| | ABOUT THE TALK This thesis presents a comprehensive framework for early detection of malicious activities in the Bitcoin network by analyzing four key properties: decentralization, fluidity, connectivity, and regularity. A 15-year transaction dataset is used to explore asset control distribution and dynamic transaction behaviors. The proposed Evolve Path Tracer leverages asset transfer paths and graph neural networks to detect fraud in fast-evolving, sparse networks. Enhancing this, the Intention Monitor introduces interpretability and intent prediction through behavioral analysis. Together, these models address limitations in current methods by offering scalable, interpretable, and proactive fraud detection to safeguard cryptocurrency ecosystems. | | | SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY CHENG Ling is a Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science at the SMU SCIS, supervised by Prof. Feida ZHU. His research interests are Early Anomaly Detection and Community Detection in Cryptocurrency. |
