Here we present a dataset, MNIST4OD, of large size (number of dimensions and number of instances) suitable for Outliers Detection task.The dataset is based on the famous MNIST dataset (http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/).We build MNIST4OD in the following way:To distinguish between outliers and inliers, we choose the images belonging to a digit as inliers (e.g. digit 1) and we sample with uniform probability on the remaining images as outliers such as their number is equal to 10% of that of inliers. We repeat this dataset generation process for all digits. For implementation simplicity we then flatten the images (28 X 28) into vectors.Each file MNIST_x.csv.gz contains the corresponding dataset where the inlier class is equal to x.The data contains one instance (vector) in each line where the last column represents the outlier label (yes/no) of the data point. The data contains also a column which indicates the original image class (0-9).See the following numbers for a complete list of the statistics of each datasets ( Name | Instances | Dimensions | Number of Outliers in % ):MNIST_0 | 7594 | 784 | 10MNIST_1 | 8665 | 784 | 10MNIST_2 | 7689 | 784 | 10MNIST_3 | 7856 | 784 | 10MNIST_4 | 7507 | 784 | 10MNIST_5 | 6945 | 784 | 10MNIST_6 | 7564 | 784 | 10MNIST_7 | 8023 | 784 | 10MNIST_8 | 7508 | 784 | 10MNIST_9 | 7654 | 784 | 10

Understanding the statistics of fluctuation driven flows in the boundary layer of magnetically confined plasmas is desired to accurately model the lifetime of the vacuum vessel components. Mirror Langmuir probes (MLPs) are a novel diagnostic that uniquely allow us to sample the plasma parameters on a time scale shorter than the characteristic time scale of their fluctuations. Sudden large-amplitude fluctuations in the plasma degrade the precision and accuracy of the plasma parameters reported by MLPs for cases in which the probe bias range is of insufficient amplitude. While some data samples can readily be classified as valid and invalid, we find that such a classification may be ambiguous for up to 40% of data sampled for the plasma parameters and bias voltages considered in this study. In this contribution, we employ an autoencoder (AE) to learn a low-dimensional representation of valid data samples. By definition, the coordinates in this space are the features that mostly characterize valid data. Ambiguous data samples are classified in this space using standard classifiers for vectorial data. In this way, we avoid defining complicated threshold rules to identify outliers, which require strong assumptions and introduce biases in the analysis. By removing the outliers that are identified in the latent low-dimensional space of the AE, we find that the average conductive and convective radial heat fluxes are between approximately 5% and 15% lower as when removing outliers identified by threshold values. For contributions to the radial heat flux due to triple correlations, the difference is up to 40%.

Ordinary least square (OLS) estimation of a linear regression model is well-known to be highly sensitive to outliers. It is common practice to (1) identify and remove outliers by looking at the data and (2) to fit OLS and form confidence intervals and p-values on the remaining data as if this were the original data collected. This standard “detect-and-forget” approach has been shown to be problematic, and in this article we highlight the fact that it can lead to invalid inference and show how recently developed tools in selective inference can be used to properly account for outlier detection and removal. Our inferential procedures apply to a general class of outlier removal procedures that includes several of the most commonly used approaches. We conduct simulations to corroborate the theoretical results, and we apply our method to three real datasets to illustrate how our inferential results can differ from the traditional detect-and-forget strategy. A companion R package, outference, implements these new procedures with an interface that matches the functions commonly used for inference with lm in R. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

Identification of errors or anomalous values, collectively considered outliers, assists in exploring data or through removing outliers improves statistical analysis. In biomechanics, outlier detection methods have explored the ‘shape’ of the entire cycles, although exploring fewer points using a ‘moving-window’ may be advantageous. Hence, the aim was to develop a moving-window method for detecting trials with outliers in intra-participant time-series data. Outliers were detected through two stages for the strides (mean 38 cycles) from treadmill running. Cycles were removed in stage 1 for one-dimensional (spatial) outliers at each time point using the median absolute deviation, and in stage 2 for two-dimensional (spatial–temporal) outliers using a moving window standard deviation. Significance levels of the t-statistic were used for scaling. Fewer cycles were removed with smaller scaling and smaller window size, requiring more stringent scaling at stage 1 (mean 3.5 cycles removed for 0.0001 scaling) than at stage 2 (mean 2.6 cycles removed for 0.01 scaling with a window size of 1). Settings in the supplied Matlab code should be customised to each data set, and outliers assessed to justify whether to retain or remove those cycles. The method is effective in identifying trials with outliers in intra-participant time series data.

