A multivariate dataset consists of $n$ cases in $d$ dimensions, and is often stored in an $n$ by $d$ data matrix. It is well-known that real data may contain outliers. Depending on the situation, outliers may be (a) undesirable errors which…

Outlier is the term that indicates in statistics an anomalous observation, aberrant, clearly distant from others collected observations. The outliers are the subject to animated discussions in various contexts with regard to be or not to be…

Out-of-distribution detection (OOD) deals with anomalous input to neural networks. In the past, specialized methods have been proposed to reject predictions on anomalous input. Similarly, it was shown that feature extraction models in…

Outlier detection is a well-researched and crucial problem in machine learning. However, there is little research on string data outlier detection, as most literature focuses on outlier detection of numerical data. A robust string data…

Wireless sensor networks usually comprise a large number of sensors monitoring changes in variables. These changes in variables represent changes in physical quantities. The changes can occur for various reasons; these reasons are…

Outlier, or anomaly, detection is essential for optimal performance of machine learning methods and statistical predictive models. It is not just a technical step in a data cleaning process but a key topic in many fields such as fraudulent…

We study the change detection problem with an unknown post-change distribution. Under this constraint, the unknown change in the distribution of observations may occur in many ways without much structure on the observations, whereas, before…

Outlier detection is the identification of points in a dataset that do not conform to the norm. Outlier detection is highly sensitive to the choice of the detection algorithm and the feature subspace used by the algorithm. Extracting…

We consider functional outlier detection from a geometric perspective, specifically: for functional data sets drawn from a functional manifold which is defined by the data's modes of variation in amplitude and phase. Based on this manifold,…

Surface, image and video data can be considered as functional data with a bivariate domain. To detect outlying surfaces or images, a new method is proposed based on the mean and the variability of the degree of outlyingness at each grid…

Many traditional methods for identifying changepoints can struggle in the presence of outliers, or when the noise is heavy-tailed. Often they will infer additional changepoints in order to fit the outliers. To overcome this problem, data…

The outlier detection problem in some cases is similar to the classification problem. For example, the main concern of clustering-based outlier detection algorithms is to find clusters and outliers, which are often regarded as noise that…

Most real-world IoT data analysis tasks, such as clustering and anomaly event detection, are unsupervised and highly susceptible to the presence of outliers. In addition to sporadic scattered outliers caused by factors such as faulty sensor…

Outlier detection refers to the identification of data points that deviate from a general data distribution. Existing unsupervised approaches often suffer from high computational cost, complex hyperparameter tuning, and limited…

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…

Outlier detection is a fundamental task in data mining and has many applications including detecting errors in databases. While there has been extensive prior work on methods for outlier detection, modern datasets often have sizes that are…

Outlier detection plays a significant role in various real world applications such as intrusion, malfunction, and fraud detection. Traditionally, outlier detection techniques are applied to find outliers in the context of the whole dataset.…

This article introduces trimmed estimators for the mean and covariance function of general functional data. The estimators are based on a new measure of outlyingness or data depth that is well defined on any metric space, although this…

Machine learning techniques can automatically identify outliers in massive datasets, much faster and more reproducible than human inspection ever could. But finding such outliers immediately leads to the question: which features render this…

This work describes an outlier detection procedure (named "OutlierTree") loosely based on the GritBot software developed by RuleQuest research, which works by evaluating and following supervised decision tree splits on variables, in whose…
