On Integrated Clustering and Outlier Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
We model the joint clustering and outlier detection problem using an extension of the facility location formulation. The advantages of combining clustering and outlier selection include: (i) the resulting clusters tend to be compact and semantically coherent (ii) the clusters are more robust against data perturbations and (iii) the outliers are contextualised by the clusters and more interpretable. We provide a practical subgradient-based algorithm for the problem and also study the theoretical properties of algorithm in terms of approximation and convergence. Extensive evaluation on synthetic and real data sets attest to both the quality and scalability of our proposed method.

Outlier Detection Using Extreme Learning Machines Based on Quantum Fuzzy C-Means
One of the most important concerns of a data miner is always to have accurate and error-free data. Data that does not contain human errors and whose records are full and contain correct data. In this paper, a new learning model based on an extreme learning machine neural network is proposed for outlier detection. The function of neural networks depends on various parameters such as the structur...
متن کاملOutlier Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Distributed Principal Component Analysis
Detecting anomalies is an important challenge for intrusion detection and fault diagnosis in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To address the problem of outlier detection in wireless sensor networks, in this paper we present a PCA-based centralized approach and a DPCA-based distributed energy-efficient approach for detecting outliers in sensed data in a WSN. The outliers in sensed data can be ca...

متن کاملSupport Vector Clustering for Outlier Detection
In this paper a novel Support vector clustering(SVC) method for outlier detection is proposed. Outlier detection algorithms have application in several tasks such as data mining, data preprocessing, data filter-cleaner, time series analysis and so on. Traditionally outlier detection methods are mostly based on modeling data based on its statistical properties and these approaches are only prefe...
