MSCENet: A Multi-Scale Correlation Enhanced Network for Anomaly Detection
About
In the field of multivariate time series anomaly detection, against the backdrop of increasing data complexity and complex dependencies across multiple temporal scales, traditional methods often struggle to simultaneously capture temporal dynamic features and intricate inter-series correlations. To address this, we propose an innovative framework, MSCENet, which leverages advanced spatio-temporal learning and multi-scale learning techniques to enhance detection accuracy. MSCENet includes a fine-grained temporal convolution module that captures complex temporal dependencies through dilated convolutions, enabling the detection of both short- and long-term patterns. Additionally, the framework models inter-series relationships as a graph structure, using Mixhop graph convolutions to adaptively capture spatial dependencies across varying time scales. To support robust anomaly detection, the multi-scale gated convolution module in MSCENet integrates spatial and temporal attributes through gated mechanisms, facilitating the detection of subtle variations across multiple scales. Experimental evaluations on real-world datasets: SMD, PSM, and SWaT. It provides an adaptable and high-performance solution for anomaly detection in complex time series data environments.
