Abstract

Anomaly detection refers to the problem of finding rare patterns in data which raise suspicions because they do not comply with an expected behavior. We can consider different kinds of applications like intrusion detection, image processing, system health monitoring and sensor networks. For example, an anomalous pattern coming from sensors on a machine could mean that the machine is ready to break. 
Most of the current studies on anomaly detection do not consider recent/past events to detect possible new incoming outliers. The use of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks is then proposed to deal with time dependent data related with anomaly detection problems.
The goal of Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) is to describe a realistic domain for the data, excluding superfluous space. The resulting boundary can then be used to detect outliers.

In this master thesis, we consider a LSTM-based prediction model for sensor readings coming from a pulp and paper manufacturing machine. Anomalies will then result from too large prediction errors. We compare the SVDD and a discrimination rule based on the assumption of normality for the errors. In the final chapter, we show that for a real world applications the Gaussian distribution for the errors cannot hold and that the need of a non-parametric data descriptions using kernels is real.

Abstract

The stratospheric ozone is important for the protection of the biosphere from the dangerous ultraviolet radiation of the sun, forms the temperature and dynamical structure of the stratosphere, and, therefore, has a direct influence on the general circulation and the surface climate. The tropospheric ozone can damage the biosphere, impact human health, and plays a role as a powerful greenhouse gas. That is why the understanding of the past and future evolution of the ozone in different atmospheric layers, as well as its influence on surface UV radiation doses, and human health is important. The problems of preventing further destruction of the ozone layer, the restoration of the ozone shield in the future, and air quality remain important for society. The interest in these problems was recently enhanced by the unexpected discovery of a negative ozone trend in the lower stratosphere and the appearance of a large ozone hole over the Arctic in spring 2020. This book includes papers describing several aspects of the ozone layer’s state and evolution based on the recent experimental, statistical, and modeling works. The book will be useful for readers, scientists, and students interested in environmental science.

Abstract

The introduction of new topologies and training procedures to deep neural networks has solicited a renewed interest in the field of neural computation. The use of deep structures has significantly improved state-of-the-art applications in many fields, such as computer vision, speech and text processing, medical applications, and IoT (Internet of Things). The probability of a successful outcome from a neural network is linked to selection of an appropriate network architecture and training algorithm. Accordingly, much of the recent research on neural networks has been devoted to the study and proposal of novel architectures, including solutions tailored to specific problems. This book gives significant contributions to the above-mentioned fields by merging theoretical aspects and relevant applications.
