英文摘要:

Detecting outliers or anomalies is a common data analysis task. As a sub-field of unsupervised machine learning, a large variety of approaches exist, but the vast majority treats the input features as independent and often fails to recognize even simple (linear) relationships in the input feature space. Hence, we introduce RECol, a generic data pre-processing approach to generate additional columns in a leave-one-out-fashion: For each column, we try to predict its values based on the other columns, generating reconstruction error columns. We run experiments across a large variety of common baseline approaches and benchmark datasets with and without our RECol pre-processing method and show that the generated reconstruction error feature space generally seems to support common outlier detection methods and often considerably improves their ROC-AUC and PR-AUC values.
