چکیده

Detecting outliers in mixed attribute datasets is one of major challenges in real world applications. Existing outlier detection methods lack effectiveness for mixed attribute datasets mainly due to their inability of considering interactions among different types of, e.g., numerical and categorical attributes. To address this issue in mixed attribute datasets, we propose a novel Pattern based Outlier Detection approach (POD). Pattern in this paper is defined to describe majority of data as well as capture interactions among different types of attributes. In POD, the more does an object deviate from these patterns, the higher is its outlier factor. We use logistic regression to learn patterns and then formulate the outlier factor in mixed attribute datasets. A series of experimental results illustrate that POD performs statistically significantly better than several classic outlier detection methods.

Outlier Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Distributed Principal Component Analysis

Detecting anomalies is an important challenge for intrusion detection and fault diagnosis in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To address the problem of outlier detection in wireless sensor networks, in this paper we present a PCA-based centralized approach and a DPCA-based distributed energy-efficient approach for detecting outliers in sensed data in a WSN. The outliers in sensed data can be ca...

Pattern based Outlier Detection in Mixed-Attribute Datasets

Outlier detection in mixed attribute datasets has proved to be a challenging task required in real world applications. Most existing algorithms for outlier detection do not consider the interactions between categorical and numerical attributes. The Pattern based Outlier Detection (POD) algorithm (Zhang & Jin, 2011), has had considerable success in the detecting outliers by analysing such intera...

Abnormal Pattern Recognition in Spatial Data

In the recent years, abnormal spatial pattern recognition has received a great deal of attention from both industry and academia, and has become an important branch of data mining. Abnormal spatial patterns, or spatial outliers, are those observations whose characteristics are markedly different from their spatial neighbors. The identification of spatial outliers can be used to reveal hidden bu...