Cylindrical data are bivariate data formed from the combination of circular and linear variables. Identifying outliers is a crucial step in any data analysis work. This paper proposes a new distribution-free procedure to detect outliers in cylindrical data using the Mahalanobis distance concept. The use of Mahalanobis distance incorporates the correlation between the components of the cylindrical distribution, which had not been accounted for in the earlier papers on outlier detection in cylindrical data. The threshold for declaring an observation to be an outlier can be obtained via parametric or non-parametric bootstrap, depending on whether the underlying distribution is known or unknown. The performance of the proposed method is examined via extensive simulations from the Johnson-Wehrly distribution. The proposed method is applied to two real datasets, and the outliers are identified in those datasets.

We present a set of novel algorithms which we call sequenceMiner, that detect and characterize anomalies in large sets of high-dimensional symbol sequences that arise from recordings of switch sensors in the cockpits of commercial airliners. While the algorithms we present are general and domain-independent, we focus on a specific problem that is critical to determining system-wide health of a fleet of aircraft. The approach taken uses unsupervised clustering of sequences using the normalized length of he longest common subsequence (nLCS) as a similarity measure, followed by a detailed analysis of outliers to detect anomalies. In this method, an outlier sequence is defined as a sequence that is far away from a cluster. We present new algorithms for outlier analysis that provide comprehensible indicators as to why a particular sequence is deemed to be an outlier. The algorithm provides a coherent description to an analyst of the anomalies in the sequence when compared to more normal sequences. The final section of the paper demonstrates the effectiveness of sequenceMiner for anomaly detection on a real set of discrete sequence data from a fleet of commercial airliners. We show that sequenceMiner discovers actionable and operationally significant safety events. We also compare our innovations with standard HiddenMarkov Models, and show that our methods are superior

The Multi-Domain Outlier Detection Dataset contains datasets for conducting outlier detection experiments for four different application domains:

Astrophysics - detecting anomalous observations in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) catalog (data type: feature vectors)

Planetary science - selecting novel geologic targets for follow-up observation onboard the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover (data type: grayscale images)

Earth science: detecting anomalous samples in satellite time series corresponding to ground-truth observations of maize crops (data type: time series/feature vectors)

Fashion-MNIST/MNIST: benchmark task to detect anomalous MNIST images among Fashion-MNIST images (data type: grayscale images)

Each dataset contains a "fit" dataset (used for fitting or training outlier detection models), a "score" dataset (used for scoring samples used to evaluate model performance, analogous to test set), and a label dataset (indicates whether samples in the score dataset are considered outliers or not in the domain of each dataset).

Abstract: Building health management is an important part in running an efficient and cost-effective building. Many problems in a building’s system can go undetected for long periods of time, leading to expensive repairs or wasted resources. This project aims to help detect and diagnose the building‘s health with data driven methods throughout the day. Orca and IMS are two state of the art algorithms that observe an array of building health sensors and provide feedback on the overall system’s health as well as localize the problem to one, or possibly two, components. With this level of feedback the hope is to quickly identify problems and provide appropriate maintenance while reducing the number of complaints and service calls. Introduction: To prepare these technologies for the new installation, the proposed methods are being tested on a current system that behaves similarly to the future green building. Building 241 was determined to best resemble the proposed building 232 and therefore was chosen for this study. Building 241 is currently outfitted with 34 sensors that monitor the heating & cooling temperatures for the air and water systems as well as other various subsystem states. The daily sensor recordings were logged and sent to the IDU group for analysis. The period of analysis was focused from July 1st through August 10th 2009. Methodology: The two algorithms used for analysis were Orca and IMS. Both methods look for anomalies using a distanced based scoring approach. Orca has the ability to use a single data set and find outliers within that data set. This tactic was applied to each day. After scoring each time sample throughout a given day the Orca score profiles were compared by computing the correlation against all other days. Days with high overall correlations were considered normal however days with lower overall correlations were more anomalous. IMS, on the other hand, needs a normal set of data to build a model, which can be applied to a set of test data to asses how anomaly the particular data set is. The typical days identified by Orca were used as the reference/training set for IMS, while all the other days were passed through IMS resulting in an anomaly score profile for each day. The mean of the IMS score profile was then calculated for each day to produce a summary IMS score. These summary scores were ranked and the top outliers were identified (see Figure 1). Once the anomalies were identified the contributing parameters were then ranked by the algorithm. Analysis: The contributing parameters identified by IMS were localized to the return air temperature duct system. -7/03/09 (Figure 2 & 3) AHU-1 Return Air Temperature (RAT) Calculated Average Return Air Temperature -7/19/09 (Figure 3 & 4) AHU-2 Return Air Temperature (RAT) Calculated Average Return Air Temperature IMS identified significantly higher temperatures compared to other days during the month of July and August. Conclusion: The proposed algorithms Orca and IMS have shown that they were able to pick up significant anomalies in the building system as well as diagnose the anomaly by identifying the sensor values that were anomalous. In the future these methods can be used on live streaming data and produce a real time anomaly score to help building maintenance with detection and diagnosis of problems.

