Abstract :
CARDWATCH, a database mining system used for credit card fraud detection, is presented. The system is based on a neural network learning module, provides an interface to a variety of commercial databases and has a comfortable graphical user interface. Test results obtained for synthetically generated credit card data and an autoassociative neural network model show very successful fraud detection rates
