A fast MST-inspired kNN-based outlier detection method

作者:

Highlights:

• A new k-nearest neighbors (kNN) based outlier detection scheme is proposed.

• It is built upon two new MST-inspired outlier scores, a global one and a local one.

• A set of state-of-the-art outlier detectors are applied to some high dimensional data.

• A fast approximate kNN search algorithm is used to accelerate the mining process.

• The proposed method can provide competing performances with existing solutions.
