AI framework identifies suspicious trading patterns using K-Means++ clustering

Researchers have developed a new toolkit using K-Means++ clustering to detect suspicious trading patterns in capital markets. The framework analyzes a dataset of approximately one million financial transactions from 2012 to 2024, identifying 2.02% of trades as potentially fraudulent. The identified suspicious trades are categorized into types such as spoofing, pump and dump, insider trading, and fake breakouts, with a significant portion remaining unclassified due to the absence of ground truth data. The model's effectiveness is validated by a Silhouette Score of 0.561. AI

IMPACT Provides a novel AI-driven approach for detecting financial market manipulation, potentially improving market integrity.
