A Detailed Investigation into the Role of Deep Learning in Enhancing Fraud Detection Accuracy and Efficiency

Abstract

Fraud detection plays a vital role in safeguarding businesses and organizations from financial losses and preserving operational integrity. Conventional methods, often dependent on rule-based approaches and manual analysis, are not only time-intensive and resource-heavy but also susceptible to errors. The emergence of deep learning has revolutionized fraud detection, delivering substantial improvements in accuracy and efficiency. This study conducts an in-depth analysis of how deep learning enhances fraud detection by exploring advanced architectures, training methodologies, and evaluation metrics. The research provides a thorough examination of both the advantages and limitations of applying deep learning in fraud detection, offering valuable insights for developing robust and efficient systems. These findings support organizations in proactively addressing fraudulent activities with greater precision and effectiveness.
