Abstract

This paper develops a model for predicting financial cycles in India, and defines leading, coincident, and lagging indicators to achieve the research objective. The dependent variable is binary, and Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) is used for correcting imbalances in the dataset. T...
