Abstract

Fraud detection has been a difficult problem in the industry for the past many years which has caused a massive financial loss for individuals/organizations. Machine learning techniques have proved to be an efficient technique to identify and detect fraud. The major problem which exists in this domain is “Concept drift”. Fraudsters tend to evolve their habits over time which eventually leads to a pattern change. Machine learning models normally depend on the reliable set of labels which classifies whether the transaction is fraud or legitimate. When there happens a change in the patterns, the model tends to lose its performance in predicting new patterns. A model which adapt to this changing behaviour is inevitable in such scenarios. In this paper, we have reviewed several articles which discusses the problem of concept drift in fraud detection, and we have also surveyed different types of methods and techniques used so far by the researchers to deal with  it. Above that the paper also proposes a procedure and steps to make a machine learning model adaptive.
