Continuous-time event sequences represent discrete events occurring in continuous time. Such sequences arise frequently in real-life. Usually we expect the sequences to follow some regular pattern over time. However, sometimes these…
Detecting performance issues and identifying their root causes in the runtime is a challenging task. Typically, developers use methods such as logging and tracing to identify bottlenecks. These solutions are, however, not ideal as they are…
We consider the problem of link prediction in networks whose edge structure may vary (sufficiently slowly) over time. This problem, with applications in many important areas including social networks, has two main variants: the first, known…
The task of outlier detection is to find small groups of data objects that are exceptional when compared with rest large amount of data. In [38], the problem of outlier detection in categorical data is defined as an optimization problem and…
Given an unlabeled dataset, wherein we have access only to pairwise similarities (or distances), how can we effectively (1) detect outliers, and (2) annotate/tag the outliers by type? Outlier detection has a large literature, yet we find a…
Link prediction is an elemental challenge in network science, which has already found applications in guiding laboratorial experiments, digging out drug targets, recommending friends in social networks, probing mechanisms in network…
A sensor network is considered where at each sensor a sequence of random variables is observed. At each time step, a processed version of the observations is transmitted from the sensors to a common node called the fusion center. At some…
Inference in the presence of outliers is an important field of research as outliers are ubiquitous and may arise across a variety of problems and domains. Bayesian optimization is method that heavily relies on probabilistic inference. This…
We study a novel outlier detection problem that aims to identify abnormal input-output associations in data, whose instances consist of multi-dimensional input (context) and output (responses) pairs. We present our approach that works by…
Weighted Outlier Detection is a method for identifying unusual or anomalous data points in a dataset, which can be caused by various factors like human error, fraud, or equipment malfunctions. Detecting outliers can reveal vital information…
The presence of outliers is prevalent in machine learning applications and may produce misleading results. In this paper a new method for dealing with outliers and anomal samples is proposed. To overcome the outlier issue, the proposed…
Clustering, or unsupervised classification, is a task often plagued by outliers. Yet there is a paucity of work on handling outliers in clustering. Outlier identification algorithms tend to fall into three broad categories: outlier…
In the past decade, network structures have penetrated nearly every aspect of our lives. The detection of anomalous vertices in these networks has become increasingly important, such as in exposing computer network intruders or identifying…
Some networked systems can be better modelled by multilayer structure where the individual nodes develop relationships in multiple layers. Multilayer networks with similar nodes across layers are also known as multiplex networks. This…
Complex networks are graphs representing real-life systems that exhibit unique characteristics not found in purely regular or completely random graphs. The study of such systems is vital but challenging due to the complexity of the…
Outlier detection algorithms typically assign an outlier score to each observation in a dataset, indicating the degree to which an observation is an outlier. However, these scores are often not comparable across algorithms and can be…
Rare data in a large-scale database are called outliers that reveal significant information in the real world. The subspace-based outlier detection is regarded as a feasible approach in very high dimensional space. However, the outliers…
This study deals with the problem of outliers in ordinal response model, which is a regression on ordered categorical data as the response variable. ``Outlier" means that the combination of ordered categorical data and its covariates is…
We propose a new outlier detection method for multi-dimensional data. The method detects outliers based on vector cosine similarity, using a new dataset constructed by adding a dimension with zero values to the original data. When a point…
Link prediction is one of the fundamental problems in computational social science. A particularly common means to predict existence of unobserved links is via structural similarity metrics, such as the number of common neighbors; node…
