Wizard Driven AI Anomaly Detection with Databricks in AzureDatabricks
Fraud is prevalent in every industry, and growing at an increasing rate, as the volume of transactions increases with automation. The National Healthcare Anti-Fraud Association estimates $350B of fraudulent spending. Forbes estimates $25B spending by US banks on anti-money laundering compliance. At the same time as fraud and anomaly detection use cases are booming, the skills gap of expert data scientists available to perform fraud detection is widening.
The Kavi Global team will present a cloud native, wizard-driven AI anomaly detection solution, enabling Citizen Data Scientists to easily create anomaly detection models to automatically flag Collective, Contextual, and Point anomalies, at the transaction level, as well as collusion between actors. Unsupervised methods (Distribution, Clustering, Association, Sequencing, Historical Occurrence, Custom Rules) and supervised (Random Forest, Neural Network) models are executed in Apache Spark on Databricks.
An innovative aggregation framework converts probabilistic fraud scores and their probabilities into a meaningful and actionable prioritized list of suspicious (a statistical outlier) and potentially fraudulent transaction to be investigated from a business point of view. The AI Anomaly Detection models improve over time using Human-in-the-Loop feedback methods to label data for supervised modeling.
Finally, The Kavi team overviews the Anomaly Lifecycle: from statistical outlier to validated business fraud for reclaim and business process changes to long term prevention strategies using proactive audits upstream at the time of estimate to prevent revenue leakage. Two client success stories will be presented acros Pharmaceutical Rx and Transportation industries.
Merchant Churn Prediction Using SparkML at PayPal with Chetan Nadgire and Ani...Databricks
In this session, PayPal will present the techniques used to retain merchants using some of the Machine Learning models using SparkML platform. Retaining merchants directly equates to Dollar value. So, it was very critical for us to identify the right model that trains on our data and predicts merchant behavior giving us insights that help us prevent merchant churn. We will also deep dive on how we captured the right signals filtering the noise that could skew the predictions and some of the challenges we faced in scaling this solution. Lastly, we will see how SparkML orchestrated various events in the pipeline we built thereby enabling us to perform feature engineering, train it, validate and cross-validate it at scale across the different data samples we had.
ChakraView – A 360° Approach to Data QualityDatabricks
Availability of high-quality data is central to success of any organization in the current era. As every organization ramps up its collection and storage of data, its usefulness largely depends on the confidence of its quality. In the Financial Data Engineering team at Flipkart, where the bar for the data quality is 100% correctness and completeness, this problem takes on a wholly different dimension. Currently, countless number of data analysts and engineers try to find various issues in the financial data to keep it that way. We wanted to find a way that is less manual, more scalable and cost-effective.
As we evaluated various solutions available in the public domain, we found quite a few gaps.
Most frameworks are limited in the kind of issues they detect. While many detect the internal consistency issues at schema level and dataset level, there are none that detect consistency issues across datasets and check for completeness.
No common framework for Data cleaning and repairing once an issue has been found.
Fixing data quality issues require the right categorization of the issues to drive accountability with the producer systems. There are very few frameworks that support categorisation of issues and visibility to the producers.
In this presentation, we discuss how we developed a comprehensive data quality framework. Our framework has also been developed with the assumption that the people interested in and involved in fixing these issues are not necessarily data engineers. Our framework has been developed to be largely config driven with pluggable logic for categorisation and cleaning. We will then talk about how it helped achieve scale in fixing the data quality issues and helped reduce many of the repeated issues.

Quick iteration and reusability of metric calculations for powerful data exploration.
At Looker, we want to make it easier for data analysts to service the needs of the data-hungry users in their organizations. We believe too much of their time is spent responding to ad hoc data requests and not enough time is spent building, experimenting, and embellishing a robust model of the business. Worse yet, business users are starving for data, but are forced to make important decisions without access to data that could guide them in the right direction. Looker addresses both of these problems with a YAML-based modeling language called LookML.
This paper walks through a number of data modeling examples, demonstrating how to use LookML to generate, alter, and update reports—without the need to rewrite any SQL. With LookML, you build your business logic, defining your important metrics once and then reusing them throughout a model—allowing quick, rapid iteration of data exploration, while also ensuring the accuracy of the SQL that’s generated. Small updates are quick and can be made immediately available to business users to manipulate, iterate, and transform in any way they see fit.

