• Channel: Channel through which the transaction was performed (e.g., Online, ATM, Branch).
• CustomerAge: Age of the account holder, with logical groupings based on occupation.
• CustomerOccupation: Occupation of the account holder (e.g., Doctor, Engineer, Student, Retired), reflecting income patterns.
• TransactionDuration: Duration of the transaction in seconds, varying by transaction type.
• LoginAttempts: Number of login attempts before the transaction, with higher values indicating potential anomalies.

This dataset is ideal for data scientists, financial analysts, and researchers looking to analyze transactional patterns, detect fraud, and build predictive models for financial security applications. The dataset was designed for machine learning and pattern analysis tasks and is not intended as a primary data source for academic publications.

The datasets contains transactions made by credit cards in September 2013 by european cardholders. This dataset present transactions that occurred in two days, where we have 492 frauds out of 284,807 transactions. The dataset is highly unbalanced, the positive class (frauds) account for 0.172% of all transactions.

It contains only numerical input variables which are the result of a PCA transformation. Unfortunately, due to confidentiality issues, we cannot provide the original features and more background information about the data. Features V1, V2, ... V28 are the principal components obtained with PCA, the only features which have not been transformed with PCA are 'Time' and 'Amount'. Feature 'Time' contains the seconds elapsed between each transaction and the first transaction in the dataset. The feature 'Amount' is the transaction Amount, this feature can be used for example-dependant cost-senstive learning. Feature 'Class' is the response variable and it takes value 1 in case of fraud and 0 otherwise.

The dataset has been collected and analysed during a research collaboration of Worldline and the Machine Learning Group (mlg.ulb.ac.be) of ULB (Université Libre de Bruxelles) on big data mining and fraud detection. More details on current and past projects on related topics are available on http://mlg.ulb.ac.be/BruFence and http://mlg.ulb.ac.be/ARTML.

Below is a draft DMP–style description of your credit‐card fraud detection experiment, modeled on the antiquities example:

1. Dataset Description

Research Domain
This work resides in the domain of financial fraud detection and applied machine learning. We focus on detecting anomalous credit‐card transactions in real time to reduce financial losses and improve trust in digital payment systems.

Purpose
The goal is to train and evaluate a binary classification model that flags potentially fraudulent transactions. By publishing both the code and data splits via FAIR repositories, we enable reproducible benchmarking of fraud‐detection algorithms and support future research on anomaly detection in transaction data.

Data Sources
We used the publicly available credit‐card transaction dataset from Kaggle (original source: https://www.kaggle.com/mlg-ulb/creditcardfraud), which contains anonymized transactions made by European cardholders over two days in September 2013. The dataset includes 284 807 transactions, of which 492 are fraudulent.

Method of Dataset Preparation

1. Schema validation: Renamed columns to snake_case (e.g. transaction_amount, is_declined) so they conform to DBRepo’s requirements.

2. Data import: Uploaded the full CSV into DBRepo, assigned persistent identifiers (PIDs).

3. Splitting: Programmatically derived three subsets—training (70%), validation (15%), test (15%)—using range‐based filters on the primary key actionnr. Each subset was materialized in DBRepo and assigned its own PID for precise citation.

4. Cleaning: Converted the categorical flags (is_declined, isforeigntransaction, ishighriskcountry, isfradulent) from “Y”/“N” to 1/0 and dropped non‐feature identifiers (actionnr, merchant_id).

5. Modeling: Trained a RandomForest classifier on the training split, tuned on validation, and evaluated on the held‐out test set.

2. Technical Details

Dataset Structure

• The raw data is a single CSV with columns:

  • actionnr (integer transaction ID)

  • merchant_id (string)

  • average_amount_transaction_day (float)

3. Further Details

Data Limitations

• Highly imbalanced: only ~0.17% of transactions are fraudulent.

• Anonymized PCA features (V1–V28) hidden; we extended with domain features but cannot reverse engineer raw variables.

• Time‐bounded: only covers two days of transactions, may not capture seasonal patterns.

Licensing and Attribution

• Raw data: CC-0 (per Kaggle terms)

• Model artifacts & outputs: CC-BY 4.0

• DUWRD records include ORCID identifiers for the author.

Recommended Uses

• Benchmarking new fraud‐detection algorithms on a standard imbalanced dataset.

• Educational purposes: demonstrating model‐training pipelines, FAIR data practices.

• Extension: adding time‐series or deep‐learning models.

Known Issues

• Possible temporal leakage if date/time features not handled correctly.

• Model performance may degrade on live data due to concept drift.

• Binary flags may oversimplify nuanced transaction outcomes.

The FiFAR dataset, is comprised of 30K bank account opening application instances, accompanied by the judgments of a team of 50 synthetic fraud analysts with realistic decision-making properties on whether or not each instance is a fraudulent application. Each instance contains information regarding the bank account opening application and the applicant, as well as the ground truth label: 0 - legitimate, 1 - fraudulent. Furthermore, each instance contains the prediction of each of the 50 experts, following the same convention as the label. We provide every expert’s prediction for every 30K instances in the Bank Account Fraud dataset (https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/sgpjesus/bank-account-fraud-dataset-neurips-2022/versions/1?select=Base.csv) deemed fraudulent by a fraud detection model, thus simulating an “alert-review” scenario, where experts are tasked with reviewing high-risk bank account opening applications.

Credit Card Fraud Detection Dataset (European Cardholders, September 2013)

As a data contributor, I'm sharing this crucial dataset focused on the detection of fraudulent credit card transactions. Recognizing these illicit activities is paramount for protecting customers and the integrity of financial systems.

About the Dataset:

This dataset encompasses credit card transactions made by European cardholders during a two-day period in September 2013. It presents a real-world scenario with a significant class imbalance, where fraudulent transactions are considerably less frequent than legitimate ones. Out of a total of 284,807 transactions, only 492 are instances of fraud, representing a mere 0.172% of the entire dataset.

Content of the Data:

Due to confidentiality concerns, the majority of the input features in this dataset have undergone a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) transformation. This means the original meaning and context of features V1, V2, ..., V28 are not directly provided. However, these principal components capture the variance in the underlying transaction data.

The only features that have not been transformed by PCA are:

• Time: Numerical. Represents the number of seconds elapsed between each transaction and the very first transaction recorded in the dataset.
• Amount: Numerical. The transaction amount in Euros (€). This feature could be valuable for cost-sensitive learning approaches.

The target variable for this classification task is:

• Class: Integer. Takes the value 1 in the case of a fraudulent transaction and 0 otherwise.

Important Note on Evaluation:

Given the substantial class imbalance (far more legitimate transactions than fraudulent ones), traditional accuracy metrics based on the confusion matrix can be misleading. It is strongly recommended to evaluate models using the Area Under the Precision-Recall Curve (AUPRC), as this metric is more sensitive to the performance on the minority class (fraudulent transactions).

How to Use This Dataset:

1. Download the dataset file (likely in CSV format).
2. Load the data using libraries like Pandas.
3. Understand the class imbalance: Be aware that fraudulent transactions are rare.
4. Explore the features: Analyze the distributions of 'Time', 'Amount', and the PCA-transformed features (V1-V28).
5. Address the class imbalance: Consider using techniques like oversampling the minority class, undersampling the majority class, or using specialized algorithms designed for imbalanced datasets.
6. Build and train binary classification models to predict the 'Class' variable.
7. Evaluate your models using AUPRC to get a meaningful assessment of performance in detecting fraud.
