Designing data collection forms for unexpected data: The case of Suspicious Activity Reports for financial fraud detection

SARs (Suspicious Activities Reports) are the forms that financial institutions use to report any suspected activity. Literature shows that the user interface will affect the data provided by users, because of many psychological reasons like different biases and cognitive shortcuts. Data collected is typically analyzed with machine learning algorithms. Different user interfaces provide different levels […]
