We propose a new method for novelty detection that can tolerate high corruption of the training points, whereas previous works assumed either no or very low corruption. Our method trains a robust variational autoencoder (VAE), which aims to generate a model for the uncorrupted training points. To gain robustness to high corruption, we incorporate the following four changes to the common VAE: 1. Extracting crucial features of the latent code by a carefully designed dimension reduction component for distributions; 2. Modeling the latent distribution as a mixture of Gaussian low-rank inliers and full-rank outliers, where the testing only uses the inlier model; 3. Applying the Wasserstein-1 metric for regularization, instead of the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence; and 4. Using a least absolute deviation error for reconstruction. We establish both robustness to outliers and suitability to low-rank modeling of the Wasserstein metric as opposed to the KL divergence. We illustrate state-of-the-art results on standard benchmarks for novelty detection.

Point patterns are sets or multi-sets of unordered elements that can be found in numerous data sources. However, in data analysis tasks such as classification and novelty detection, appropriate statistical models for point pattern data have not recei ved much attention. This paper proposes the modelling of point pattern data via random finite sets (RFS). In particular, we propose appropriate likelihood functions, and a maximum likelihood estimator for learning a tractable family of RFS models. In novelty detection, we propose novel ranking functions based on RFS models, which substantially improve performance.
One-class novelty detectors are trained with examples of a particular class and are tasked with identifying whether a query example belongs to the same known class. Most recent advances adopt a deep auto-encoder style architecture to compute novelty scores for detecting novel class data. Deep networks have shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks, yet little focus is devoted to studying the adversarial robustness of deep novelty detectors. In this paper, we first show that existing novelty detectors are susceptible to adversarial examples. We further demonstrate that commonly-used defense approaches for classification tasks have limited effectiveness in one-class novelty detection. Hence, we need a defense specifically designed for novelty detection. To this end, we propose a defense strategy that manipulates the latent space of novelty detectors to improve the robustness against adversarial examples. The proposed method, referred to as Principal Latent Space (PLS), learns the incrementally-trained cascade principal components in the latent space to robustify novelty detectors. PLS can purify latent space against adversarial examples and constrain latent space to exclusively model the known class distribution. We conduct extensive experiments on multiple attacks, datasets and novelty detectors, showing that PLS consistently enhances the adversarial robustness of novelty detection models.

To ensure undisrupted business, large Internet companies need to closely monitor various KPIs (e.g., Page Views, number of online users, and number of orders) of its Web applications, to accurately detect anomalies and trigger timely troubleshooting/ mitigation. However, anomaly detection for these seasonal KPIs with various patterns and data quality has been a great challenge, especially without labels. In this paper, we proposed Donut, an unsupervised anomaly detection algorithm based on VAE. Thanks to a few of our key techniques, Donut greatly outperforms a state-of-arts supervised ensemble approach and a baseline VAE approach, and its best F-scores range from 0.75 to 0.9 for the studied KPIs from a top global Internet company. We come up with a novel KDE interpretation of reconstruction for Donut, making it the first VAE-based anomaly detection algorithm with solid theoretical explanation.
We propose a new approach to train a variational information bottleneck (VIB) that improves its robustness to adversarial perturbations. Unlike the traditional methods where the hard labels are usually used for the classification task, we refine the categorical class information in the training phase with soft labels which are obtained from a pre-trained reference neural network and can reflect the likelihood of the original class labels. We also relax the Gaussian posterior assumption in the VIB implementation by using the mutual information neural estimation. Extensive experiments have been performed with the MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets, and the results show that our proposed approach significantly outperforms the benchmarked models.
Unsupervised learning can leverage large-scale data sources without the need for annotations. In this context, deep learning-based auto encoders have shown great potential in detecting anomalies in medical images. However, state-of-the-art anomaly sc ores are still based on the reconstruction error, which lacks in two essential parts: it ignores the model-internal representation employed for reconstruction, and it lacks formal assertions and comparability between samples. We address these shortcomings by proposing the Context-encoding Variational Autoencoder (ceVAE) which combines reconstruction- with density-based anomaly scoring. This improves the sample- as well as pixel-wise results. In our experiments on the BraTS-2017 and ISLES-2015 segmentation benchmarks, the ceVAE achieves unsupervised ROC-AUCs of 0.95 and 0.89, respectively, thus outperforming state-of-the-art methods by a considerable margin.