1) Data Introduction • The Dynamic Apparel Sales with Anomalies Dataset is based on 100,000 sales transaction data from the fashion industry, including extreme outliers, missing values, and sales_categories, reflecting the different data characteristics of real retail environments.

2) Data Utilization (1) Dynamic Apparel Sales with Anomalies Dataset has characteristics that: • This dataset consists of nine categorical variables and 10 numerical variables, including product name, brand, gender clothing, price, discount rate, inventory level, and customer behavior, making it suitable for analyzing product and customer characteristics. (2) Dynamic Apparel Sales with Anomalies Dataset can be used to: • Sales anomaly detection and quality control: Transaction data with outliers and missing values can be used to detect outliers, manage quality, refine data, and develop outlier processing techniques. • Sales Forecast and Customer Analysis Modeling: Based on a variety of product and customer characteristics, it can be used to support data-driven decision-making, such as machine learning-based sales forecasting, customer segmentation, and customized marketing strategies.

The Controlled Anomalies Time Series (CATS) Dataset consists of commands, external stimuli, and telemetry readings of a simulated complex dynamical system with 200 injected anomalies.

The CATS Dataset exhibits a set of desirable properties that make it very suitable for benchmarking Anomaly Detection Algorithms in Multivariate Time Series [1]:

• Multivariate (17 variables) including sensors reading and control signals. It simulates the operational behaviour of an arbitrary complex system including:
  • 4 Deliberate Actuations / Control Commands sent by a simulated operator / controller, for instance, commands of an operator to turn ON/OFF some equipment.
  • 3 Environmental Stimuli / External Forces acting on the system and affecting its behaviour, for instance, the wind affecting the orientation of a large ground antenna.
  • 10 Telemetry Readings representing the observable states of the complex system by means of sensors, for instance, a position, a temperature, a pressure, a voltage, current, humidity, velocity, acceleration, etc.
• 5 million timestamps. Sensors readings are at 1Hz sampling frequency.
  • 1 million nominal observations (the first 1 million datapoints). This is suitable to start learning the "normal" behaviour.
  • 4 million observations that include both nominal and anomalous segments. This is suitable to evaluate both semi-supervised approaches (novelty detection) as well as unsupervised approaches (outlier detection).
• 200 anomalous segments. One anomalous segment may contain several successive anomalous observations / timestamps. Only the last 4 million observations contain anomalous segments.
• Different types of anomalies to understand what anomaly types can be detected by different approaches. The categories are available in the dataset and in the metadata.
• Fine control over ground truth. As this is a simulated system with deliberate anomaly injection, the start and end time of the anomalous behaviour is known very precisely. In contrast to real world datasets, there is no risk that the ground truth contains mislabelled segments which is often the case for real data.
• Suitable for root cause analysis. In addition to the anomaly category, the time series channel in which the anomaly first developed itself is recorded and made available as part of the metadata. This can be useful to evaluate the performance of algorithm to trace back anomalies to the right root cause channel.
• Affected channels. In addition to the knowledge of the root cause channel in which the anomaly first developed itself, we provide information of channels possibly affected by the anomaly. This can also be useful to evaluate the explainability of anomaly detection systems which may point out to the anomalous channels (root cause and affected).
• Obvious anomalies. The simulated anomalies have been designed to be "easy" to be detected for human eyes (i.e., there are very large spikes or oscillations), hence also detectable for most algorithms. It makes this synthetic dataset useful for screening tasks (i.e., to eliminate algorithms that are not capable to detect those obvious anomalies). However, during our initial experiments, the dataset turned out to be challenging enough even for state-of-the-art anomaly detection approaches, making it suitable also for regular benchmark studies.
• Context provided. Some variables can only be considered anomalous in relation to other behaviours. A typical example consists of a light and switch pair. The light being either on or off is nominal, the same goes for the switch, but having the switch on and the light off shall be considered anomalous. In the CATS dataset, users can choose (or not) to use the available context, and external stimuli, to test the usefulness of the context for detecting anomalies in this simulation.
• Pure signal ideal for robustness-to-noise analysis. The simulated signals are provided without noise: while this may seem unrealistic at first, it is an advantage since users of the dataset can decide to add on top of the provided series any type of noise and choose an amplitude. This makes it well suited to test how sensitive and robust detection algorithms are against various levels of noise.
• No missing data. You can drop whatever data you want to assess the impact of missing values on your detector with respect to a clean baseline.

