The proliferation and variety of Internet of Things devices means that they have increasingly become a viable target for malicious users. This has created a need for anomaly detection algorithms that can work across multiple devices. This…

There is a growing need to quickly and accurately identify anomalous behavior in ships. This paper applies a variation of the Density Based Spatial Clustering Among Noise (DBSCAN) algorithm to identify such anomalous behavior given a ship's…

Clustering stands as one of the most prominent challenges in unsupervised machine learning. Among centroid-based methods, the classic $k$-means algorithm, based on Lloyd's heuristic, is widely used. Nonetheless, it is a well-known fact that…

Outlier detection (also known as anomaly detection or deviation detection) is a process of detecting data points in which their patterns deviate significantly from others. It is common to have outliers in industry applications, which could…

Outlier detection is an important task in data mining and many technologies have been explored in various applications. However, due to the default assumption that outliers are non-concentrated, unsupervised outlier detection may not…

Clustering algorithms are fundamental tools across many fields, with density-based methods offering particular advantages in identifying arbitrarily shaped clusters and handling noise. However, their effectiveness is often limited by the…

Recent advancements in neutron and X-ray sources, instrumentation and data collection modes have significantly increased the experimental data size (which could easily contain 10$^{8}$ -- 10$^{10}$ data points), so that conventional…

HDBSCAN is a density-based clustering algorithm that constructs a cluster hierarchy tree and then uses a specific stability measure to extract flat clusters from the tree. We show how the application of an additional threshold value can…

As in other estimation scenarios, likelihood based estimation in the normal mixture set-up is highly non-robust against model misspecification and presence of outliers (apart from being an ill-posed optimization problem). A robust…

We formulate the abnormal event detection problem as an outlier detection task and we propose a two-stage algorithm based on k-means clustering and one-class Support Vector Machines (SVM) to eliminate outliers. In the feature extraction…

Among the many challenges posed by the huge data volumes produced by the new generation of astronomical instruments there is also the search for rare and peculiar objects. Unsupervised outlier detection algorithms may provide a viable…

Clustering is a cornerstone of modern data analysis. Detecting clusters in exploratory data analyses (EDA) requires algorithms that make few assumptions about the data. Density-based clustering algorithms are particularly well-suited for…

Traditional machine learning models focus on achieving good performance on the overall training distribution, but they often underperform on minority groups. Existing methods can improve the worst-group performance, but they can have…

In many situations where the interest lies in identifying clusters one might expect that not all available variables carry information about these groups. Furthermore, data quality (e.g. outliers or missing entries) might present a serious…

This paper introduces a novel family of outlier detection algorithms based on Cluster Catch Digraphs (CCDs), specifically tailored to address the challenges of high dimensionality and varying cluster shapes, which deteriorate the…

In real world, our datasets often contain outliers. Moreover, the outliers can seriously affect the final machine learning result. Most existing algorithms for handling outliers take high time complexities (e.g. quadratic or cubic…

We directly compare X-ray and optical techniques of cluster detection by combining SDSS photometric data with a wide-field ($\sim 1.8$ deg$^{2}$) XMM-{\em Newton} survey in the North Galactic Pole region. The optical cluster detection…

Outlier detection refers to the identification of anomalous samples that deviate significantly from the distribution of normal data and has been extensively studied and used in a variety of practical tasks. However, most unsupervised…

DBSCAN is a classical density-based clustering procedure with tremendous practical relevance. However, DBSCAN implicitly needs to compute the empirical density for each sample point, leading to a quadratic worst-case time complexity, which…

Existing methods for anomaly detection based on memory-augmented autoencoder (AE) have the following drawbacks: (1) Establishing a memory bank requires additional memory space. (2) The fixed number of prototypes from subjective assumptions…
