Title: The Evolution of Fraud Detection Models
Author(s): Brian Hochrein*
Companies: IBM Watson Health
Keywords: fraud ; predictive ; Bayesian
Abstract:

Exploring how fraud detection models have changed over time, we start with descriptive statistics by looking at simple outliers in determining fraudulent activity. We then move to predictive models, supplementing them with social media and network analysis. As the methodology continues to advance we visit Bayesian models along with machine learning techniques. It is important to know whether the sophistication of these models are better at detection or simply keeping up with finding inappropriate behavior.
