Overview
IBM Safer Payments is an innovative real-time payment fraud prevention and detection solution for all cashless payment types. IBM Safer Payments provides not only model capabilities based on inbuilt tools, but also the option to import externally built fraud models for real-time decisioning.
In this course, all of the IBM Safer Payments model capabilities are presented in detail. The following modelling concepts are covered: index, profiling techniques (with and without index sequence), model components comprised of rulesets, PMML, Python and Internal Random Forest, elements of the simulation environment including Rule Generation and Internal Random Forest, as well as the sampling techniques. All these concepts will be followed by the hands-on exercises.

Reviews
Provided good amount of material and a great instructor to teach the material.
This is my second course with ExitCertified. This course exceeded my expectations. The teacher was great and the class was fun.
You get detailed labs to guide you through the technical material giving you a hands on method of learning otherwise difficult material.
Courseware was effective but would like to have some PDF material on BPML and XPATH
Class was easy to sign up for and ExitCertified provided very good communication