Title
DataOps, the secret weapon for delivering AI, data science, and business intelligence value at speed.
Synopsis
● According to recent research, just 7.3% of organisations say the state of their data and analytics is excellent, and only 22% of companies are currently seeing a significant return from data science expenditure.
● Poor returns on data & analytics investment are often the result of applying 20th-century thinking to 21st-century challenges and opportunities.
● Modern data science and analytics require secure, efficient processes to turn raw data from multiple sources and in numerous formats into useful inputs to a data product.
● Developing, orchestrating and iterating modern data pipelines is an extremely complex process requiring multiple technologies and skills.
● Other domains have to successfully overcome the challenge of delivering high-quality products at speed in complex environments. DataOps applies proven agile principles, lean thinking and DevOps practices to the development of data products.
● A DataOps approach aligns data producers, analytical data consumers, processes and technology with the rest of the organisation and its goals.

Gain New Insights by Analyzing Machine Logs using Machine Data Analytics and BigInsights.
Half of Fortune 500 companies experience more than 80 hours of system down time annually. Spread evenly over a year, that amounts to approximately 13 minutes every day. As a consumer, the thought of online bank operations being inaccessible so frequently is disturbing. As a business owner, when systems go down, all processes come to a stop. Work in progress is destroyed and failure to meet SLA’s and contractual obligations can result in expensive fees, adverse publicity, and loss of current and potential future customers. Ultimately the inability to provide a reliable and stable system results in loss of $$$’s. While the failure of these systems is inevitable, the ability to timely predict failures and intercept them before they occur is now a requirement.
A possible solution to the problem can be found is in the huge volumes of diagnostic big data generated at hardware, firmware, middleware, application, storage and management layers indicating failures or errors. Machine analysis and understanding of this data is becoming an important part of debugging, performance analysis, root cause analysis and business analysis. In addition to preventing outages, machine data analysis can also provide insights for fraud detection, customer retention and other important use cases.

The traditional approach to insurance pricing involves fitting a generalized linear model (GLM) to data collected on historical claims payments and premiums received. The explosive growth in data availability and increasing competitiveness in the marketplace are challenging actuaries to find new insights in their data and make predictions with more granularity, improved speed and efficiency, and with tighter integration among business units to support strategic decisions.
In this session we will share our experience implementing deep hierarchical neural networks using TensorFlow and PySpark on Databricks. We will discuss the benefits of the ML Runtime, our experience using the goofys mount, our process for hyperparameter tuning, specific considerations for the large dataset size and extreme volatility present in insurance data, among other topics.

Influence of Career Development on Retention of Employees in Private Univers...publication11
Retention of employees in universities is paramount for producing quantity and quality of human capital for
economic development of a country. Turnover has persistently remained high in private universities despite
employee attrition by institutions, which can disrupt organizational stability, quality of education and reputation.
Objectives of the study included performance appraisal, staff training and promotion practices on retention of
employees. Correlational research design and quantitative research were adopted. Total population was 85 with a
sample of 70 which was selected through simple random sampling. Data collection was through questionnaire and
analysed using multiple linear regression with help of SPSS. Results showed that both performance appraisal
(t=1.813, P=.076, P>.05) and staff training practices (t=-1.887, P=.065, P>.05) were statistical insignificant while
promotion practices (t=3.804, P=.000, P<.05) was statistically significantly influenced retention of employees.
The study concluded that performance appraisal and staff training has little relationship with employee retention
whereas promotion practices affect employee retention in private universities. Therefore, it was recommended
that organizations renovate performance appraisal and staff training practices while promoting employees
annually, review salary structure, ensure there is no biasness and promotion practices should be based on meritocracy. The findings could benefit management of private universities, Government and researchers.
