With a large of time series dataset from the Internet of Things in Ambient Intelligence-enabled smart environments, many supervised learning-based anomaly detection methods have been investigated but ignored the correlation among the time series. To address this issue, we present a new idea for anomaly detection based on dynamic graph embedding, in which the dynamic graph comprises the multiple time series and their correlation in each time interval. We propose an entropy for measuring a graph’s information injunction with a correlation matrix to define similarity between graphs. A dynamic graph embedding model based on the graph similarity is proposed to cluster the graphs for anomaly detection. We implement the proposed model in vehicular edge computing for traffic incident detection. The experiments are carried out using traffic data produced by the Simulation of Urban Mobility framework. The experimental findings reveal that the proposed method achieves better results than the baselines by 14.5% and 18.1% on average with respect to F1-score and accuracy, respectively.

Existing dynamic graph embedding-based outlier detection methods mainly focus on the evolution of graphs and ignore the similarities among them. To overcome this limitation for the effective detection of abnormal climatic events from meteorological time series, we proposed a dynamic graph embedding model based on graph proximity, called DynGPE. Climatic events are represented as a graph where each vertex indicates meteorological data and each edge indicates a spurious relationship between two meteorological time series that are not causally related. The graph proximity is described as the distance between two graphs. DynGPE can cluster similar climatic events in the embedding space. Abnormal climatic events are distant from most of the other events and can be detected using outlier detection methods. We conducted experiments by applying three outlier detection methods (i.e., isolation forest, local outlier factor, and box plot) to real meteorological data. The results showed that DynGPE achieves better results than the baseline by 44.3% on average in terms of the F-measure. Isolation forest provides the best performance and stability. It achieved higher results than the local outlier factor and box plot methods, namely, by 15.4% and 78.9% on average, respectively.

AbstractAbnormal climate event is that some meteorological conditions are extreme in a certain time interval. The existing methods for detecting abnormal climate events utilize supervised learning models to learn the abnormal patterns, but they cannot detect the untrained patterns. To overcome this problem, we construct a dynamic graph by discovering the correlation among the climate time series and propose a novel dynamic graph embedding model based on graph entropy called EDynGE to discriminate anomalies. The graph entropy measurement quantifies the information of the graphs and constructs the embedding space. We conducted experiments on synthetic datasets and real-world meteorological datasets. The results showed that EdynGE model achieved a better F1-score than the baselines by 43.2%, and the number of days of abnormal climate events has increased by 304.5 days in the past 30 years.

There is a growing interest in safety warning of underground mining due to the huge threat being faced by those working in underground mining. Data acquisition of sensors based on Internet of Things (IoT) is currently the main method, but the data anomaly detection and analysis of multi-sensors is a challenging task: firstly, the data that are collected by different sensors of underground mining are heterogeneous; secondly, real-time is required for the data anomaly detection of safety warning. Currently, there are many anomaly detection methods, such as traditional clustering methods K-means and C-means. Meanwhile, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely used in data analysis and prediction. However, K-means and C-means cannot directly process heterogeneous data, and AI algorithms require equipment with high computing and storage capabilities. IoT equipment of underground mining cannot perform complex calculation due to the limitation of energy consumption. Therefore, many existing methods cannot be directly used for IoT applications in underground mining. In this paper, a multi-sensors data anomaly detection method based on edge computing is proposed. Firstly, an edge computing model is designed, and according to the computing capabilities of different types of devices, anomaly detection tasks are migrated to different edge devices, which solve the problem of insufficient computing capabilities of the devices. Secondly, according to the requirements of different anomaly detection tasks, edge anomaly detection algorithms for sensor nodes and sink nodes are designed respectively. Lastly, an experimental platform is built for performance comparison analysis, and the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in anomaly detection accuracy, delay, and energy consumption.

Pattern recognition technology is applied to bridge health monitoring to solve abnormalities in bridge health monitoring data. Testing is of great significance. For abnormal data detection, this paper proposes a single variable pattern anomaly detection method based on KNN distance and a multivariate time series anomaly detection method based on the covariance matrix and singular value decomposition. This method first performs compression and segmentation on the original data sequence based on important points to obtain multiple time subsequences, then calculates the pattern distance between each time subsequence according to the similarity measure of the time series, and finally selects the abnormal mode according to the KNN method. In this paper, the reliability of the method is verified through experiments. The experimental results in this paper show that the 5/7/9 / 11-nearest neighbors point to a specific number of nodes. Combined with the original time series diagram corresponding to the time zone view, in this paragraph in the time, the value of the temperature sensor No. 6 stays at 32.5 degrees Celsius for up to one month. The detection algorithm controls the number of MTS subsequences through sliding windows and sliding intervals. The execution time is not large, and the value of K is different. Although the calculated results are different, most of the most obvious abnormal sequences can be detected. The results of this paper provide a certain reference value for the study of abnormal detection of bridge health monitoring data.

Aiming at the anomaly detection problem in sensor data, traditional algorithms usually only focus on the continuity of single-source data and ignore the spatiotemporal correlation between multisource data, which reduces detection accuracy to a certain extent. Besides, due to the rapid growth of sensor data, centralized cloud computing platforms cannot meet the real-time detection needs of large-scale abnormal data. In order to solve this problem, a real-time detection method for abnormal data of IoT sensors based on edge computing is proposed. Firstly, sensor data is represented as time series; K-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm is further used to detect outliers and isolated groups of the data stream in time series. Secondly, an improved DBSCAN (Density Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) algorithm is proposed by considering spatiotemporal correlation between multisource data. It can be set according to sample characteristics in the window and overcomes the slow convergence problem using global parameters and large samples, then makes full use of data correlation to complete anomaly detection. Moreover, this paper proposes a distributed anomaly detection model for sensor data based on edge computing. It performs data processing on computing resources close to the data source as much as possible, which improves the overall efficiency of data processing. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed method has higher computational efficiency and detection accuracy than traditional methods and has certain feasibility.

For abnormal detection of time series data, the supervised anomaly detection methods require labeled data. While the range of outlier factors used by the existing semi-supervised methods varies with data, model and time, the threshold for determining abnormality is difficult to obtain, in addition, the computational cost of the way to calculate outlier factors from other data points in the data set is also very large. These make such methods difficult to practically apply. This paper proposes a framework named LSTM-VE which uses clustering combined with visualization method to roughly label normal data, and then uses the normal data to train long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network for semi-supervised anomaly detection. The variance error (VE) of the normal data category classification probability sequence is used as outlier factor. The framework enables anomaly detection based on deep learning to be practically applied and using VE avoids the shortcomings of existing outlier factors and gains a better performance. In addition, the framework is easy to expand because the LSTM neural network can be replaced with other classification models. Experiments on the labeled and real unlabeled data sets prove that the framework is better than replicator neural networks with reconstruction error (RNN-RS) and has good scalability as well as practicability.

We propose anomaly detection to refine input data for predictive machine learning systems. When training, if there are outliers such as spike noises mixed in the input data, the quality of the trained model is deteriorated. The removing such outliers would be expected the service quality of machine learning systems improves such as autonomous vehicles and ship navigation. Conventionally, anomaly detection methods generally require the support of domain experts, and they could not treat with unstable random environments well. We propose a new anomaly detection method, which is highly stable and is capable of treating with random environments without experts. The proposed methods focus on a pairwise correlation between two input time-series, change rates of them are calculated and summarized on a quadrant chart for further analysis. The experiment using an open time-series dataset shows that the proposed methods successfully detect anomalies, and the detected data points are easily illustrated in a human-interpretable way.
