  3. Event Detection Biosurveillance Example: Detect if there is a disease outbreak in a city as early as possible Approach: Monitor the total number of Emergency Department visit in the city each day.

  4. Event Detection • Obtain Emergency Department data from the past year • Fit a Gaussian to this data • Raise an alert when the daily number of ED visits exceeds a threshold x 0 35 50

  5. Event Detection • An interesting event occurs when the # of ED visits per day exceeds the threshold. • If it corresponds to a real disease outbreak, it is a true positive. Otherwise, it is a false positive.

  6. Model “Interesting” Events and their Detection Data Problem/ Environment Problem/ Environment Event Detection Process Decisions Knowledge Our World

  7. Interesting Events With Respect To… Model learned from x1 – x100, and on expert/prior knowledge P(x) x 0 100 50

  8. Interesting Events with Respect To… Events of Interest are observations withlikelihood  (very small?) of occurrence with respect to • The model M that is believed to have generated the observations • The other observations X that are available • P( xi | M, X ) = p

  9. Complex Forms of Data JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) -- Researchers scouring swamps in the heart of Borneo island have discovered a venomous species of snake that can change its skin color, the conservation group WWF announced Tuesday. The ability to change skin color is known in some reptiles, such as the chameleon, but scientists have seen it rarely with snakes and have not yet understood this phenomenon, the group said in a statement.. . .

  10. Event Detection Tasks • Intrusion detection / network security • Security monitoring • Fraud detection • Biosurveillance • Traffic incident detection • Detection of interesting differences between images • Detection of potential causes for instability in dynamic systems or control loops • Quality control in manufacturing • Topic detection • Sensor network monitoring • Aircraft / train / vehicle maintenance monitoring • Fault detection • Activity monitoring • Supernova detection • Weather modeling • Data cleaning • Detection of regions of increased brain activity from fMRI data • And many more…

  11. Event detection is difficult or time consuming for human experts Interesting events are usually rare Detecting an interesting event can have a significant impact Difficult to capture all the conditions that make an event “interesting” Evaluation of algorithms is difficult Features Shared by MostEvent Detection Tasks

  12. Not Typical Machine Learning • Standard supervised learning approaches are unsatisfactory: • few or no positive examples, plenty of negatives • new forms of interesting events appear • Standard unsupervised learning approaches are unsatisfactory: • skewed distributions • in many cases, not just looking for outliers

  13. Standard MLEvent Detection Approaches • One-class classification of “normal” observations; every other instance considered a potential “important event” • Unsupervised clustering + post processing • Multi-Stage Event Detection: a standard ML approach + filtering of false positives + • Incorporation of background knowledge

  14. Research Questions • Event Detection approaches for complex data (video, text, spatio-temporal, relational) • Sensor fusion • Incorporating domain knowledge into the detection models • Validation and testing of Event Detection Algorithms & Tools: • Statistical tests • Testbeds for anomaly detection systems • Online Event Detection • Defining the “interestingness” of an event (active learning?) • Explaining why an event is interesting • Effective visualization techniques • Event Detection in adversarial environments
