One purpose of this paper is to propose the hybrid neural network models for bankruptcy prediction. The proposed hybrid neural network models are, respectively, a MDA model integrated with financial ratios, a MDA model integrated with financial ratios and intellectual capital ratios, a MDA-assisted neural network model integrated with financial ratios, and a MDA-assisted neural network model integrated with financial ratios and intellectual capital ratios. The performance of the hybrid neural network model is compared with MDA model integrated with financial ratios as a benchmark. Empirical results using Taiwan bankruptcy data show that hybrid neural network models are very promising ones in terms of accuracy and adaptability.
