Word Embeddings instead of One-hots: Using Transformers word embeddings to improve categorical feature encoding in financial fraud data

Detecting financial fraud is complex. One important source of information is textual data, such as the text within reports, descriptions, or comments. Two different words may have similar meanings but vary differently in their characters and length. In this project, we evaluate how the meaning of a word may be used to improve financial fraud […]
