Abstract
Anomaly detection is becoming increasingly more important in sectors like banking, medicine, computer networks and many more. The volume of online transactions is increasing exponentially, and credit card online transactions represent the maximum share. Therefore, financial organizations are increasingly focused on applications for real-time, online fraud detection. In the case of real-time data, outlier detection is considered challenging. In this dissertation, a novel technique combining anomaly detection of streaming data in batches and the implementation of a RTDW (Real Time Data warehouse) for high-volume online processing system has been proposed. Well-known anomaly detection algorithms such as Isolation Forest, LOF and OCSVM have been implemented and compared based on AUROC accuracy scores. The RTDW has been implemented on Oracle 11g. Oracle GoldenGate is configured to bring latency down to 0.4 seconds. Isolation Forest detects the maximum anomalous behaviour on the real time dataset achieving the best accuracy score of 0.8022.
