Anomaly detection technology has two broad categories: segmentation based and kernel based anomaly detection techniques. According to different similarity measures ,kernel based anomaly detection techniques including KNNC(k-nearest neighbor for continuous time series) and KNND( a discrete version of KNNC) method. KNNC has better accuracy but lower efficiency than KNND, but KNND would lost information in some cases. In this paper, we proposed a symbolic similarity based anomaly detection approach ANOKP which used a symbolic similarity KPDIST.KPDISP get a better accuracy than SAX through selecting Key Points in SAX discritizing result of time series. Experimental results on several real life data sets indicate that the proposed anomaly detection method ANOKP have better accuracy than KNND and similar efficiency with KNNC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
