SOFT SEGMENTATION BASED RULES OPTIMIZATION FOR ZERO DETECTION LOSS FALSE POSITIVE REDUCTION

Abstract:

A system and method includes soft-segment based rules optimization that can mitigate the overall false positives while maintaining 100% true positive detection. The soft clustering allows real-time re-assignment of an account to a dominate archetype behavior, as well as rule optimization based on a logical order with more relaxation on thresholds for the most inefficient rules is performed within each archetype. The rule optimization provides false positive reduction compared to a baseline rule system. The method can be used to reduce false positives for any rule-based detection system in which the same true positive detection is required.
