The prevention of credit card fraud is an important application for prediction techniques. One major obstacle for using neural network training techniques is the high necessary diagnostic quality: Since only one financial transaction of a thousand is invalid no prediction success less than 99.9% is acceptable. Due to these credit card transaction proportions complete new concepts had to be developed and tested on real credit card data. This paper shows how advanced data mining techniques and neural network algorithm can be combined successfully to obtain a high fraud coverage combined with a low false alarm rate.
This paper describes the use of a Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network in the approximation of process parameters for the extrusion of a rubber profile in tyre production. After introducing the rubber industry problem, the RBF network model and the RBF net learning algorithm are developed, which uses a growing number of RBF units to compensate the approximation error up to the desired error limit. Its performance is shown for simple analytic examples. Then the paper describes the modelling of the industrial problem. Simulations show good results, even when using only a few training samples. The paper is concluded by a discussion of possible systematic error influences, improvements and potential generalisation benefits. Keywords: Adaptive process control; Parameter estimation; RBF-nets; Rubber extrusion
Diese Arbeit plädiert für eine rationale Behandlung von Patientendaten und untersucht dazu die Analyse der Daten mit Hilfe neuronale Netze etwas näher. Erfolgreiche Beispielanwendungen zeigen, daß die menschlichen Diagnosefähigkeiten deutlich schlechter sind als neuronale Diagnosesysteme. Für das Beispiel der neueren Architektur mit RBF-Netzen wird die Funktionalität näher erläutert und gezeigt, wie menschliche und neuronale Expertise miteinander gekoppelt werden kann. Der Ausblick deutet Anwendungen und Praxisproblematik derartiger Systeme an.
We present the FPGA implementation of an algorithm [4] that computes implications between signal values in a boolean network. The research was performed as a masterrsquos thesis [5] at the University of Frankfurt. The recursive algorithm is rather complex for a hardware realization and therefore the FPGA implementation is an interesting example for the potential of reconfigurable computing beyond systolic algorithms. A circuit generator was written that transforms a boolean network into a network of small processing elements and a global control logic which together implement the algorithm. The resulting circuit performs the computation two orders of magnitudes faster than a software implementation run by a conventional workstation.
