Abstract: A risk analysis system configures the decision engine to detect anomalous online activities by analyzing usage patterns associated with one or more user accounts across multiple frequencies. The risk analysis system obtains transaction log data representing transactions associated with one or more accounts, and extracts data from the transaction log data to generate time-series data along a time dimension. The time-series data may represent usage characteristics of one or more user accounts over a period of time. The risk analysis system derives pattern data representing usage patterns across multiple different frequencies based on the time-series data. The risk analysis system then configures the decision engine to detect anomalous account activities based on the derived pattern data.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to improving machine learning classification using both labeled and unlabeled data, including electronic transactions. A computing system may train a machine learning module using a first set of transactions (of any classifiable data) with label information that indicates designated classifications for those transactions and a second set of transactions without label information. This can allow for improved classification error rates, particularly when additional labeled data may not be present (e.g., if a transaction was disallowed, it may not be later labeled as fraudulent or not). The training process may include generating first error data based on classification results for the first set of transactions, generating second error data based on reconstruction results for both the first and second sets of transactions, and updating the machine learning module based on the first and second error data.

Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for clustering data vectors based on deep neural network embeddings. A service provider, such as an electronic transaction processor for digital transactions, may provide computing services to users. In order to provide actionable insights into users, accounts, and/or activities associated with the service provider, the service provider may provide clustering of deep embeddings from an embedding layer of a deep neural network model. The clustering may be improved to handle and utilize temporal data, such as time sensitive and/or changing data, using a long short-term memory model with sequential data. The embedding layer may be trained and used for embedding generation using a distribution-wise objective function and a silhouette score to determine cluster membership, cluster loss, and the number of clusters. Once trained, data records may be clustered and relationships between different data records may be identified for taking next-best-actions.
