MIDASwrappeR

R Wrapper around C++ implementation by Siddharth Bhatia

Installation

You can install the released version of MIDASwrappeR from CRAN with:

install.packages("MIDASwrappeR")

And the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("pteridin/MIDASwrappeR")

Table of Contents

Features

  • Finds Anomalies in Dynamic/Time-Evolving Graphs
  • Detects Microcluster Anomalies (suddenly arriving groups of suspiciously similar edges e.g. DoS attack)
  • Theoretical Guarantees on False Positive Probability
  • Constant Memory (independent of graph size)
  • Constant Update Time (real-time anomaly detection to minimize harm)
  • Up to 48% more accurate and 644 times faster than the state of the art approaches

For more details, please read the paper - MIDAS: Microcluster-Based Detector of Anomalies in Edge Streams. Siddharth Bhatia, Bryan Hooi, Minji Yoon, Kijung Shin, Christos Faloutsos. AAAI 2020.

Use Cases

  1. Intrusion Detection
  2. Fake Ratings
  3. Financial Fraud

Example

library(MIDASwrappeR)
data("MIDASexample")
getMIDASScore(MIDASexample, undirected = T)

A vignette to explain how this package works is included.
