- Machine learning models are used to detect fraud by estimating the probability of fraud given transaction features.
- Building and updating fraud detection models involves significant work in feature engineering, model training, evaluation, and monitoring in production.
- Debugging a model that was performing poorly revealed an important predictive feature - whether a customer's email address was provided - that improved the model once incorporated.

Credit Card Fraud Detection Using ML In DatabricksDatabricks
In the Credit Card Companies, illegitimate credit card usage is a serious problem which results in a need to accurately detect fraudulent transactions vs non-fraudulent transactions. All organizations can be hugely impacted by fraud and fraudulent activities, especially those in financial services. The threat can originate from internal or external, but the effects can be devastating – including loss of consumer confidence, incarceration for those involved, even up to downfall of a corporation. Despite regular fraud prevention measures, these are constantly being put to the test in an attempt to beat the system.
Fraud detection is a task of predicting whether a card has been used by the cardholder. One of the methods to recognize fraud card usage is to leverage Machine Learning (ML) models. In order to more dynamically detect fraudulent transactions, one can train ML models on a set of dataset including credit card transaction information as well as card and demographic information of the owner of the account. This will be our goal of the project while leveraging Databricks.

veryone's heard about the Target breach at the end of last year; some of you may have been affected. One way to understand this breach - to borrow a phrase from Deep Throat talking about the Watergate Scandal in "All The President's Men" - is to follow the money.
This webinar will do that. It will detail what we know about the Target breach and how it happened. But it will place particular emphasis on the money trail - not only in terms of how the bad guys turn the data into cash, but also who ends up footing the bill, the role insurance can play, the likelihood of lawsuits, and so on. As such, this webinar represents a powerful opportunity to learn what really goes down as a breach unwinds from a respected professional who has been in the trenches for decades.
Our featured speakers for this webinar will be:
- Ted Julian, Chief Marketing Officer, Co3 Systems
- Mark Rasch, Chief Privacy Officer, SAIC

eKYC challenges to deal with refugees showing up in the system without historical records.
Explores common patterns in microservice architectures and how these are addressed in the gilmour library.
Discusses async signal-slot as well as synchronous request-response architectures.
Introduces unix inspired composition of microservices for more modular and flexible design.
You have probably heard of the major breach at the US retailer Target, in which 40m credit cards and their details were stolen. As with any incident of this magnitude, there are valuable lessons to be learned. One way to understand the breach more fully - to borrow a phrase from DeepThroat talking about the Watergate scandal in All The Presidents Men - is to follow the money.
This webinar will do just that. Using the Target breach as a real example, for which there is now much information in the public domain, we will detail what we know about how it happened. We will place particular emphasis on the money trail, not only in terms of how the bad guys turn the data into cash, but also who ends up footing the bill, the role insurance can play, and the resulting lawsuits and other repercussions (both the CEO and CIO of Target have resigned). As such, this webinar represents a powerful opportunity to learn first hand what really happens as a breach unwinds from a very respected professional who has been in the trenches for decades.
And here are three important take-aways from this highly informative webinar:
1. Why Chip and PIN is not foolproof
2. A detailed understanding of where the money goes post breach
3. Top tips for how firms must think differently about IR in the wake of Target-like incidents

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

• Little generalization
• But important infrastructure built
• Tools for manual investigation
• Graph search
7. Stopping fraud v2
• Tree-based models to estimate p(fraud | features)
• Target composite outcome
• Disputes,
• Manual tags
• Information from card networks
• Python as glue
11. Types of features
• Static features useful on the margin
• Card from risky country?
• Billing details consistent?
• Dynamic features really useful
• Velocity of charges from email recently?
• Utilize network information
12. Feature pipeline
• Slow Hadoop jobs compute features
• Sampling doesn’t really help
• Luigi manages dependencies
• Only re-run jobs with changes
• Load results to database

16. Model debugging
• Added dynamic email features to model
• Velocity of charges from email recently?
• Quantitative measures good
• High feature importance
• Overall model performance improved
• Weird issues in staging
• Systematic false positives
• High velocity did not yield higher p(fraud)
17. Model debugging (cont.)
• Old fashioned data analysis reveals…
• Likelihood of fraud much higher when email undefined
than when defined
• p(fraud | email undefined) = ~14%
• p(fraud | email defined) = ~5%
• In other words, email missing “predictive” of fraud
18. Model debugging (cont.)
• Email attribute of Customer
• If credit card declined during customer creation*,
fails with `CardError`
• Fraud correlated with decline, thus missing email
stripe.Customer.create(
source={
'object': 'card',
# Test card for declines
'number': '4000000000000002',
'exp_year': '2016',
'exp_month': 1,
}
)
* Not exactly accurate, as most users tokenize cards rather than creating customers with cards directly
19. • Apply this model on live traffic:

24. Model evaluation (cont.)
• Maintaining reproducibility annoying
• Originally store pickled models on S3
• But wrapper code sometimes changes
• But sklearn sometimes changes
25. Summary
• Python glues together whole pipeline
• Adding a simple feature can be hard
• Spend a lot of time on feature
engineering, model evaluation
