DATA AUGMENTATION IN TRANSACTION CLASSIFICATION USING A NEURAL NETWORK

Systems and methods for data augmentation in a neural network system includes performing a first training process, using a first training dataset on a neural network system including an autoencoder including an encoder and a decoder to generate a trained autoencoder. A trained encoder is configured to receive a first plurality of input data in an N-dimensional data space and generate a first plurality of latent variables in an M-dimensional latent space, wherein M is an integer less than N. A sampling process is performed on the first plurality of latent variables to generate a first plurality of latent variable samples. A trained decoder is used to generate a second training dataset using the first plurality of latent variable samples. The second training dataset is used to train a first classifier including a first classifier neural network model to generate a trained classifier for providing transaction classification.
