Abstract
In the evolution of the electronic money system, frequent transaction fraud has been a shadow behind the prosperity. It not only endangers the property security of users, but also hinders the development of digital finance in the world. With the development of data mining and machine learning, some mature technologies are gradually applied to the detection of transaction fraud. This paper proposes a transaction fraud detection model based on random forest. The experimental results of IEEE CIS fraud dataset show that the method of this model is better than the benchmark model, such as logistic regression, support vector machine. Finally, the accuracy of our model reached 97.4%, and the AUC ROC score was 92.7%.
