Solution Overview

Problem

Current fraud prevention systems rely heavily on human intervention and provide reactive responses, failing to effectively prevent or promptly respond to fraudulent activities, leading to increased operational costs, customer dissatisfaction, and loss of trust.

Innovation Solution

A security system utilizing AI models to analyze user data, predict fraud stages, identify fraudulent activities, and generate steps for resolution, thereby automating the detection and response process.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If human intervention is used for fraud detection, then detection accuracy may be maintained, but response time is slow and operational costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefraud detection accuracyVSAvoidresponse time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary fraud risk assessment by analyzing user behavior patterns, device characteristics, and transaction history before the fraudulent activity completes. AI models continuously evaluate risk scores and prepare preventive measures in advance, enabling proactive intervention rather than reactive response after fraud occurs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

An AI-based intermediary system is introduced between the user and the fraud detection process. This intermediary automatically analyzes transaction data, communicates risk assessments, and implements preventive actions without requiring direct human intervention for each case, thereby accelerating response time while maintaining detection accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If more human resources are allocated to fraud prevention, then detection capability improves, but operational costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefraud prevention capabilityVSAvoidoperational costs
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The fraud prevention system performs self-service by automatically monitoring transactions, evaluating risks, and implementing countermeasures without human intervention. The AI models continuously learn from new fraud patterns and self-optimize detection algorithms, eliminating the need for proportional increases in human resources as transaction volumes grow.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

Manual fraud detection processes are replaced with automated AI-based systems that use machine learning models to analyze behavior patterns, device fingerprints, and transaction anomalies. This substitution of mechanical human analysis with computational algorithms significantly reduces operational costs while enhancing detection capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Device complexity

If reactive fraud response systems are used, then implementation is simpler, but fraud losses increase due to delayed response

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem implementation complexityVSAvoidfraud losses
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements preliminary fraud prevention by continuously analyzing user behavior baselines and detecting deviations before fraudulent transactions are completed. Risk scores are calculated in real-time, and preventive measures such as transaction blocking or additional verification are automatically applied, preventing fraud losses rather than responding after the fact.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates real-time feedback loops where AI models continuously learn from detected fraud patterns and adjust detection thresholds dynamically. When fraudulent activities are detected, the system provides immediate feedback by blocking transactions and updating risk models, creating a self-improving prevention mechanism that reduces losses while maintaining manageable complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A device may receive input data identifying input features associated with a user, and may process the input data, with an initial model, to predict one or more fraud stages for the user. The device may identify one or more sets of models from a plurality of models and based on the one or more fraud stages, and may process the input data, with the one or more sets of models, to determine one or more fraud parameters associated with the user. The device may identify a fraudulent activity associated with the user based on the fraud parameters, and may utilize a large language model to generate steps to resolve the fraudulent activity based on historical fraud resolutions. The device may provide the steps to resolve the fraudulent activity to a representative or the user for implementation.
