Fetch the credit fraud dataset from figshare.

This is an imbalanced binary classification use-case. This dataset consists in two tables:

  • baskets, containing the binary fraud target label

  • products

Baskets contain at least one product each, so aggregation then joining operations are required to build a design matrix.
