Abstract

Pure machine learning classification approaches can result in a “black box” solution where it is impossible to understand why a classifier reached a decision. This disclosure describes generating new classification rules leveraging machine learning techniques. New rules may have to meet evaluation criteria. Legibility of those rules can be improved for understanding. A machine learning classifier can be created that is used to identify possible candidate classification rules (e.g. from a group of decision trees such as a random forest classifier). Classification rules generated with the assistance of machine learning may allow for identification of transaction fraud or other classifications that a human analyst would be unable to identify. A selection process can identify which possible candidate rules are effective. The legibility of those rules can then be improved so that they can be more easily understood by humans.
