Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for determining an environmental impact of one or more transactions. An example method generally includes accessing transaction data representative of a plurality of transactions, where each of the transactions involves a user and a merchant, and accessing at least one index indicative of environmental impact of a plurality of merchants. The method also includes generating a graph based on the users and merchants included in the transaction data, whereby the graph is representative of the plurality of transactions, and determining a mapping between ones of the merchants involved in the transaction data and the environmental impact indicated by the at least one index, based on at least one of: the graph, the accessed at least one index, a graph convolution network (GCN), and a graph neural network (GNN). The method then includes publishing the mapping between the ones of the merchants and the environmental impact.
