Parallel path detection for fraudulent accounts in banks based on graph analysis.

Abstract

This article presents a novel parallel path detection algorithm for identifying suspicious fraudulent accounts in large-scale banking transaction graphs. The proposed algorithm is based on a three-step approach that involves constructing a directed graph, shrinking strongly connected components, and using a parallel depth-first search algorithm to mark potentially fraudulent accounts. The algorithm is designed to fully exploit CPU resources and handle large-scale graphs with exponential growth. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated on various datasets and compared with serial time baselines. The results demonstrate that our approach achieves high performance and scalability on multi-core processors, making it a promising solution for detecting suspicious accounts and preventing money laundering schemes in the banking industry. Overall, our work contributes to the ongoing efforts to combat financial fraud and promote financial stability in the banking sector.
