Anomaly Detection in High Dimensional Data (Q74767): Difference between revisions
From MaRDI portal
Removed claim: summary (P1638): This article presents a novel approach to detecting anomalies in high-dimensional data, dubbed the "stray algorithm." The authors address shortcomings of the existing HDoutliers algorithm by proposing an innovative method that leverages extreme value theory to enhance threshold calculation efficiency. Extensive tests with both synthetic and actual datasets showcase the stray algorithm's superiority over HDoutliers in terms of accuracy and spe... Tag: Reverted |
Changed claim: summary_simple (P1639): This paper introduces a novel algorithm for spotting unusual data points in big piles of information—the stray algorithm. It was created because another tool (HDoutliers) has some flaws that make it less useful under specific conditions. The new algorithm looks at how much something stands out from the rest, using fancy math called extreme value theory to find special cases. Tests on pretend and real data showed that the stray does a better j... |

| Property / summary_simple: Hey little buddy! Imagine you have a big box filled with colorful marbles, but one or two are different from the others. We need to find out which ones they are so we can separate them. In this story, people made a special tool called "the stray algorithm" that helps us see if any of our special marbles (called anomalies) stick out and need our attention. They compared their new method with an old one called HDoutliers, and guess what? Their new stray algorithm works better because it can find the different marbles faster and more accurately! Plus, they shared this cool tool for everyone to use by making it a free R package that anyone can play with. (English) / rank | |||

This article introduces a novel algorithm for detecting anomalies in high-dimensional data, known as the stray algorithm. Developed to overcome limitations in the performance of existing algorithms like HDoutliers, this method identifies anomalies based on extreme value theory by calculating thresholds for large distance gaps between observations. Extensive testing with both synthetic and real datasets has demonstrated that the stray algorithm not only outperforms its predecessor but also excels in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency. The stray algorithm is available as an open-source R package, further highlighting its versatility and potential impact on anomaly detection methods. (English) | |||
