This book provides comprehensive coverage of the field of outlier analysis from a computer science point of view. It integrates methods from data mining, machine learning, and statistics within the computational framework and therefore appeals to multiple communities. The chapters of this book can be organized into three categories:
  • Basic algorithms: Chapters 1 through 7 discuss the fundamental algorithms for outlier analysis, including probabilistic and statistical methods, linear methods, proximity-based methods, high-dimensional (subspace) methods, ensemble methods, and supervised methods.
  • Domain-specific methods: Chapters 8 through 12 discuss outlier detection algorithms for various domains of data, such as text, categorical data, time-series data, discrete sequence data, spatial data, and network data.
  • Applications: Chapter 13 is devoted to various applications of outlier analysis. Some guidance is also provided for the practitioner.

The second edition of this book is more detailed and is written to appeal to both researchers and practitioners. Significant new material has been added on topics such as kernel methods, one-class support-vector machines, matrix factorization, neural networks, outlier ensembles, time-series methods, and subspace methods. It is written as a textbook and can be used for classroom teaching.

Author: Aggarwal, Charu C.
Charu C. Aggarwal obtained his B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Kanpur in 1993 and Ph.D. from MIT in 1996. He has been a Research Staff Member at IBM since then, and has published over 90 papers in major conferences and journals in the database and data mining field. He has applied for or been granted over 50 US and International patents, and has twice been designated Master Inventor at IBM for the commercial value of his patents. He has been granted 14 invention achievement awards by IBM for his patents. His work on real time bio-terrorist threat detection in data streams won the IBM Epispire award for environmental excellence in 2003. He has served on the program committee of most major database conferences, and was program chair for the Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Workshop, 2003, and a program vice-chair for the SIAM Conference on Data Mining, 2007. He is an associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Data Engineering and an action editor of the Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Journal. He is a senior member of the IEEE.
