Abstract
Application of multi-task learning technique(s) to machine logic (for example, software) used to detect financial transactions that are fraudulent or at least considered likely to be fraudulent. Some embodiments include adjustments and/or additions to conventional multi-task learning techniques in order to make the multi-task learning techniques more suitable for use in fraud detection software. One example of this is compensation for class imbalances that are to be expected as between the likely-fraud and not-likely-fraud classes of data sets (for example, training data sets, runtime data sets).
