Researchers have developed DEXiRE-EVO, a new evolutionary rule extraction framework designed to enhance the interpretability of machine learning models used in predicting small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) defaults. This framework combines multi-objective optimization with the Contextual Importance and Utility (CIU) explainability method. The study, which analyzed data from over 50,000 Italian SMEs, found that ML models significantly outperform traditional logistic regression, and the extracted rules offer economically meaningful insights into factors contributing to financial distress.
