Ecommerce Fraud Detection Through Fraud Islands and Multi-layer Machine Learning Model
Main challenge for e-commerce transaction fraud prevention is that fraud patterns are rather dynamic and diverse. This paper introduces two innovative methods, fraud islands (link analysis) and multi-layer machine learning model, which can effectively tackle the challenge of detecting diverse…
Microsoft Scheduler and dawn of Intelligent PDAs with Dr. Pamela Bhattacharya
In a world where productivity is paramount and only a handful of people have personal assistants, many of us are frustrated by the amount of time we spend in meetings, and worse, the amount time we spend planning, scheduling and…
