• Abstract: Incipient anomalies present milder symptoms compared to severe ones, and are more difficult to detect and diagnose due to their close resemblance to normal operating conditions. The lack of incipient anomaly examples in the training data can pose severe risks to anomaly detection methods that are built upon Machine Learning (ML) techniques, because these anomalies can be easily mistaken as normal operating conditions. To address this challenge, we propose to utilize the uncertainty information available from ensemble learning to identify potential misclassified incipient anomalies. We show in this paper that ensemble learning methods can give improved performance on incipient anomalies and identify common pitfalls in these models through extensive experiments on two real-world datasets. Then, we discuss how to design more effective ensemble models for detecting incipient anomalies.

• Anomaly Detection by Leveraging Incomplete Anomalous Knowledge with Anomaly-Aware Bidirectional GANs [15.399369134281775]
  The goal of anomaly detection is to identify anomalous samples from normal ones. In this paper, a small number of anomalies are assumed to be available at the training stage, but they are assumed to be collected only from several anomaly types. We propose to learn a probability distribution that can not only model the normal samples, but also guarantee to assign low density values for the collected anomalies.

  A few labeled anomaly examples are often available in many real-world applications. These anomaly examples provide valuable knowledge about the application-specific abnormality. Those anomalies seen during training often do not illustrate every possible class of anomaly. This paper tackles open-set supervised anomaly detection.

  We introduce a novel weakly-supervised anomaly detection framework to train detection models. The proposed approach learns discriminative normality by leveraging the labeled anomalies and a prior probability. Our model is substantially more sample-efficient and robust, and performs significantly better than state-of-the-art competing methods in both closed-set and open-set settings.

  We consider the problem of anomaly detection with a small set of partially labeled anomaly examples and a large-scale unlabeled dataset. Existing related methods either exclusively fit the limited anomaly examples that typically do not span the entire set of anomalies, or proceed with unsupervised learning from the unlabeled data. We propose here instead a deep reinforcement learning-based approach that enables an end-to-end optimization of the detection of both labeled and unlabeled anomalies.
