An introduction to Anomaly Detection

NYC UG June 2020 Bevy.jpg

 

On June 24th, as part of the launch of the New York user group, we’ll identify the outliers with @pmasiphelps (Lead Data Scientist, Dataiku) who will present an anomaly detection project in Dataiku DSS, based on the data in The Washington Post’s The Opioid Files.

Anomaly detection is a step in data mining that identifies data points, events, and/or observations that deviate from a dataset's normal behavior. Anomalous data can indicate critical incidents, such as a technical glitch, or potential opportunities, for instance a change in consumer behavior.

Anomaly detection is an approach that can be useful across an array of industries and for a variety of purposes, including IT and DevOps, manufacturing, healthcare, banking and finance, and in the public sector.
