This addresses a limitation in anomaly detection for applications where anomalies span time periods, such as in monitoring systems.
The paper tackles the problem of detecting anomalies that occur over a range of time, rather than at single points, by introducing a new mathematical model for range-based anomaly detection.
Classical anomaly detection is principally concerned with point-based anomalies, anomalies that occur at a single data point. In this paper, we present a new mathematical model to express range-based anomalies, anomalies that occur over a range (or period) of time.
