs by their respective coefficients. # note that the coefficient array has the intercept coefficient at the end z = coeff[0]*fico + coeff[1]*amt + coeff[2] return 1/(1+exp(-1*z)) # Now we use our data FICO=720 and Loan Amount=10,000 to get a probability using the z value # and the logistic formula. # In[15]: pz(720,10000,coeff) # This value of 0.746 tells us we have a good chance of getting the loan we want, according to our criterion, where anything above 0.67 was considered a 'yes'. # Now we are going to try (fico, amt) pairs as follows: # # * 720,20000 # * 720,30000 # * 820,10000 # * 820,20000 # * 820,30000 # In[16]: print("Trying multiple FICO Loan Amount combinations: ") print('----') print("fico=720, amt=10,000") print(pz(720,10000,coeff)) print("fico=720, amt=20,000") print(pz(720,20000,coeff)) print("fico=720, amt=30,000") print(pz(720,30000,coeff)) print("fico=820, amt=10,000") print(pz(820,10000,coeff)) print("fico=820, amt=20,000") print(pz(820,20000,coeff)) print("fico=820, amt=30,000") print(pz(820,30000,coeff)) # We see as somewhat expected that the person with a 720 FICO Score will have decreasing probability of getting loans with higher amounts. # However, the person with the 820 FICO Score is very likely to get loans with those amounts, again as expected. # In[17]: pz(820,63000,coeff) # # ### Exercise # Try the following pairs of (fico, amt) values and plug them into the pz() function mimicing the syntax below. What insight does this give you? # # # * 820,50000 # * 820,60000 # * 820,70000 # * 820,63000 # * 820,65000 # # Place your cursor on the cell below. Hit shift-enter to recreate the result. # Then click Insert->Cell Below via the Insert menu dropdown. This creates a new empty cell. # Now enter the pz() function with the next pair of values. Hit shift-enter. # Repeat this till the end of the list of values. # Answer the question above, if possible. # Then explore other pairs as you wish. # In[18]: pz(820,50000,coeff) # ### Challenge Exercise # # Use the supporting notebooks in the appendix to learn some plotting techniques and try to create a yes/no plot for loan amount on x-axis and probability of loan on the y-axis for a FICO score of 720. Do the same for a fico score of 820. # # ### Extra Challenge Exercise # # How would you create a plot that showed the probability of getting a loan as a function of _both_ FICO score and loan amount varying? What tools would you need? # # --- # ### Conclusion # # We see for the (720, 10000) case, a probability close to 0.7 which tells us that we have a good chance of getting the loan at a favorable interest rate. # Using our threshold of 0.67 we count this as a 'yes'. # # Using a Logistic Regression model, a desired Interest Rate of 12 per cent, we use dthe Lending Club dataset to compute a probability that we will get a 10,000 dollar loan with a FICO Score of 720. Our result indicated with a strong degree of certainty that we would be able to procure a loan with these terms. # # When we try the multiple combinations we see the following: # # * With a FICO Score of 720 the chance of a 20,000 and 30,000 Loan is lower than 0.67 so we count that as a probable "no". # * For the same amounts the FICO=820 score corresponds to probabilities greater than 0.75 and we count that as a "yes". # * For the same FICO the probability goes down with increasing Loan Amount # * For the same Loan Amount, the lower FICO has a lower probability. # * This is consistent with the signs of the coefficients for these variables in our model. # # --- # # In[19]: from IPython.core.display import HTML def css_styling(): styles = open("../styles/custom.css", "r").read() return HTML(styles) css_styling()
