Client Use Cases
Advertisement use cases
Fraud detection on digital ads
Problem:
Digital ads are the type of ads you see on websites. They might be in the form of a text, video, image or just a link. Each time a user clicks on an ad or views an ad, the announcer has to pay the publisher a fee.
Fraud in this area is common. In fact, the presence of bots simulating clicks and views have exploded in recent years. This not only distorts the statistics of clicks and visits to the site but also costs a lot of money for virtual visitors that don’t exist.
Solution:
Upalgo Anomaly Detection algorithms will detect the clicks simulated by bots. Upalgo Anomaly Detection will model normal user behaviour through data (IP address, geolocation, mouse movements, time spent on a page, scroll down speed, number of pages on the website, entry page, etc..) and detect abnormal activities.
Benefits:
- money savings
- pay for real users not fake ones
- find unserious marketing partners and agencies

Anomaly detection on marketing performances
Problem:
To be efficient and competitive, marketers must run effective advertising campaigns that are well-integrated to their target markets. Up and downs should be monitored to react effectively. However, with the increasing number of marketing channels and verticals, it can be very hard for a team of marketers to monitor everything efficiently.
Solution :
Upalgo can help marketing teams to automatically alert on unseen marketing dips and rises. Upalgo learns a company’s typical behaviour to alert teams of suspicious and radical changes in data. The teams can then take action sooner than later while focusing their effort on high ROI tasks in the meanwhile.
The data analysis can be based on data coming from pay-per-click, website traffic and customer behaviour.
Benefits :
- better ROI
- operate things more easily and efficiently.
- better client satisfaction
- optimization of the campaigns ( discovering new opportunities)
- understand marketing trends.

Glitch detection during engine testing
Problem:
During the testing of new engine prototypes, tens and hundreds of sensors send data through the network for collection and storage. Some of these sensors are high-frequency (50 kHz) wireless sensors. Sometimes they can get desynchronized or disconnected. Due to this, the collected data can contain glitches. These glitches in data can lead to errors in the phases of post-treatment operations.

Agriculture use cases
Cow monitoring
Problem:
Cow herds require a lot of care and time. Farmers need to make sure the cows are healthy. They also would like to know the right time for breeding to be more productive. Such work can be time-consuming and expensive. If the farmer does not detect injuries or the poor health of a cow, it can have serious consequences.
Solution:
With a connected collar mounted around the neck of the cows, a 3-axis accelerometer collects data. This data is analyzed by Upalgo Anomaly Detection and Pattern Recognition algorithms. We can then detect if a cow is injured. The anomalies detected can be sent as an alert to the farmer, who in return will act on the health issues or organize the future breeding phases.
Benefits:
- minimize the amount of work done by the farmer to check one by one every animal in the herd
- save money (the average price of a cow is 1500 euros. if a cow isn’t properly treated, it can lead to her death so to loss of money)
- improve productivity
- improve the cow welfare

Banking use cases
Fraud detection in banking
Problem:
Institutions and businesses face massive losses due to fraud. According to Crowe UK, fraud has cost the global economy $5.38 trillion in 2021. Fraud can have consequences on banks and their customers. Indeed, more and more transactions are done online due to the emergence of e-commerce and fraudsters can take advantage of and scam buyers.
For example, a fraud can be electronic fraud, or pishing. Electronic fraud consists of illegally accessing and using another person's personal data on the Internet; and pishing consists of obtaining another person's data via email and pretending to be that person and using their data in an illegal way (transfer, purchase...).
Banks and other companies have to find a good solution that will allow them to reduce costs and improve customer trust and satisfaction. The solution has to be able to prevent and detect those frauds.
Solution:
Fraud detection through Machine learning and artificial intelligence is highly recommended for its efficiency in terms of quality, speed, and cost. However, this strategy requires some prerequisites, the most important one being the data collection process. Given the nature of the problem, an expert may choose to collect data samples with features allowing to discriminate well between fraudulent transactions and normal ones (e.g. location, mail, amount of items purchased).
Besides the data collection process, the choice of the model is also critical. In general, practitioners favour supervised models since there is empirical evidence according to which they perform better than the unsupervised ones on several problems. The added value of the Ezako platform, named Upalgo Anomaly Detection, is to revert this paradigm by proposing highly-efficient unsupervised approaches to deal with anomaly detection. The output of the proposed models will obviously be a binary variable: fraudulent or non-fraudulent transaction.
Benefits :
Thanks to an Anomaly Detection solution, companies :
- gain the customer trust and satisfaction;
- keep and improve the image of their company;
- detect, prevent and eliminate fraud;
- detect in real-time;
- are more efficient with faster fraud detection;
- lower their cost.

Rotating machine anomalies
Problem:
Hydroelectric generators are used to produce electricity. They produce electricity from a flow of moving water. These contain rotating parts that can fail. For example, in order to function properly, there must be a minimum water flow. If not moving parts can get damaged very fast. When a hydroelectric generator breaks, there is a double effect on costs. First, the repair can cost a lot of money with parts to be ordered and teams to be made available. Second, there is a production deficit, as it can’t produce electricity. Moreover, this downtime can lead to the shutdown of the units that depend on this hydroelectric turbine.
Solution:
The generators equipped with sensors will help the utility companies create the right algorithms: vibrations, pressure, temperature, flow etc.. Upalgo Anomaly Detection will use these data to train predictive algorithms and detect in advance any disparities indicating a future outage. Using Upalgo helps avoid unplanned failures, thus saving millions of dollars each year in repairs, component replacement, downtime and lost revenue.
Benefits:
