• Abstract: Anomaly detection using a network-based approach is one of the most efficient ways to identify abnormal events such as fraud, security breaches, and system faults in a variety of applied domains. While most of the earlier works address the complex nature of graph-structured data and predefined anomalies, the impact of data attributes and emerging anomalies are often neglected. This paper introduces DCOR, a novel approach on attributed networks that integrates reconstruction-based anomaly detection with Contrastive Learning. Utilizing a Graph Neural Network (GNN) framework, DCOR contrasts the reconstructed adjacency and feature matrices from both the original and augmented graphs to detect subtle anomalies. We employed comprehensive experimental studies on benchmark datasets through standard evaluation measures. The results show that DCOR significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Obtained results demonstrate the efficacy of proposed approach in attributed networks with the potential of uncovering new patterns of anomalies.

  The present work deals with uncovering anomalous edges in attributed graphs using two distinct formulations with complementary strengths. The first relies on decomposing the graph data matrix into low rank plus sparse components to improve markedly performance. The second broadens the scope of the first by performing robust recovery of the unperturbed graph, which enhances the anomaly identification performance.
