Anomaly Detection and Explanation

We develop deep learning model that detects and explain anomaly in multivariate time series data.

Our model is based on Anomaly Transformer: Time Series Anomaly Detection with Association Discrepancy (ICLR'22). We train and evaluate the model on DBSherlock dataset.

Anomaly Transformer

Anomaly transformer is a transformer-based model that detects anomaly in multivariate time series data. It is based on the assumption that the normal data is highly correlated, while the abnormal data is not. It uses a transformer encoder to learn the correlation between different time steps, and then uses a discriminator to distinguish the normal and abnormal data based on the learned correlation.

• An inherent distinguishable criterion as Association Discrepancy for detection.
• A new Anomaly-Attention mechanism to compute the association discrepancy.
• A minimax strategy to amplify the normal-abnormal distinguishability of the association discrepancy.

Environment Setup

Start docker container using docker compose, and login to the container

docker compose up -d

Install python packages

pip install -r requirements.txt

Prepare Dataset

Download

Download DBSherlock dataset.

python scripts/dataset/download_datasets.py

Append --download_all argument to download all datasets (i.e., SMD, SMAP, PSM, MSL, and DBSherlock).

python scripts/dataset/download_datasets.py --download_all

Preprocess data

Convert DBSherlock data (.mat file to .json file):

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/convert.py \
    --input dataset/dbsherlock/tpcc_16w.mat \
    --out_dir dataset/dbsherlock/converted/ \
    --prefix tpcc_16w

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/convert.py \
    --input dataset/dbsherlock/tpcc_500w.mat \
    --out_dir dataset/dbsherlock/converted/ \
    --prefix tpcc_500w

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/convert.py \
    --input dataset/dbsherlock/tpce_3000.mat \
    --out_dir dataset/dbsherlock/converted/ \
    --prefix tpce_3000

Convert DBSherlock data into train & validate data for Anomaly Transformer:

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/process.py \
    --input_path dataset/dbsherlock/converted/tpcc_16w_test.json \
    --output_path dataset/dbsherlock/processed/tpcc_16w/

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/process.py \
    --input_path dataset/dbsherlock/converted/tpcc_500w_test.json \
    --output_path dataset/dbsherlock/processed/tpcc_500w/

python src/data_factory/dbsherlock/process.py \
    --input_path dataset/dbsherlock/converted/tpce_3000_test.json \
    --output_path dataset/dbsherlock/processed/tpce_3000/

Train and Evaluate

We provide the experiment scripts under the folder ./scripts. You can reproduce the experiment results with the below script:

bash ./scripts/experiment/DBS.sh

or you can run the below commands to train and evaluate the model step by step.

Training

Train the model on DBSherlock dataset:

python main.py \
    --dataset EDA \
    --dataset_path dataset/EDA/ \
    --mode train

Evaluating

Evaluate the trained model on the test split of the same dataset:

python main.py \
    --dataset EDA \
    --dataset_path dataset/EDA/ \
    --mode test 

Inference

Perform inference on time series data with the trained model:

python main.py \
    --dataset EDA \
    --dataset_path dataset/EDA/ \
    --mode infer
    --output_path results/EDA/
