Deep anomaly detection methods have seen significant advancements recently, with techniques like Stacked Autoencoders, Variational Autoencoders, and Generative Adversarial Networks significantly improving the state-of-the-art. To further boost performance, researchers are exploring self-supervised learning approaches tailored for text corpora. This thesis develops a method that leverages pretext tasks to detect anomalies in text data, achieving superior results on two benchmark datasets (20Newsgroups and AG News) for both semi-supervised and unsupervised settings.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Anomaly detection is a way to find unusual patterns in data. Some really smart methods have been developed recently, like Stacked Autoencoders and Variational Autoencoders. Researchers are now exploring new ideas called self-supervised learning. They’re trying to use these ideas to improve anomaly detection for text data. This helps us find weird or unexpected things in texts. The method they came up with worked really well on two sets of data, 20Newsgroups and AG News.
