I. INTRODUCTION
The financial markets are ever changing due to various factors include economic, political and technological factors.
More so as the advanced financial structures occur, the varying patterns of market behavior require vivid
identification to help in risk control and management. Standard techniques of market segmentation and analysis
become inefficient since the amount of information is great, and the interconnection of the assets exceptional. This
has given rise to the adaptability of AI in monitoring of large financial data stream datasets for detecting of
anomalous activities, and providing enhanced, detailed and efficient monitoring tools.
Computerized anomaly detection methods have become quite effective for managing large financial data in real-
time conditions. The very intelligence of AI solutions is apparent in the ability of the algorithms to detect what the
conventional data sets actually reveal, apart from presumed regularities: The machine recognises that something is
out of the ordinary, that a certain market factor may be poised to become a disruptive force, or that a shift in a
certain economic parameter is imminent. These early warnings enable stakeholders to guard their investments and
avoid high risks by ensuring they have the correct information. In this regard, while making accurate predictions
about the market is one of the uses that AI offers in processing markets data it also extends to the early identification
of the existence of certain features in the market that can easily be missed with other methods. The use of AI to
detect anomaly is described below: Figure 1.
Another method that forms the basis of anomaly detection is the clustering techniques. These methods cluster
similar data values and highlight outliers which do not fit the pattern identified by the Teachers. In financial markets
clustering has the ability to locate unexpected values across price, volume, or relationship between pieces. Such
inconsistencies are times when the market changes and financial institutions are put on notice.
Due to the fact that deep learning entities are widely used for detecting intricate anomalies in voluminous financial
data. They can learn both the hierarchal structure and the relationships between the components in the data and
therefore perfect in identifying gradual shifts in the market. Neural networks also benefit from receiving
unstructured data in its textual form information in the context of financial news and reports, improving the
predictive model. Some of the key anomaly detection algorithm are depicted in the figure 2 below.
This is the case even with all the benefits that AI brings to financial markets as far as the implementation of AI-
based anomaly detection systems is concerned. The biggest concern may be the quality of the data collected for
analysis in the first place. AI models are particularly sensitive to any input data they process in their work. And it is
for this reason, inaccurate or incomplete data results in a situation where machine learning believes some of the
market changes detected do not exist.
Another important issue based on the work of Horn et al (2020) is model interpretability. Several AI techniques,
especially with deep learning methodologies, are cotidered as ‘‘black boxes’’. This is because users cannot decipher
or quickly comprehend the decision-making of the models. This could often be inconvenient when for instance a
financial institution seeks to clarify its actions to a regulator or any other stakeholders. So, creating better models to
be more interpretable or giving explanation to findings based on the use of AIs is still under the research.
Last but not the least; there is always a possibility of having wrong negative and wrong positive results. Although,
AI can improve the measurement of anomalies, there is always the risk of a wrong signal that might indicate a shift
in the market. False positives can cause activities which need not have been performed and false negatives can miss
opportunities, or indeed threats. Two challenges that accompany all AI models are the risks associated with false
negatives and false positives: This can be offset during the model’s design phase by achieving a good middle ground
between sensitivity and specificity.
Anomaly detection in financial datasets has increasing relevance in the modern world owing to increasing concerns
for risk assessment in short and volatile financial environments. ML and AI are used often to identify anomalous
behaviours that may signify fraud, anomalous trading behaviour or shifts in the market. Literature review section of
this paper focuses on how past research approaches and methods can be used to detect anomalies in financial data
and the future direction of the field.
discover. They note that their work focuses on applying modularity to machine learning models used in the analysis
of flaws in structured and unstructured financial data making these algorithms ideal for use in real-time fraud
identification.
Furthermore, Abhisu Jain et al. (2021) presented a similar comparative study of different anomaly detection
approaches relevant to financial data and discussed the merits and demerits of, for instance, decision tree, random
forest, and SVM. They also noted that recent practices by which baseline models are measured have been found to
have a high accuracy and specificity for detecting small market anomalies and that newer techniques, including
neural networks have even better performances than the models like the Support Vector Machine (SVM). This
underlines the need to incorporate more of AI to projects involving analysis of the financial data and detecting
anomalies.
made the Deep learning models very scalable where the same can be applied for various financial instruments and
exchanges. The usefulness of these models lies in their capacity to contribute large historical data sets; thus
enhancing the extent of their precision in detecting risks, useful for the financial institutions with the goal of
managing threats early.
III. METHODOLOGY
This section, provides a, description of the methodological approach used to analyse AI-based anomaly detection in
big financial datasets. Based on the current literature, the research work is informed by the adopted data analytical
methods and machine learning algorithms for identifying anomalies. It also includes primary research incorporating
the use of case studies from sectors of auditing, fraud detection, and market analysis, to conduct a study of the
application of AI in this context. A secondary analysis of the literature involved the integration of article
information, with the purpose of presenting the current state of knowledge regarding imminent trends, issues, and
new techniques in anomaly detection technologies.
The first activity included scoping or gathering articles from peer-reviewed journal articles alongside those found in
popular business reports. Priestr literature, consisting of peerreviewed articles and academic journals, was also
considered with sources such as IEEE Xplore, sciencedirect, and springerlink being used to gather them Scholarly
articles along with papers and case studies from consulting firms such as EY and PwC were considered. For this,
papers with keywords including ‘anomaly detection’, ‘financial data’, ‘machine learning’, ‘AI-based fraud
detection’, ‘deep learning for finance’ were collected. Consequently, this broad scope of literature assured that the
review included technical advances and practical applications.
This led to thematic analysis to group the identified studies into themes such as; machine learning algorithms, time
series analysis, deep learning applications and Artificial Intelligence in financial auditing. Through this thematic
structure, potentially anomalous expansion across dimensions can be systematically investigated according to
approaches to real financial data. An elaborate analysis of each of the themes based on their methodological
strengths and weaknesses, coverage and applicability to the existing financial market trends was also done. For
instance, the results obtained from papers that adopted the commonly used supervised learning methods were
contrasted with papers that used unsupervised or semi-supervised learning methods to draw out the respective
virtues and vices of the entire arsenal.
Last but not least, this research also includes a performance comparison of various anomaly detection methods and
their application in the real-world. The topics explored in case studies were instrumental in establishing
understandings of real-life issues organizations encounter when adopting AI solutions. Challenges including quality
of the input data, the ability to scale the AI models, and issues regarding compliance of the detection systems to
regulatory frameworks were discussed in their relationship with the efficiency of the anomaly detection systems.
Thus, the proposed work is based on the assimilation of both theoretical and practical approaches, which make it
possible to observe the existing state of AI-based anomaly detection in financial data comprehensively.
