Credit Card Fraud Detection using OCR & Autoencoders in Keras.

In today’s world the credit card frauds are very vulnerable to each one of us. In a day all around the world millions of transactions get carried out. It is very much possible that the person doesn’t carry out the transaction still the credit is done from his/her account.

There are many ways to detect whether the transaction is a fraud or not.

In our project we detect the transaction on basis of behavior of the transaction.

The detection of fraud transactions can be used by banking companies and other Money transaction applications to inform their customers if a fraud transaction occurs and strict measures can be then taken.

It can be also considered as a safety measure taken to avoid fraud transaction.

If a fraud transaction occurs the company can immediately inform its customers and verify with them.

We are basically going to use 2 different models to optimize our output thereby maintaining our accuracy high.

**Architecture **of our System.


OUTLINE

Module 1:

OCR- a font, a font created specifically to aid Optical Character Recognition algorithms. We’ll then devise a computer vision and image processing algorithm that can localize the four groupings of four digits on a credit card, Extract each of these four groupings followed by segmenting each of the sixteen numbers individually, Recognize each of the sixteen credit card digits by using template matching and the OCR- a font.

So this is how Module 1 works:

1. Takes a reference image and extracts the digits.

2. Stores the digit templates in a dictionary.

3. Localizes the four credit card number groups, each holding four digits (for a total of 16 digits).

4. Extracts the digits to be “matched”.

5. Performs template matching on each digit, comparing each individual ROI to each of the digit templates 0–9, whilst storing a score for each attempted match.

6. Finds the highest score for each candidate digit, and builds a list called output which contains the credit card number.

7. Outputs the credit card number and credit card type to our terminal and displays the output image to our screen with database details .

8. Comparing with Luhn algorithm it tells whether it is valid or invalid card.

Pdf2gerb: Perl Script Converts PDF Files to Gerber format

pdf2gerb

Perl script converts PDF files to Gerber format

Pdf2Gerb generates Gerber 274X photoplotting and Excellon drill files from PDFs of a PCB. Up to three PDFs are used: the top copper layer, the bottom copper layer (for 2-sided PCBs), and an optional silk screen layer. The PDFs can be created directly from any PDF drawing software, or a PDF print driver can be used to capture the Print output if the drawing software does not directly support output to PDF.

The general workflow is as follows:

  1. Design the PCB using your favorite CAD or drawing software.
  2. Print the top and bottom copper and top silk screen layers to a PDF file.
  3. Run Pdf2Gerb on the PDFs to create Gerber and Excellon files.
  4. Use a Gerber viewer to double-check the output against the original PCB design.
  5. Make adjustments as needed.
  6. Submit the files to a PCB manufacturer.

Please note that Pdf2Gerb does NOT perform DRC (Design Rule Checks), as these will vary according to individual PCB manufacturer conventions and capabilities. Also note that Pdf2Gerb is not perfect, so the output files must always be checked before submitting them. As of version 1.6, Pdf2Gerb supports most PCB elements, such as round and square pads, round holes, traces, SMD pads, ground planes, no-fill areas, and panelization. However, because it interprets the graphical output of a Print function, there are limitations in what it can recognize (or there may be bugs).

See docs/Pdf2Gerb.pdf for install/setup, config, usage, and other info.

Credit card fraud and technical solutions

Credit card fraud is an increasingly expensive problem. Technology offers solutions to help combat the problem and gain control.
How to prevent fraudulent transactions in credit cards is a common question plaguing the credit card user today. The credit card brings convenience and security to the users, but the same can become a cause of agony if the user is a victim of any credit card fraud. Smart systems are coming to the aid of credit card users and empowering them against cybercriminals. Using fraud detection tools and following some simple precautions, the users can protect themselves against credit card fraud.

How to Making A Simple Credit Card Validation form

In this quick tutorial we will show you how to create a simple credit card form. We'll build the whole thing from scratch, with a little help from Bootstrap 3 for the interface, and Payform.js for client-side form validation.

