PyODDS

PyODDS is an end-to end Python system for outlier detection with database support. PyODDS provides outlier detection algorithms which meet the demands for users in different fields, w/wo data science or machine learning background. PyODDS gives the ability to execute machine learning algorithms in-database without moving data out of the database server or over the network. It also provides access to a wide range of outlier detection algorithms, including statistical analysis and more recent deep learning based approaches. It is developed by DATA Lab at Texas A&M University.

PyODDS is featured for:

  • Full Stack Service which supports operations and maintenances from light-weight SQL based database to back-end machine learning algorithms and makes the throughput speed faster;

  • State-of-the-art Anomaly Detection Approaches including Statistical/Machine Learning/Deep Learning models with unified APIs and detailed documentation;

  • Powerful Data Analysis Mechanism which supports both static and time-series data analysis with flexible time-slice(sliding-window) segmentation.

  • Automated Machine Learning PyODDS describes the first attempt to incorporate automated machine learning with outlier detection, and belongs to one of the first attempts to extend automated machine learning concepts into real-world data mining tasks.

API Demo

from utils.import_algorithm import algorithm_selection
from utils.utilities import output_performance,connect_server,query_data

# connect to the database
conn,cursor=connect_server(host, user, password)

# query data from specific time range
data = query_data(database_name,table_name,start_time,end_time)

# train the anomaly detection algorithm
clf = algorithm_selection(algorithm_name)
clf.fit(X_train)

# get outlier result and scores
prediction_result = clf.predict(X_test)
outlierness_score = clf.decision_function(test)

# visualize the prediction_result
visualize_distribution(X_test,prediction_result,outlierness_score)

Quick Start

python main.py --ground_truth --visualize_distribution
