Abstract
Techniques are provided for determining anomaly scores for transactions based on adaptive clustering of the location of a given user over multiple transactions. In one embodiment, a method comprises obtaining transaction data for a given computer transaction by a user; extracting one or more location features from the transaction data for the given computer transaction; determining a user location of the given computer transaction based on the one or more location features; assigning the given computer transaction to one user location cluster of a plurality of user location clusters of the user based on a distance between the user location and centroids of each of the plurality of user location clusters, when the determined user location satisfies one or more predefined distance criteria; determining an anomaly score for the given computer transaction based at least in part on a centroid location of the assigned user location cluster; and updating the centroid location of the assigned user location cluster based on the user location.