Project Overview

Here is a sneak-peak of what we will be building in this tutorial:

credit-card-form.png

Credit Card Form Demo

You can get the full code for this project from the Download button near the top of the article. An overview of the files can be seen below:

project-overview.png

There are two .css files and two .js files which we will need to include in our HTML. All other resources such as the Bootstrap framework, jQuery, and web fonts will be included externally via CDN.

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/styles.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/demo.css">
</head>

<body>

    <!-- The HTML for our form will go here -->

    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="assets/js/jquery.payform.min.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
    <script src="assets/js/script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Now that everything is set up, we can start building our credit card form. Let's start with the HTML layout!

Layout

A credit card dialog needs to be simple, short, and straightforward. Here are the four input fields that every credit card form needs to have:

  • Credit card owner name
  • Card number
  • Secret code (also known as CVV/CVC/CID)
  • Expiration Date

All we need to do is create a <form> and add all the required input fields. For the owner, card number, and CVV we will use simple text fields. For the expiration date we'll put a combination of two selects with predefined options.

Besides that our form will have a heading, a submit button, and images for popular credit card vendors. Since we are working with Bootstrap there is a little extra markup, but it helps keep the code organized and the layout responsive.

<div class="creditCardForm">
    <div class="heading">
        <h1>Confirm Purchase</h1>
    </div>
    <div class="payment">
        <form>
            <div class="form-group owner">
                <label for="owner">Owner</label>
                <input type="text" class="form-control" id="owner">
            </div>
            <div class="form-group CVV">
                <label for="cvv">CVV</label>
                <input type="text" class="form-control" id="cvv">
            </div>
            <div class="form-group" id="card-number-field">
                <label for="cardNumber">Card Number</label>
                <input type="text" class="form-control" id="cardNumber">
            </div>
            <div class="form-group" id="expiration-date">
                <label>Expiration Date</label>
                <select>
                    <option value="01">January</option>
                    <option value="02">February </option>
                    <option value="03">March</option>
                    <option value="04">April</option>
                    <option value="05">May</option>
                    <option value="06">June</option>
                    <option value="07">July</option>
                    <option value="08">August</option>
                    <option value="09">September</option>
                    <option value="10">October</option>
                    <option value="11">November</option>
                    <option value="12">December</option>
                </select>
                <select>
                    <option value="16"> 2016</option>
                    <option value="17"> 2017</option>
                    <option value="18"> 2018</option>
                    <option value="19"> 2019</option>
                    <option value="20"> 2020</option>
                    <option value="21"> 2021</option>
                </select>
            </div>
            <div class="form-group" id="credit_cards">
                <img src="assets/images/visa.jpg" id="visa">
                <img src="assets/images/mastercard.jpg" id="mastercard">
                <img src="assets/images/amex.jpg" id="amex">
            </div>
            <div class="form-group" id="pay-now">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default" id="confirm-purchase">Confirm</button>
            </div>
        </form>
    </div>
</div>

Now that we have the needed input fields, we can setup the validation rules.

Validation

All of the validation we will show here is client side and done exclusively in the JavaScript. If it is HTML validation that you are interested in, check out this article.

To kick things off we will define all the jQuery selectors we will need:

var owner = $('#owner'),
    cardNumber = $('#cardNumber'),
    cardNumberField = $('#card-number-field'),
    CVV = $("#cvv"),
    mastercard = $("#mastercard"),
    confirmButton = $('#confirm-purchase'),
    visa = $("#visa"),
    amex = $("#amex");

Then, using Payform.js, we will turn our basic input fields into specialized input for credit card data. We simply need to call the right function and the library will automatically handle text formatting and maximum string length for us:

cardNumber.payform('formatCardNumber'); CVV.payform('formatCardCVC');

Next, we want to be able to give real-time feedback to users while they are typing in their card number. To do so we will write a simple function that does two things:

  1. Check if the current text in the field is а valid card number or not. Add appropriate coloring to the text field.
  2. Depending on the present input characters, see if the card is either Visa, MasterCard, or American Express. This is done using the payform.parseCardType() method.