Change Log

Version 2

• Metadata: we include a metadata.csv with information about:
  • Anomaly categories
  • Root cause channel (signal in which the anomaly is first visible)
  • Affected channel (signal in which the anomaly might propagate) through coupled system dynamics
• Removal of anomaly overlaps: version 1 contained anomalies which overlapped with each other resulting in only 190 distinct anomalous segments. Now, there are no more anomaly overlaps.
• Two data files: CSV and parquet for convenience.

Patterns of multi-locus differentiation (i.e., genomic clines) often extend broadly across hybrid zones and their quantification can help diagnose how species boundaries are shaped by adaptive processes, both intrinsic and extrinsic. In this sense, the transitioning of loci across admixed individuals can be contrasted as a function of the genome-wide trend, in turn allowing an expansion of clinal theory across a much wider array of biodiversity. However, computational tools that serve to interpret and consequently visualize ‘genomic clines’ are limited.

Here, we introduce the ClinePlotR R-package for visualizing genomic clines and detecting outlier loci using output generated by two popular software packages, bgc and Introgress.

ClinePlotR bundles both input generation (i.e, filtering datasets and creating specialized file formats) and output processing (e.g., MCMC thinning and burn-in) with functions that directly facilitate interpretation and hypothesis testing. Tools are also p...

The spatial signature of microevolutionary processes structuring genetic variation may play an important role in the detection of loci under selection. However, the spatial location of samples has not yet been used to quantify this. Here, we present a new two-step method of spatial outlier detection at the individual and deme levels using the power spectrum of Moran eigenvector maps (MEM). The MEM power spectrum quantifies how the variation in a variable, such as the frequency of an allele at a SNP locus, is distributed across a range of spatial scales defined by MEM spatial eigenvectors. The first step (Moran spectral outlier detection: MSOD) uses genetic and spatial information to identify outlier loci by their unusual power spectrum. The second step uses Moran spectral randomization (MSR) to test the association between outlier loci and environmental predictors, accounting for spatial autocorrelation. Using simulated data from two published papers, we tested this two-step method in different scenarios of landscape configuration, selection strength, dispersal capacity and sampling design. Under scenarios that included spatial structure, MSOD alone was sufficient to detect outlier loci at the individual and deme levels without the need for incorporating environmental predictors. Follow-up with MSR generally reduced (already low) false-positive rates, though in some cases led to a reduction in power. The results were surprisingly robust to differences in sample size and sampling design. Our method represents a new tool for detecting potential loci under selection with individual-based and population-based sampling by leveraging spatial information that has hitherto been neglected.

Anomaly detection is the problem of identifying unusual patterns in data. This problem is relevant for a wide variety of applications in various domains such as fault and damage detection in manufacturing, fraud detection in finance and insurance, intrusion detection in cybersecurity, disease detection in medical diagnosis, or scientific discovery. Many of these applications involve increasingly complex data at large scale, for instance, large collections of images or text. The lack of effective solutions in such settings has sparked an interest in developing anomaly detection methods based on deep learning, which has enabled breakthroughs in other machine learning problems that involve large amounts of complex data. This thesis proposes Deep One-Class Learning, a deep learning approach to anomaly detection that is based on the one-class classification paradigm. One-class classification views anomaly detection from a classification perspective, aiming to learn a discriminative decision boundary that separates the normal from the anomalous data. In contrast to previous methods that rely on fixed (usually manually engineered) features, deep one-class learning expands the one-class classification approach with methods that learn (or transfer) data representations via suitable one-class learning objectives. The key idea underlying deep one-class learning is to learn a transformation (e.g., a deep neural network) in such a way that the normal data points are concentrated in feature space, causing anomalies to deviate from the concentrated region, thereby making them detectable. We introduce several deep one-class learning methods in this thesis that follow the above idea while integrating different assumptions about the data or a specific domain. These include semi-supervised variants that can incorporate labeled anomalies, for example, or specific methods for images and text that enable model interpretability and an explanation of anomalies. Moreover, we present a unifying view of anomaly detection methods that, in addition to one-class classification, also covers reconstruction methods as well as methods based on density estimation and generative modeling. For each of these main approaches, we identify connections between respective deep and "shallow" methods based on common underlying principles. Through multiple experiments and analyses, we demonstrate that deep one-class learning is useful for anomaly detection, especially on semantic detection tasks. Finally, we conclude this thesis by discussing limits of the proposed approach and outlining specific paths for future research.
