The novel anomaly detection framework combines robust statistical principles of density-estimation-based methods with deep learning models’ representation-learning capabilities. The method is presented in two versions: a shallow approach using adaptive Fourier features and density matrices, and a deep approach integrating an autoencoder to learn data representations. Both methods estimate normality scores by calculating sample densities. The framework can be optimized using gradient-based techniques and seamlessly integrated into end-to-end architectures. Experiments on various benchmark datasets demonstrate comparable or superior performance of both versions compared to state-of-the-art methods.

This paper introduces a new way to find unusual data points, called anomalies, in large datasets. It combines two types of machine learning: statistical methods that calculate how common each point is, and deep learning models that learn patterns in the data. The approach has two versions: one simple version using mathematical formulas to estimate normality scores, and another complex version that uses autoencoders to learn a lower-dimensional representation of the data. Both versions can be used together and optimized for better performance. Tests on various datasets show that this new method performs as well or even better than current state-of-the-art methods.
