• Abstract summary: We propose a data-driven scoring function defined on the feature space which reflects the degree of abnormality of the observations. This scoring function is learnt through a well-designed binary classification problem. We illustrate our methodology with preliminary encouraging numerical experiments.

• Abstract: The ability to collect and store ever more massive databases has been accompanied by the need to process them efficiently. In many cases, most observations have the same behavior, while a probable small proportion of these observations are abnormal. Detecting the latter, defined as outliers, is one of the major challenges for machine learning applications (e.g. in fraud detection or in predictive maintenance). In this paper, we propose a methodology addressing the problem of outlier detection, by learning a data-driven scoring function defined on the feature space which reflects the degree of abnormality of the observations. This scoring function is learnt through a well-designed binary classification problem whose empirical criterion takes the form of a two-sample linear rank statistics on which theoretical results are available. We illustrate our methodology with preliminary encouraging numerical experiments.

  Long-tailed object detection faces great challenges because of its extremely imbalanced class distribution. Recent methods mainly focus on the classification bias and its loss function design, while ignoring the subtle influence of the regression branch. This paper shows that the regression bias exists and does adversely and seriously impact the detection accuracy.

  We tackle two essential problems of active learning for Deep SVDD: query strategy and semi-supervised learning method. First, rather than solely identifying anomalies, our query strategy selects uncertain samples according to an adaptive boundary. Second, we apply noise contrastive estimation in training a one-class classification model to incorporate both labeled normal and abnormal data effectively.
