A Deep Graph-based Toolbox for Fraud Detection

Introduction

May 2021 Update: The DGFraud has upgraded to TensorFlow 2.0! Please check out DGFraud-TF2

DGFraud is a Graph Neural Network (GNN) based toolbox for fraud detection. It integrates the implementation & comparison of state-of-the-art GNN-based fraud detection models. The introduction of implemented models can be found here.

We welcome contributions on adding new fraud detectors and extending the features of the toolbox. Some of the planned features are listed in TODO list.

If you use the toolbox in your project, please cite one of the two papers below and the algorithms you used :

Datasets

DBLP

We uses the pre-processed DBLP dataset from Jhy1993/HAN You can run the FdGars, Player2Vec, GeniePath and GEM based on the DBLP dataset. Unzip the archive before using the dataset:

cd dataset
unzip DBLP4057_GAT_with_idx_tra200_val_800.zip

Example dataset

We implement example graphs for SemiGNN, GAS and GEM in data_loader.py. Because those models require unique graph structures or node types, which cannot be found in opensource datasets.

Yelp dataset

For GraphConsis, we preprocessed Yelp Spam Review Dataset with reviews as nodes and three relations as edges.

The dataset with .mat format is located at /dataset/YelpChi.zip. The .mat file includes:

  • net_rur, net_rtr, net_rsr: three sparse matrices representing three homo-graphs defined in GraphConsis paper;
  • features: a sparse matrix of 32-dimension handcrafted features;
  • label: a numpy array with the ground truth of nodes. 1 represents spam and 0 represents benign.

The YelpChi data preprocessing details can be found in our CIKM'20 paper. To get the complete metadata of the Yelp dataset, please email to [email protected] for inquiry.

User Guide

Running the example code

You can find the implemented models in algorithms directory. For example, you can run Player2Vec using:

python Player2Vec_main.py 

You can specify parameters for models when running the code.

Running on your datasets

Have a look at the load_data_dblp() function in utils/utils.py for an example.

In order to use your own data, you have to provide:

  • adjacency matrices or adjlists (for GAS);
  • a feature matrix
  • a label matrix then split feature matrix and label matrix into testing data and training data.

You can specify a dataset as follows:

python xx_main.py --dataset your_dataset 

or by editing xx_main.py

The structure of code

The repository is organized as follows:

  • algorithms/ contains the implemented models and the corresponding example code;
  • base_models/ contains the basic models (GCN);
  • dataset/ contains the necessary dataset files;
  • utils/ contains:
    • loading and splitting the data (data_loader.py);
    • contains various utilities (utils.py).