Since we want to execute the above actions every time a new character is typed in, we will use the jQuery keyup() event listener.

cardNumber.keyup(function() {
    amex.removeClass('transparent');
    visa.removeClass('transparent');
    mastercard.removeClass('transparent');

    if ($.payform.validateCardNumber(cardNumber.val()) == false) {
        cardNumberField.removeClass('has-success');
        cardNumberField.addClass('has-error');
    } else {
        cardNumberField.removeClass('has-error');
        cardNumberField.addClass('has-success');
    }

    if ($.payform.parseCardType(cardNumber.val()) == 'visa') {
        mastercard.addClass('transparent');
        amex.addClass('transparent');
    } else if ($.payform.parseCardType(cardNumber.val()) == 'amex') {
        mastercard.addClass('transparent');
        visa.addClass('transparent');
    } else if ($.payform.parseCardType(cardNumber.val()) == 'mastercard') {
        amex.addClass('transparent');
        visa.addClass('transparent');
    }
});

There is one more thing we have to do and that is is check if all the field are holding valid data when the user tries to submit the form.

Name validation can be quite tricky. To keep this tutorial light, we won't be going into that subject, and we will only check if the input name is at least 5 characters long. Payform provides us with the needed methods for validating the rest of the form.

confirmButton.click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();

    var isCardValid = $.payform.validateCardNumber(cardNumber.val());
    var isCvvValid = $.payform.validateCardCVC(CVV.val());

    if(owner.val().length < 5){
        alert("Wrong owner name");
    } else if (!isCardValid) {
        alert("Wrong card number");
    } else if (!isCvvValid) {
        alert("Wrong CVV");
    } else {
        // Everything is correct. Add your form submission code here.
        alert("Everything is correct");
    }
});

The above validation is for educational purposes only and shouldn't be used on commercial projects. Always include both client-side and server-side validation to your forms, especially when working with credit card data.

Styles

We are using Bootstrap, so most of the styling is done by the framework. Our CSS mostly covers the size of the input fields and various padding, margin and font tweaks.

styles.css

.creditCardForm {
    max-width: 700px;
    background-color: #fff;
    margin: 100px auto;

        width: 100%;
    }
    .creditCardForm #credit_cards {
        text-align: left;
    }
}

With this our Credit Card Validation Form is complete!

Credit Card Fraud Detection with Python & Machine Learning

For any bank or financial organization, credit card fraud detection is of utmost importance. We have to spot potential fraud so that consumers can not bill for goods that they haven’t purchased. The aim is, therefore, to create a classifier that indicates whether a requested transaction is a fraud.

About Credit Card Fraud Detection

In this machine learning project, we solve the problem of detecting credit card fraud transactions using machine numpy, scikit learn, and few other python libraries. We overcome the problem by creating a binary classifier and experimenting with various machine learning techniques to see which fits better.

Credit Card Fraud Dataset

The dataset consists of 31 parameters. Due to confidentiality issues, 28 of the features are the result of the PCA transformation. “Time’ and “Amount” are the only aspects that were not modified with PCA.

There are a total of 284,807 transactions with only 492 of them being fraud. So, the label distribution suffers from imbalance issues.

Steps to Develop Credit Card Fraud Classifier in Machine Learning

Our approach to building the classifier is discussed in the steps:

  1. Perform Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) on our dataset
  2. Apply different Machine Learning algorithms to our dataset
  3. Train and Evaluate our models on the dataset and pick the best one.
Step 1. Perform Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)

There are a total of 284,807 transactions with only 492 of them being fraud. Let’s import the necessary modules, load our dataset, and perform EDA on our dataset. Here is a peek at our dataset:

import pandas as pdfrom collections import Counterimport itertools ## Load the csv file dataframe = pd.read_csv ( “./Desktop/DataFlair/credit_card_fraud_detection/creditcard.csv” ) dataframe.head ()
