Instance-dependent cost-sensitive learning for detecting transfer fraud

Sebastiaan Hoppner et al.

Summary: Credit card transaction fraud is a global issue, and financial institutions are increasingly relying on data-driven methods to develop fraud detection systems for detecting and preventing fraudulent transactions. The article introduces two novel classifiers that minimize the instance-dependent cost measure when learning a classification model, highlighting the potential to reduce fraud losses.

Targeting customers under response-dependent costs

Johannes Haupt et al.

Summary: This study conducts a formal analysis of the customer targeting problem, particularly when the cost of marketing actions depends on customer response. By proposing a framework to estimate decision variables for campaign profit optimization, it is shown that considering treatment costs can significantly increase campaign profit, especially when used in combination with estimates of average or customer-level treatment effects.

Why you should stop predicting customer churn and start using uplift models

Floris Devriendt et al.

Summary: Uplift modeling has gained attention in predictive analytics, with the introduction of a new evaluation metric called the maximum profit uplift that helps assess the potential profit of uplift models. This measure allows for comparison of customer churn prediction models and uplift models, and has been applied in a case study in the financial industry.

A general framework for causal classification

Jiuyong Li et al.

Summary: This paper discusses how to use causal classification methods to address personalized decision-making problems and proposes a general framework for it. The experiments demonstrate that this framework is effective for causal classification and uplift (causal heterogeneity) modeling, and competitive with other methods in the field.
