Elliptic announces today the release of the Elliptic Data Set — the world’s largest set of labeled transaction data publicly available in any cryptocurrency — to motivate and enable the development of new techniques for detection of illicit cryptocurrency transactions.
This release coincides with a new paper that Elliptic scientists have co-authored with researchers from the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab. The paper, entitled, “Anti-Money Laundering in Bitcoin: Experiments with Graph Convolutional Networks for Financial Forensics,” will be presented by IBM Research Staff Members Mark Weber and Giacomo Domeniconi at the Anomaly Detection in Finance workshop of the Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining Conference (KDD) on August 5, 2019.
