  • Publication number: 20240078318
    Abstract: A computerized machine learning anomaly detection model trained on a plurality of samples of one or more source domains (optionally, one or more source domains and the target domain) is accessed. Using online deep sets, one or more domain vectors are computed for each target domain sample at an observation point, each target domain sample corresponding to a given target domain, where the one or more domain vectors represent a similarity and difference among the source and target domains. The target domain sample is processed using the anomaly detection model trained on the plurality of samples of the source to generate an anomaly score, the processing being based on the computed one or more domain vectors.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe a computer-implemented method of detecting anomalous data associated with a system-under-analysis. The computer-implemented method includes using a first encoder stage of a neural network to generate content-irrelevant latent code from input data. A second encoder stage of the neural network is used to generate domain-irrelevant latent code from the input data. A decoder stage of the neural network is used to generate reconstructed input data. The reconstructed input data includes a reconstruction of the input data based at least in part on the content-irrelevant latent code and the domain-irrelevant latent code. A reconstruction loss is generated based at least in part on the reconstructed input data. The reconstruction loss is used to determine that the input data includes an anomalous data candidate.

    Abstract: In an approach for propagating labels of objects in an image, a processor receives the image. A processor performs a normalization of the image. A processor runs the image through a pre-trained object detector. A processor receives a set of detected objects from the pre-trained object detector. A processor determines a width dimension and a height dimension of a bounding box for each detected object of the set of detected objects. A processor propagates a label for each instance of each detected object in the image with the respective bounding box using prior geometric knowledge of bounding box placement. A processor inverses the normalization of the labeled image. A processor outputs the labeled image.
