Flow-based SVDD for anomaly detection

Abstract

We propose FlowSVDD -- a flow-based one-class classifier for anomaly/outliers detection that realizes a well-known SVDD principle using deep learning tools. Contrary to other approaches to deep SVDD, the proposed model is instantiated using flow-based models, which naturally prevents from collapsing of bounding hypersphere into a single point. Experiments show that FlowSVDD achieves comparable results to the current state-of-the-art methods and significantly outperforms related deep SVDD methods on benchmark datasets.
