Abstract: A device in a data processing system for training machine learning models receives a transaction and forwards it to at least one of a plurality of integrated control action models that use outputs of one model as inputs to other models. The models are machine learning models jointly trained for taking each control action of a plurality of control actions on the transaction to maximize an objective function based on probabilities of the control actions matching corresponding target control actions. The machine learning models include a risk model that outputs risk prediction information for a first control action that indicates whether or not to initiate processing of the transaction. The device further receives the risk prediction information from the risk model, and executes at least the first control action based on the risk prediction information.
