Operationalize deep learning models for fraud detection with Azure Machine Learning Workbench - Strata Data Conference in London 2018

Recent advancements in computing technologies along with the increasing popularity of ecommerce platforms have radically amplified the risk of online fraud for financial services companies and their customers. Failing to properly recognize and prevent fraud results in billions of dollars of loss per year for the financial industry. This trend has urged companies to look into many popular artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, including deep learning for fraud detection. Deep learning can uncover patterns in tremendously large datasets and independently learn new concepts from raw data without extensive manual feature engineering. For this reason, deep learning has shown superior performance in domains such as object recognition and image classification.
