RGH-GNN enhances financial fraud detection with risk-gated graph neural networks

Researchers have developed RGH-GNN, a novel heterogeneous graph neural network designed to improve financial fraud detection. This model addresses the challenge of class imbalance in transaction data by incorporating transaction-level risk scores, generated by a LightGBM classifier, as edge weights. These risk scores guide a learnable aggregation mechanism, ensuring that high-risk transactions have a greater influence on learned representations. Evaluated on the IEEE-CIS fraud detection dataset, RGH-GNN significantly outperformed existing models, achieving an AUC-ROC score of 0.914 and demonstrating the effectiveness of integrating engineered risk signals into graph-based message passing. AI

IMPACT This model could significantly improve the accuracy of financial fraud detection systems by better identifying disguised fraudulent transactions.
