CREDIT CARD FRAUD DETECTION USING BLOCKCHAIN AND GRASSMANN ALGORITHM
The rapid expansion of digital payments and e-commerce has significantly increased the risk of credit card fraud, exposing the inadequacy of traditional authentication mechanisms such as passwords, PINs, and CVV codes. These credential-based methods verify only what a person possesses or knows, not who they physically are — a distinction that fraudsters readily exploit.
This project presents a secure online shopping and payment platform that addresses this gap by integrating facial biometric authentication with blockchain-based transaction recording. The Grassmann algorithm is applied for face recognition, enabling robust identity verification across real-world variations in lighting, facial expression, and head orientation. At the point of payment, the system captures a live facial image, processes it through the Grassmann subspace matching framework, and compares it against the registered cardholder's stored biometric profile. Only a verified match permits the transaction to proceed.
