A Dilated Transformer Network for Time Series Anomaly Detection
Bo Wu, Zhenjie Yao, Yanhui Tu, Yixin Chen · 2022
Unsupervised anomaly detection for time series has been an active research area due to its enormous potential for wireless network management. Existing works have made extraordinary progress in time series representation, reconstruction and forecasting. However, long-term temporal patterns prohibit the model from learning reliable dependencies. To this end, we propose a novel approach based on Transformer with dilated convolution for time anomaly detection. Specifically, we provide a dilated convolution module to extract long-term dependence features. Extensive experiments on various public benchmarks demonstrate that our method has achieved the state-of-the-art performance.
