Outlier detection is one of the most important processes taken to create good, reliable data in machine learning. The most methods of outlier detection leverage an auxiliary reconstruction task by assuming that outliers are more difficult…

Outlier detection (OD), distinguishing inliers and outliers in completely unlabeled datasets, plays a vital role in science and engineering. Although there have been many insightful OD methods, most of them require troublesome…

We present different methods of unsupervised learning which can be used for outlier detection in high energy nuclear collisions. The UrQMD model is used to generate the bulk background of events as well as different variants of outlier…

A large body of work in the statistics and computer science communities dating back to Huber (Huber, 1960) has led to statistically and computationally efficient outlier-robust estimators. Two particular outlier models have received…

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) aims to leverage massive unlabeled data when labels are expensive to obtain. Unfortunately, in many real-world applications, the collected unlabeled data will inevitably contain unseen-class outliers not…

The paper introduces a new efficient nonlinear one-class classifier formulated as the Rayleigh quotient criterion optimisation. The method, operating in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, minimises the scatter of target distribution along…

Anomaly detection aims at identifying data points that show systematic deviations from the majority of data in an unlabeled dataset. A common assumption is that clean training data (free of anomalies) is available, which is often violated…

One-class classifiers offer valuable tools to assess the presence of outliers in data. In this paper, we propose a design methodology for one-class classifiers based on entropic spanning graphs. Our approach takes into account the…

Machine learning models often encounter samples that are diverged from the training distribution. Failure to recognize an out-of-distribution (OOD) sample, and consequently assign that sample to an in-class label significantly compromises…

The development of effective knowledge discovery techniques has become in the recent few years a very active research area due to the important impact it has in several relevant application areas. One interesting task thereof is that of…

Real data often contain anomalous cases, also known as outliers. These may spoil the resulting analysis but they may also contain valuable information. In either case, the ability to detect such anomalies is essential. A useful tool for…

We consider the multi-class classification problem when the training data and the out-of-sample test data may have different distributions and propose a method called BCOPS (balanced and conformal optimized prediction sets). BCOPS…

Outlier explanation is the task of identifying a set of features that distinguish a sample from normal data, which is important for downstream (human) decision-making. Existing methods are based on beam search in the space of feature…

The one-class anomaly detection approach has previously been found to be effective in face presentation attack detection, especially in an \textit{unseen} attack scenario, where the system is exposed to novel types of attacks. This work…

Anomaly detection based on one-class classification algorithms is broadly used in many applied domains like image processing (e.g. detection of whether a patient is "cancerous" or "healthy" from mammography image), network intrusion…

In statistics and machine learning, the traditional meaning of the terms `outlier' and `anomaly' is a case in the dataset that behaves differently from the bulk of the data. This raises suspicion that it may belong to a different…

The problem of identifying the most discriminating features when performing supervised learning has been extensively investigated. In particular, several methods for variable selection in model-based classification have been proposed.…

Cybersecurity has recently gained considerable interest in today's security issues because of the popularity of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), the considerable growth of mobile networks, and many related apps. Therefore, detecting numerous…

Detecting latent structure within a dataset is a crucial step in performing analysis of a dataset. However, existing state-of-the-art techniques for subclass discovery are limited: either they are limited to detecting very small numbers of…

The neighbor-based method has become a powerful tool to handle the outlier detection problem, which aims to infer the abnormal degree of the sample based on the compactness of the sample and its neighbors. However, the existing methods…
