摘要:This paper evaluates the prediction of Earning Response Coefficient (ERC) through data mining. The collected data included 10 variables which are earning persistance, firm size, systematic risk, earning growth, earnings predictability, operating leverage, financial leverage, barrier to entry, transaction gains (losses) and ERC as a target prediction. Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) and correlation feature selection are applied in order to predict ERC which is trained and tested using 10-fold validation. Samples used in this study are 241 firms listed in the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSE) from 2000-2002. The results of experiments achieve two main finding: BPNN and correlation feature selection perform well to predict ERC and our prediction model is capable to select the relevant attribute for the prediction.
