Anomaly Detection Learning Resources

A reading list of books, courses, papers, datasets and tools for finding unusual data with AI.

New this week

What it does

Anomaly detection means finding the odd ones out in data, such as a fraudulent card payment, a network break-in or a faulty machine part. This list gathers learning material on the subject.

It includes books and tutorials, online courses and videos, test datasets, open-source and commercial tools, key conferences, and research papers. Its maker says it has been updated with recent work using large language models and vision models.

Who it's for

Students, researchers and data professionals learning about outlier and fraud detection.
