Audit Data Analysis and Application Based on Correlation Analysis Algorithm.

Abstract

Traditional audit data analysis algorithms have many shortcomings, such as the lack of means to mine the hidden audit clues behind the data, the difficulty of finding increasingly hidden cheating techniques caused by the electronic and networked environment, and the inability to solve the quality defects of the audited data. Correlation analysis algorithm in data mining technology is an effective means to obtain knowledge from massive data, which can complete, muffle, clean, and reduce defective data and then can analyze massive data and obtain audit trails under the guidance of expert experience or analysts. Therefore, on the basis of summarizing and analyzing previous research works, this paper expounds the research status and significance of audit data analysis and application; elaborates the development background, current status, and future challenges of correlation analysis algorithm; introduces the methods and principles of data model and its conversion and audit model construction; conducts audit data collection and cleaning; implements audit data preprocessing and its algorithm description; performs audit data analysis based on correlation analysis algorithm; analyzes the hidden node activation value and audit rule extraction in correlation analysis algorithm; proposes the application of audit data based on correlation analysis algorithm; discusses the relationship between audit data quality and audit risk; and finally compares different data mining algorithms in audit data analysis. The findings demonstrate that by analyzing association rules, the correlation analysis algorithm can determine the significance of a huge quantity of audit data and characterise the degree to which linked events would occur concurrently or sequentially in a probabilistic manner. The correlation analysis algorithm first inputs the collected audit data through preprocessing module to filter out useless data and then organizes the obtained data into a format that can be recognized by data mining algorithm and executes the correlation analysis algorithm on the sorted data; finally, the obtained hidden data is divided into normal data and suspicious data by comparing it with the pattern in the rule base. The algorithm can conduct in-depth analysis and research on the company's accounting vouchers, account books, and a large number of financial accounting data and other data of various natures in the company's accounting vouchers; reveal its original characteristics and internal connections; and turn it into an audit. People need more direct and useful information. The study results of this paper provide a reference for further researches on audit data analysis and application based on correlation analysis algorithm.
