Coupled IGMM-GANs for improved generative adversarial anomaly detection. 2018 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data), 2538–2541. https://doi.org/10.1109/BigData.2018.8622424https://hdl.handle.net/1805/22062Detecting anomalies and outliers in data has a number of applications including hazard sensing, fraud detection, and systems management. While generative adversarial networks seem like a natural fit for addressing these challenges, we find that existing GAN based anomaly detection algorithms perform poorly due to their inability to handle multimodal patterns. For this purpose we introduce an infinite Gaussian mixture model coupled with (bi-directional) generative adversarial networks, IGMM-GAN, that facilitates multimodal anomaly detection. We illustrate our methodology and its improvement over existing GAN anomaly detection on the MNIST dataset.enPublisher Policyanomaly detectiongallium nitridegeneratorsConference proceedings
