Despite spending $1 billion on fraud detection software each year, fraudulent activity still costs banks over $50 billion annually in a rising trend that doesn't appear likely to change!

Sophisticated financial criminals are constantly changing their tactics. AI-based detection systems, dependent on large training sets of historical data, may be good at catching the low-value frauds but may struggle to pick up on the newest highest-risk approaches.

In this webinar, Harry Powell, Head of Global Solutions at TigerGraph and ex Barclays, will talk about leveraging graph-based features to overcome the accuracy barrier in fraud detection machine learning.

Machine Learning has transformed fraud detection in the last ten years, but it has hit a limit. Tuning your ML algorithms with traditional approaches has reached the point of diminishing yield returns. To deliver the next level of performance some fraud teams have introduced a new type of input data feature which carries extra information about fraudulent activity: contextual graph features based on the network of relationships in your data.

This talk will explore how graph databases can easily and quickly augment your existing AI-based detection systems and give you tools for intelligent investigation, transforming your ability to respond to fraud and sending a strong message to organized criminals to leave your bank alone.

Here's what you'll learn:

What are the limitations of Machine Learning and their effects on fraud detection solutions?

How to reach the next level of fraud detection performance by using contextual graph features.
