Credit Card Fraud Detection System

Deep learning-based fraud detection system for identifying suspicious online credit card transactions in real time.

---

Overview

The Credit Card Fraud Detection System is a web-based machine learning application designed to analyze online financial transactions and detect potentially fraudulent activities.

Built with Streamlit, TensorFlow, and Python, the system leverages an Autoencoder deep learning model trained on large-scale transaction data to identify abnormal transaction behavior patterns.

The platform provides:

• Real-time fraud prediction
• Transaction data analysis
• Interactive visualizations
• User-friendly fraud detection interface
