Abstract

En 中文

Multivariate time series anomaly detection is one of the most indispensable yet troublesome links in complex industrial processes. The main challenge lies in discovering the representative patterns for collective or contextual anomalies among interconnected sensory data streams, which has been largely hampered by inefficient spatial-temporal feature extraction and suboptimal decision criteria under the scarcity of positive training samples. This article goes beyond the common limitations of the existing methods, and novelly proposes Hierarchical Spatial-Temporal grAph Representation (HiSTAR). It processes the data with strong structural inductive biases through latent spatial-temporal graph modeling, yet requiring no predefined topological priors for the sensor network. A discriminative decision boundary is constructed by learning hierarchical normality-enclosing hyperspheres on the produced graph-structure representations. In this way, HiSTAR not only presents superior anomaly detection performance, but also provides consistent anomaly localization results. The efficacy of the proposed method is experimentally corroborated through three industrial case studies.
