  • Project description: Developed an SVM model from scratch for classification of fraudulent credit card transactions on a dataset taken from Kaggle.
    • Objective : Training Support Vector Machine for detecting Credit card fraud using given data.
    • Method Used: 200 samples are randomly take from the data file (100 each for positive and negative class) five times.
    • Trained the Model 5 times and obtained respective accuracies using 80% of the data for training and 20% for testing split.
    • Achieved accuracy of 92.5% by formulating an algorithm for convex quadratic optimization problem of dual form of SVM.
    • cvxopt library has been used for finding out the optimum solution for Lagrange Multipliers.
