The distance to the kth nearest neighbor can also be seen as a local density estimate and thus is also a popular outlier score in anomaly detection. The larger the distance to the k -NN, the lower the local density, the more likely the query point is an outlier. [ 25 ]
ELKI is an open-source Java data mining toolkit that contains several anomaly detection algorithms, as well as index acceleration for them. PyOD is an open-source Python library developed specifically for anomaly detection. [56] scikit-learn is an open-source Python library that contains some algorithms for unsupervised anomaly detection.
Network behavior anomaly detection (NBAD) is a security technique that provides network security threat detection. It is a complementary technology to systems that detect security threats based on packet signatures. [1] NBAD is the continuous monitoring of a network for unusual events or trends.
Another method is to define what normal usage of the system comprises using a strict mathematical model, and flag any deviation from this as an attack. This is known as strict anomaly detection. [3] Other techniques used to detect anomalies include data mining methods, grammar based methods, and Artificial Immune System. [2]
This is the first ensemble learning approach to outlier detection, for other variants see ref. [8] Local Outlier Probability (LoOP) [9] is a method derived from LOF but using inexpensive local statistics to become less sensitive to the choice of the parameter k. In addition, the resulting values are scaled to a value range of [0:1].

k-means clustering is rather easy to apply to even large data sets, particularly when using heuristics such as Lloyd's algorithm. It has been successfully used in market segmentation, computer vision, and astronomy among many other domains. It often is used as a preprocessing step for other algorithms, for example to find a starting configuration.
Structured k-nearest neighbours (SkNN) [1] [2] [3] is a machine learning algorithm that generalizes k-nearest neighbors (k-NN). k-NN supports binary classification, multiclass classification, and regression, [4] whereas SkNN allows training of a classifier for general structured output.
