StreamOutlierDetector

Detect outliers of sequence in stream.
In this project we have some assumption:

• This project works online that means has no idea about the future data
• This project forget older data (more than size of sample array)
• If more than half of sample array be in outlier then this project assume the majority is not outlier and calculate outlier detection for the sample again

Usage

install

pip install pyood
pip install --upgrade pyood # if you want update package

How use it

from pyood import OutlierDetector

outlier_detector = OutlierDetector(bound_factor_standard_deviation=3, window_size=20, size_initial_ignore=10)

is_outlier = outlier_detector.push(your_value)

if you want, you can use it with callback function

from pyood import OutlierDetector

def result(is_outlier):
    print(is_outlier)

outlier_detector = OutlierDetector(bound_factor_standard_deviation=3, window_size=20, size_initial_ignore=10)

is_outlier = outlier_detector.push(value=your_value, callback=result)

Help

bound_factor_standard_deviation is the factor that multiple with standard deviation. |value - mean| > bound_factor_standard_deviation * satandard deviation is the outlier.
window_size is the size of array is effective for finding outlier.
first_learning_number is the number of first value we ignore and learn from them.

Result

I test this class and show the functionality of it on a chart.
❌ are the outliers we detect.
🔵 are the normal values.
- are the bound of outlier detection.
