Researchers have developed a new risk scoring system that directly optimizes for net benefit, moving beyond traditional metrics like predictive accuracy. This system is formulated as a sparse integer linear programming problem, allowing for transparent scoring with integer coefficients that enhance interpretability. The study demonstrates that optimizing for net benefit also ensures strong performance in discrimination and calibration, as validated on several public and large-scale credit risk datasets. AI
