## Abstract

Today, a number of works are being carried out all over the world to develop data processing and management systems, as well as to apply artificial intelligence and information technologies in the fields of production, science, education, and healthcare. The optimization of the management of socio-economic process systems, and the management and reliability of databases of the digital payment information-based information systems of enterprises and organizations are relevant. This research work investigates the issue of increasing the reliability of information in information systems working with payment information. The characteristics of ambiguous suspicious transactions in payment systems are analyzed, and based on the analysis, preliminary data preparation stages are carried out for the intelligent detection of ambiguous suspicious transactions. Traditional and neural network models of machine learning for the detection of suspicious transactions in payment information management systems are developed, and a comparative analysis is carried out. Furthermore, to enhance the performance of the core LSTM model, an Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimization algorithm was integrated for automated hyperparameter tuning, which improved the model’s accuracy and efficiency in identifying complex fraudulent patterns.
