A computer system computes a score for a received data exchange and, in accordance with a neural network and input variables determined by received current exchange and history data, the computed score indicates a condition suitable for a denial. A set of attribution scores are computed using an Alternating Decision Tree model in response to a computed score that is greater than a predetermined score threshold value for the denial. The computed score is provided to an assessment unit and, if the computed score indicates a condition suitable for the denial and if attribution scores are computed, then a predetermined number of input variable categories from a rank-ordered list of input variable categories is also provided to the assessment unit of the computer system.

Generating accurate reason codes with complex non-linear modeling and neural networks

Systems and methods are provided for identifying and detecting unauthorized user activity and for decreasing the rate of false-positives. The disclosed systems and techniques may involve analysis of users' past activity data so that individual classifications and authorization decisions with respect to requested user activity are based on activity data associated with a user's use of multiple services.

Unauthorized activity detection and classification

This disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer-program products for determining classification rules to use within a fraud detection system The classification rules are determined by accessing distributional data representing a distribution of historical transactional events over a multivariate observational sample space defined with respect to multiple transactional variables. Each of the transactional events is represented by data with respect to each of the variables, and the distributional data is organized with respect to multi-dimensional subspaces of the sample space. A classification rule that references at least one of the subspaces is accessed, and the rule is modified using local optimization applied using the distributional data. A pending transaction is classified based on the modified classification rule and the transactional data.

Rule optimization for classification and detection

Systems and methods are provided for operation upon data processing devices are provided for operating with a fraud detection system. As an example, a system and method can be configured for receiving, throughout a current day in real-time or near real-time, financial transaction data representative of financial transactions initiated by different entities. At multiple times throughout the day, a summarization of the financial transaction data (which has been received within a time period within the current day) is generated. The generated summarization is used to determine whether fraud has occurred with respect to a financial transaction contained in the received authorization data or with respect to a subsequently occurring financial transaction.
