• Abstract summary: This work proposes a real-time anomaly detection scheme that leverages the multi-step ahead prediction capabilities of encoder-decoder (ED) deep learning models with recurrent units. Specifically, an encoder-decoder is used to model soft-failure evolution over a long future horizon (i.e., for several days ahead) by analyzing past quality-of-transmission (QoT) observations.

• Abstract: This work proposes a real-time anomaly detection scheme that leverages the multi-step ahead prediction capabilities of encoder-decoder (ED) deep learning models with recurrent units. Specifically, an encoder-decoder is used to model soft-failure evolution over a long future horizon (i.e., for several days ahead) by analyzing past quality-of-transmission (QoT) observations. This information is subsequently used for real-time anomaly detection (e.g., of attack incidents), as the knowledge of how the QoT is expected to evolve allows capturing unexpected network behavior. Specifically, for anomaly detection, a statistical hypothesis testing scheme is used, alleviating the limitations of supervised (SL) and unsupervised learning (UL) schemes, usually applied for this purpose. Indicatively, the proposed scheme eliminates the need for labeled anomalies, required when SL is applied, and the need for on-line analyzing entire datasets to identify abnormal instances (i.e., UL). Overall, it is shown that by utilizing QoT evolution information, the proposed approach can effectively detect abnormal deviations in real-time. Importantly, it is shown that the information concerning soft-failure evolution (i.e., QoT predictions) is essential to accurately detect anomalies.

  Masked Anomaly Detection (MAD) is a general self-supervised learning task for multivariate time series anomaly detection.

Our experimental results demonstrate that MAD can achieve better anomaly detection rates over traditional NSP approaches.
