flex-anomalies

flex-anomalies is a Python library dedicated to anomaly detection in machine learning. It offers a wide range of algorithms and techniques, including models based on distance, density, trees, and neural networks such as convolutional and recurrent architectures. The library also provides aggregators, anomaly score processing techniques, and pre-processing techniques for data.

Anomaly detection involves examining data and detecting deviations or anomalies present in the data, with the goal of purifying data sets and identifying anomalies for further analysis.

Details

Anomaly Detection with FLEXible Federated Learning: This repository contains implementations of anomaly detection algorithms using the Flexible Federated Learning library. FLEXible is a Python library for realizing federated learning in an efficient and scalable manner. From the study of state-of-the-art research works on federated learning for network intrusion detection.

This repository also includes:

• An organized folder structure that makes it easy to navigate and understand the project.
• Explanatory notebooks showing practical examples and detailed explanations for the use of the library.
