• Authors: Mar\'ia \'Oskarsd\'ottir and Cristi\'an Bravo
• Abstract summary: We develop a multilayer personalized PageRank algorithm that allows quantifying the strength of the default exposure of any borrower in the network. Results suggest default risk is highest when an individual is connected to many defaulters, but this risk is mitigated by the size of the neighbourhood of the individual.

• Abstract: We present a multilayer network model for credit risk assessment. Our model accounts for multiple connections between borrowers (such as their geographic location and their economic activity) and allows for explicitly modelling the interaction between connected borrowers. We develop a multilayer personalized PageRank algorithm that allows quantifying the strength of the default exposure of any borrower in the network. We test our methodology in an agricultural lending framework, where it has been suspected for a long time default correlates between borrowers when they are subject to the same structural risks. Our results show there are significant predictive gains just by including centrality multilayer network information in the model, and these gains are increased by more complex information such as the multilayer PageRank variables. The results suggest default risk is highest when an individual is connected to many defaulters, but this risk is mitigated by the size of the neighbourhood of the individual, showing both default risk and financial stability propagate throughout the network.

• Company-as-Tribe: Company Financial Risk Assessment on Tribe-Style Graph with Hierarchical Graph Neural Networks [62.94317686301643]
  Company financial risk is ubiquitous and early risk assessment for listed companies can avoid considerable losses. Traditional methods mainly focus on the financial statements of companies and lack the complex relationships among them. We propose a novel Hierarchical Graph Neural Network (TH-GNN) for Tribe-style graphs via two levels, with the first level to encode the structure pattern of the tribes with contrastive learning, and the second level to diffuse information based on the inter-tribe relations.

We propose a hybrid attack that exploits the exit information to improve the performance of existing attacks. We present a defense mechanism called TimeGuard specifically for multi-exit networks and show that TimeGuard mitigates the newly proposed attacks perfectly.

  We study the problem of off-policy evaluation for slate bandits, for the typical case in which the logging policy factorizes over the slots of the slate. We show that the risk improvement over PI grows linearly with the number of slots, and linearly with the gap between the arithmetic and the harmonic mean of a set of slot-level divergences.
