Data-Centric Generative and Adaptive Detection Framework for Abnormal Transaction Prediction

Anomalous transaction behaviors in cryptocurrency markets exhibit high concealment, substantial diversity, and strong cross-modal coupling, making traditional rule-based or single-feature analytical methods insufficient for reliable detection in real-world environments. To address the research focus, a data-centric multimodal anomaly detection framework integrating generative augmentation, latent distribution modeling, and dual-branch real-time detection is proposed. The method employs a generative adversarial network with feature-consistency constraints to mitigate the scarcity of fraudulent samples, and adopts a multi-domain variational modeling strategy to learn the latent distribution of normal behaviors, enabling stable anomaly scoring. By combining the long-range temporal modeling capability of Transformer architectures with the sensitivity of online clustering to local structural deviations, the system dynamically integrates global and local information through an adaptive risk fusion mechanism, thereby enhancing robustness and real-time detection capability. Experimental results demonstrate that the generative augmentation module yields substantial improvements, increasing the recall from 0.421 to 0.671 and the F1-score to 0.692. In anomaly distribution modeling, the multi-domain VAE achieves an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.854 and an F1-score of 0.660, significantly outperforming traditional One-Class SVM and autoencoder baselines. Multimodal fusion experiments further verify the complementarity of the dual-branch detection structure, with the adaptive fusion model achieving an AUC of 0.884, an F1-score of 0.713, and reducing the false positive rate to 0.087. Ablation studies show that the complete model surpasses any individual module in terms of precision, recall, and F1-score, confirming the synergistic benefits of its integrated components. Overall, the proposed framework achieves high accuracy and high recall in data-scarce, structurally complex, and latency-sensitive cryptocurrency scenarios, providing a scalable and efficient solution for deploying data-centric artificial intelligence in financial security applications.

Abstract

Anomalous transaction behaviors in cryptocurrency markets exhibit high concealment, substantial diversity, and strong cross-modal coupling, making traditional rule-based or single-feature analytical methods insufficient for reliable detection in real-world environments. To address the research focus, a data-centric multimodal anomaly detection framework integrating generative augmentation, latent distribution modeling, and dual-branch real-time detection is proposed. The method employs a generative adversarial network with feature-consistency constraints to mitigate the scarcity of fraudulent samples, and adopts a multi-domain variational modeling strategy to learn the latent distribution of normal behaviors, enabling stable anomaly scoring. By combining the long-range temporal modeling capability of Transformer architectures with the sensitivity of online clustering to local structural deviations, the system dynamically integrates global and local information through an adaptive risk fusion mechanism, thereby enhancing robustness and real-time detection capability. Experimental results demonstrate that the generative augmentation module yields substantial improvements, increasing the recall from 0.421 to 0.671 and the F1-score to 0.692. In anomaly distribution modeling, the multi-domain VAE achieves an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.854 and an F1-score of 0.660, significantly outperforming traditional One-Class SVM and autoencoder baselines. Multimodal fusion experiments further verify the complementarity of the dual-branch detection structure, with the adaptive fusion model achieving an AUC of 0.884, an F1-score of 0.713, and reducing the false positive rate to 0.087. Ablation studies show that the complete model surpasses any individual module in terms of precision, recall, and F1-score, confirming the synergistic benefits of its integrated components. Overall, the proposed framework achieves high accuracy and high recall in data-scarce, structurally complex, and latency-sensitive cryptocurrency scenarios, providing a scalable and efficient solution for deploying data-centric artificial intelligence in financial security applications.
