About PyOD ^^^^^^^^^^

PyOD, established in 2017, has become a go-to Python library for detecting anomalous/outlying objects in multivariate data. This exciting yet challenging field is commonly referred to as Outlier Detection <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomaly_detection>_ or Anomaly Detection <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomaly_detection>_.

PyOD includes more than 50 detection algorithms, from classical LOF (SIGMOD 2000) to the cutting-edge ECOD and DIF (TKDE 2022 and 2023). Since 2017, PyOD has been successfully used in numerous academic research projects and commercial products with more than 22 million downloads <https://pepy.tech/project/pyod>. It is also well acknowledged by the machine learning community with various dedicated posts/tutorials, including Analytics Vidhya <https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2019/02/outlier-detection-python-pyod/>, KDnuggets <https://www.kdnuggets.com/2019/02/outlier-detection-methods-cheat-sheet.html>, and Towards Data Science <https://towardsdatascience.com/anomaly-detection-for-dummies-15f148e559c1>.

PyOD is featured for:

Unified, User-Friendly Interface across various algorithms.
Wide Range of Models, from classic techniques to the latest deep learning methods in PyTorch.
High Performance & Efficiency, leveraging numba <https://github.com/numba/numba>_ and joblib <https://github.com/joblib/joblib>_ for JIT compilation and parallel processing.
Fast Training & Prediction, achieved through the SUOD framework [#Zhao2021SUOD]_.

Outlier Detection with 5 Lines of Code:

.. code-block:: python

# Example: Training an ECOD detector
from pyod.models.ecod import ECOD
clf = ECOD()
clf.fit(X_train)
y_train_scores = clf.decision_scores_  # Outlier scores for training data
y_test_scores = clf.decision_function(X_test)  # Outlier scores for test data

Selecting the Right Algorithm: Unsure where to start? Consider these robust and interpretable options:

ECOD <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/examples/ecod_example.py>_: Example of using ECOD for outlier detection
Isolation Forest <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/examples/iforest_example.py>_: Example of using Isolation Forest for outlier detection

Alternatively, explore MetaOD <https://github.com/yzhao062/MetaOD>_ for a data-driven approach.

Installation ^^^^^^^^^^^^

PyOD is designed for easy installation using either pip or conda. We recommend using the latest version of PyOD due to frequent updates and enhancements:

.. code-block:: bash

pip install pyod # normal install pip install --upgrade pyod # or update if needed

.. code-block:: bash

conda install -c conda-forge pyod

Alternatively, you can clone and run the setup.py file:

.. code-block:: bash

git clone https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod.git cd pyod pip install .

Required Dependencies:

Python 3.8 or higher
joblib
matplotlib
numpy>=1.19
numba>=0.51
scipy>=1.5.1
scikit_learn>=0.22.0

Optional Dependencies (see details below):

combo (optional, required for models/combination.py and FeatureBagging)
pytorch (optional, required for AutoEncoder, and other deep learning models)
suod (optional, required for running SUOD model)
xgboost (optional, required for XGBOD)
pythresh (optional, required for thresholding)

API Cheatsheet & Reference ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The full API Reference is available at PyOD Documentation <https://pyod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pyod.html>_. Below is a quick cheatsheet for all detectors:

fit(X): Fit the detector. The parameter y is ignored in unsupervised methods.
decision_function(X): Predict raw anomaly scores for X using the fitted detector.
predict(X): Determine whether a sample is an outlier or not as binary labels using the fitted detector.
predict_proba(X): Estimate the probability of a sample being an outlier using the fitted detector.
predict_confidence(X): Assess the model's confidence on a per-sample basis (applicable in predict and predict_proba) [#Perini2020Quantifying]_.

Key Attributes of a fitted model:

decision_scores_: Outlier scores of the training data. Higher scores typically indicate more abnormal behavior. Outliers usually have higher scores.
labels_: Binary labels of the training data, where 0 indicates inliers and 1 indicates outliers/anomalies.

ADBench Benchmark and Datasets ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We just released a 45-page, the most comprehensive ADBench: Anomaly Detection Benchmark <https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.09426>_ [#Han2022ADBench]. The fully open-sourced ADBench <https://github.com/Minqi824/ADBench> compares 30 anomaly detection algorithms on 57 benchmark datasets.

The organization of ADBench is provided below:

For a simpler visualization, we make the comparison of selected models via compare_all_models.py <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/examples/compare_all_models.py>_.

.. image:: https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/development/examples/ALL.png?raw=true :target: https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/development/examples/ALL.png?raw=true :alt: Comparison_of_All

Model Save & Load ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

PyOD takes a similar approach of sklearn regarding model persistence. See model persistence <https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/model_persistence.html>_ for clarification.

In short, we recommend to use joblib or pickle for saving and loading PyOD models. See "examples/save_load_model_example.py" <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/examples/save_load_model_example.py>_ for an example. In short, it is simple as below:

.. code-block:: python

from joblib import dump, load

# save the model
dump(clf, 'clf.joblib')
# load the model
clf = load('clf.joblib')

It is known that there are challenges in saving neural network models. Check #328 <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/issues/328#issuecomment-917192704>_ and #88 <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/issues/88#issuecomment-615343139>_ for temporary workaround.

Fast Train with SUOD ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Fast training and prediction: it is possible to train and predict with a large number of detection models in PyOD by leveraging SUOD framework [#Zhao2021SUOD]. See SUOD Paper <https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/yuezhao2/papers/21-mlsys-suod.pdf> and SUOD example <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/examples/suod_example.py>_.

.. code-block:: python

from pyod.models.suod import SUOD

# initialized a group of outlier detectors for acceleration
detector_list = [LOF(n_neighbors=15), LOF(n_neighbors=20),
                 LOF(n_neighbors=25), LOF(n_neighbors=35),
                 COPOD(), IForest(n_estimators=100),
                 IForest(n_estimators=200)]

# decide the number of parallel process, and the combination method
# then clf can be used as any outlier detection model
clf = SUOD(base_estimators=detector_list, n_jobs=2, combination='average',
           verbose=False)

Thresholding Outlier Scores ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A more data-based approach can be taken when setting the contamination level. By using a thresholding method, guessing an arbitrary value can be replaced with tested techniques for separating inliers and outliers. Refer to PyThresh <https://github.com/KulikDM/pythresh>_ for a more in-depth look at thresholding.

.. code-block:: python

from pyod.models.knn import KNN
from pyod.models.thresholds import FILTER

# Set the outlier detection and thresholding methods
clf = KNN(contamination=FILTER())

See supported thresholding methods in thresholding <https://github.com/yzhao062/pyod/blob/master/docs/thresholding.rst>_.
