Towards Improved Illicit Node Detection with Positive-Unlabelled Learning

2023-03-04 · Junliang Luo, Farimah Poursafaei, Xue Liu

Detecting illicit nodes on blockchain networks is a valuable task for strengthening future regulation. Recent machine learning-based methods proposed to tackle the tasks are using some blockchain transaction datasets with a small portion of samples labeled positive and the rest unlabelled (PU). Albeit the assumption that a random sample of unlabeled nodes are normal nodes is used in some works, we discuss that the label mechanism assumption for the hidden positive labels and its effect on the evaluation metrics is worth considering. We further explore that PU classifiers dealing with potential hidden positive labels can have improved performance compared to regular machine learning models. We test the PU classifiers with a list of graph representation learning methods for obtaining different feature distributions for the same data to have more reliable results.
