Phát hiện bất thường

Cách thức hoạt động của phát hiện bất thường

Anomaly detection techniques analyze data to establish a baseline of normalcy. Anything falling outside this baseline is flagged as an anomaly. The methods used can range from simple statistical approaches, like identifying points far from the mean, to complex deep learning models capable of understanding intricate patterns in high-dimensional data. Key approaches include:

• Supervised Learning: Requires a labeled dataset containing both normal and anomalous examples. While effective, obtaining labeled anomaly data can be challenging as anomalies are often rare and unexpected.
• Semi-Supervised Learning: Trains on a dataset containing only normal data. The model learns the normal patterns, and any data point that doesn't conform is considered anomalous. This is useful when anomalies are diverse or poorly defined.
• Unsupervised Learning: Does not require labeled data. It uses techniques like clustering (e.g., DBSCAN) or dimensionality reduction (e.g., PCA) to identify data points that are isolated or different from the majority. Autoencoders are also commonly used here.

While related to other data analysis tasks, anomaly detection has distinct goals:

• Object Detection: Aims to identify and locate known object instances (like cars, people) within an image using bounding boxes. Anomaly detection, especially in computer vision, focuses on identifying unexpected visual patterns or defects that don't fit the norm, which might not correspond to predefined object classes.
• Image Classification: Assigns a single label to an entire image (e.g., 'cat' or 'dog'). Anomaly detection can operate on various data types (images, time series, network logs) and identifies specific instances or patterns within the data that are unusual, rather than classifying the whole data point.
• Outlier Detection: Often used interchangeably with anomaly detection. However, "outlier" typically refers to a data point that is statistically distant from others, while "anomaly" can encompass more complex deviations, including unusual patterns or contextual irregularities that might not be simple statistical outliers.

Anomaly detection is critical across numerous fields:

• Manufacturing Quality Control: Identifying defects like cracks, scratches, or misalignments in products on an assembly line using vision systems. For example, detecting tiny cracks in aircraft components or incorrectly printed labels on pharmaceutical products.
• Cybersecurity: Detecting unusual network traffic patterns, login attempts, or system behaviors that could indicate intrusions, malware infections, or denial-of-service attacks. Security alarm systems can leverage anomaly detection to flag suspicious activities.
• Financial Fraud Detection: Identifying unauthorized credit card transactions, unusual trading activities, or insurance claims that deviate from typical customer behavior.
• Healthcare and Medical Image Analysis: Spotting abnormalities in medical scans (like X-rays or MRIs) that might indicate tumors or diseases, often assisting radiologists. Using YOLO11 for tumor detection is an example.
• System Health Monitoring: Detecting unusual performance metrics in IT systems (CPU usage, memory leaks) or industrial machinery (predictive maintenance) to prevent failures.
• Environmental Monitoring: Identifying pollution events, illegal deforestation via satellite image analysis, or unusual changes in ecosystems.

Công cụ và công nghệ

Developing anomaly detection systems often involves standard ML libraries and specialized platforms. Frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow provide fundamental tools for building custom models. For vision-based tasks, models like Ultralytics YOLO can be adapted. While pre-trained YOLO models excel at detecting common objects, they can be custom-trained on specific datasets to identify domain-specific anomalies, such as unique defects or unusual visual patterns not covered by datasets like COCO. Platforms like Ultralytics HUB offer integrated environments for cloud training, deploying (model deployment options), and managing such models efficiently using tools like the Ultralytics HUB SDK. Libraries like Scikit-learn also offer various algorithms for outlier and anomaly detection.
