Often the analysis of time-dependent chemical and biophysical systems produces high-dimensional time-series data for which it can be difficult to interpret which individual features are most salient. While recent work from our group and…

We propose a new type of variational autoencoder to perform improved pre-processing for clustering and anomaly detection on data with a given label. Anomalies however are not known or labeled. We call our method conditional latent space…
