Diffusion Transformer generates synthetic fraud data to improve detection

Researchers have developed a new diffusion model called EmDT, designed to generate synthetic data for fraud detection. This model utilizes UMAP clustering to identify specific fraud patterns and a Transformer network to capture feature relationships during the data generation process. Experiments on a credit card fraud dataset showed that EmDT significantly enhances the performance of downstream classifiers like XGBoost compared to existing methods. AI

    EmDT: Embedding Diffusion Transformer for Tabular Data Generation in Fraud Detection

    arXiv:2603.13566v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Imbalanced datasets pose a difficulty in fraud detection, as classifiers are often biased toward the majority class and perform poorly on rare fraudulent transactions. Synthetic data generation is therefore commonly used to miti…
