Industrial Machinery Anomaly Detection
This example applies various anomaly detection approaches to operating data from an industrial machine. Specifically it covers:
- Extracting relevant features from industrial vibration timeseries data using the Diagnostic Feature Designer app
- Anomaly detection using several statistical, machine learning, and deep learning techniques, including:
- LSTM-based autoencoders
- One-class SVM
- Isolation forest
- Robust covariance and Mahalanobis distance
Setup
This demo is implemented as a MATLAB® project and will require you to open the project to run it. The project will manage all paths and shortcuts you need.
To Run:
- Open the MATLAB Project
AnomalyDetection.prj - Open Parts 1-3 on the Project Shortcuts tab
