One-Class SVM: Learn a Kernel Boundary Around Normal Data for Novelty Detection
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
Most anomaly detectors describe the normal data and flag whatever doesn't fit the description. The Elliptic Envelope fits one Gaussian ellipse; the Local Outlier Factor compares each point's local density to its neighbours'; the Isolation Forest counts how few random cuts isolate a point. The One-Class SVM does something different: it takes the max-margin idea from a regular SVM and turns it inward, learning a curved frontier that wraps the support of the data as tightly as it can — then calls…
