Abstract: Using the improved Excess-MAD algorithm based on Benford's law to establish financial statement whitewashing identification indicators, screen out 15% of the financial statement data available from all listed companies in the Chinese capital market from 2000 to 2021, about 14,000 pieces, and divided into three groups. Then, according to relevant financial theories, 11 financial indicators of 5 theoretical analysis dimensions are selected to establish a preliminary indicator set, and 8 indicators are reserved for modeling after being screened by Kendall correlation analysis. Finally, K-means, Gaussian Mixture Model and other clustering methods were used to establish the final binary clustering model, and Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion were used for extended evaluation. The results of the model run show that the clustering algorithm model established through this process can well identify the degree of financial whitewashing of the company's statements.
