VARADE: a Variational-based AutoRegressive model for Anomaly Detection on the Edge

In an industrial CPS scenario, the most crucial resource is the availability of data reflecting the different aspects of production. Detecting complex anomalies on massive amounts of data is a crucial Such data consist of multiple interdependent variables rapidly evolving task in Industry 4.0, best addressed by deep learning. However, over time, thus falling under the typical definition of Multivariate available solutions are computationally demanding, requiring cloud Time Series (MTS) [14]. After collection, the time series, originated architectures prone to latency and bandwidth issues. This work by heterogeneous sensors and data sources, are integrated presents VARADE, a novel solution implementing a light autoregressive through Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technologies and made framework based on variational inference, which is best available for anomaly detection, visualization, and analysis [27].
