Detecting insurance claims fraud using machine learning techniques

The insurance industries consist of more than thousand companies in worldwide. And collect more than one trillions of dollars premiums in each year. When a person or entity make false insurance claims in order to obtain compensation or benefits to which they are not entitled is known as an insurance fraud.
