Sparse anomaly detection across referentials: A rank-based higher criticism approach
跨参照总体的稀疏异常检测:基于秩的高阶批判方法
Detecting anomalies in large sets of observations is crucial in various applications, such as epidemiological studies, gene expression studies, and systems monitoring. We consider settings where the units of interest result in multiple independent observations from potentially distinct referentials. Scan statistics and related methods are commonly used in such settings, but rely on stringent modeling assumptions for proper calibration. We instead propose a rank-based variant…
