Abstract: A method for processing digital transactions includes receiving, from one or more source systems, a plurality of uncategorized digital transactions; and prioritizing the uncategorized digital transactions according to a key performance indicator (KPI) of each uncategorized digital transaction. A subset of the prioritized uncategorized digital transactions is communicated to a labeling system configured to apply a category label to each digital transaction. A subset of categorized digital transactions corresponding to the subset of the prioritized uncategorized digital transactions is received from the labeling system. Category label and a label confidence value are applied to each transaction of a remaining set of uncategorized digital transactions based on the subset of categorized digital transactions. The label confidence value is indicative of a confidence that a given label was correctly applied to a given transaction.

Abstract: A computing system for detecting fraudulent payment card network events includes a ratio striping engine that receives scored payment card transaction authorization requests and generates data structures for a plurality of account ranges. Each data structure sorts the transaction authorization requests within the associated account range over a plurality of fraud score range stripes.

For each data structure and time period, at least one cumulative metric is calculated from the transaction authorization requests in each fraud score range stripe. For each data structure, ratio striping values are determined between values of the at least one metric in a fraud score range stripe over two of the time periods. A fraud event associated with at least one of the account ranges is detected based on the ratio striping values for the corresponding data structure.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for identifying segments in categorical data include receiving multiple transaction ID (TID) lists with univariate values that satisfy a thresholding metric with each TID list representing an occurrence of a single attribute in a set of transactions. The TID lists are stored with the univariate values that satisfy the thresholding metric in a data structure. In a loop, candidate itemsets to form from combinations of TID lists are determined using only the combinations of TID lists that satisfy categorical constraints. In the loop, for the candidate itemsets that satisfy categorical constraints, both the thresholding metric and a similarity metric are applied to the candidate itemsets. Final itemsets are formed from only the candidate itemsets that satisfy both the thresholding metric and the similarity metric.

Space and time granularities that maximize accuracy within the assigned time limit based on the generated graphs are calculated. Cost simulation analysis is performed using the calculated space and time granularities. Upon determining that there are trade lanes not yet selected, there is a return to the act of selecting a trade lane.

Abstract: An automated method of predictive model development first cleans up raw supervised and unsupervised training data with a step that uses an algorithm to make every field of every record consistent, cohesive, and productive. Then the resulting flat data is given texture in a next step by a data enrichment algorithm that culls fields that do not contribute to predictive model building and that adds new fields computed from data combinations that are tested to add value to later steps that build different types of predictive models. Another late step for building smart-agents and their entity profiles uses another algorithm that benefits greatly from the cleaned and highly enriched training data. The predictive models and smart-agents and their entity profiles are then rendered as deliverable predictive model markup language documents in a final step executed by a specialized algorithm.
