Locality-Based Visual Outlier Detection Algorithm for Time Series

Physiological theories indicate that the deepest impression for time series data with respect to the human visual system is its extreme value. Based on this principle, by researching the strategies of extreme-point-based hierarchy segmentation, the hierarchy-segmentation-based data extraction method for time series, and the ideas of locality outlier, a novel outlier detection model and method for time series are proposed. The presented algorithm intuitively labels an outlier factor to each subsequence in time series such that the visual outlier detection gets relatively direct. The experimental results demonstrate the average advantage of the developed method over the compared methods and the efficient data reduction capability for time series, which indicates the promising performance of the proposed method and its practical application value.
