THE ADJUSTED HISTOGRAM-BASED OUTLIER SCORE - AHBOS

Histogram-based Outlier Score (HBOS): A fast Unsupervised Anomaly Detection Algorithm

Unsupervised anomaly detection is the process of nding outliers in data sets without prior training. In this paper, a histogrambased outlier detection (HBOS) algorithm is presented, which scores records in linear time. It assumes independence of the features making it much faster than multivariate approaches at the cost of less precision. A comparative evaluation on three UCI data sets and 10 s...

Balancing Score Adjusted Targeted Minimum Loss-based Estimation.

Adjusting for a balancing score is sufficient for bias reduction when estimating causal effects including the average treatment effect and effect among the treated. Estimators that adjust for the propensity score in a nonparametric way, such as matching on an estimate of the propensity score, can be consistent when the estimated propensity score is not consistent for the true propensity score b...

Adjusted functional boxplots for spatiotemporal data visualization and outlier detection

This article proposes a simulation-based method to adjust functional boxplots for correlations when visualizing functional and spatio-temporal data, as well as detecting outliers. We start by investigating the relationship between the spatiotemporal dependence and the 1.5 times the 50% central region empirical outlier detection rule. Then, we propose to simulate observations without outliers on...

Optimally Adjusted Mixture Sampling and Locally Weighted Histogram Analysis

FP-outlier: Frequent pattern based outlier detection

An outlier in a dataset is an observation or a point that is considerably dissimilar to or inconsistent with the remainder of the data. Detection of such outliers is important for many applications and has recently attracted much attention in the data mining research community. In this paper, we present a new method to detect outliers by discovering frequent patterns (or frequent itemsets) from...
