Installation

The package is available in CRAN repository:

• https://cran.r-project.org/package=fpmoutliers

install.packages('fpmoutliers',dependencies=TRUE, repos="http://cran.us.r-project.org")

Development Version Installation

Package installation from GitHub:

library("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jaroslav-kuchar/fpmoutliers")

Usage

Basic example

library(fpmoutliers)
dataFrame <- read.csv(system.file("extdata", "fp-outlier-customer-data.csv", package = "fpmoutliers"))
model <- FPI(dataFrame, minSupport = 0.001)
dataFrame <- dataFrame[order(model$scores, decreasing = TRUE),]
print(dataFrame[1,]) # instance with the highest anomaly score
print(dataFrame[nrow(dataFrame),]) # instance with the lowest anomaly score

Experimental explanations

Graphical explanation using bar plots

Currently not suitable for large datasets - the plot is limited by the number of rows and columns of the input data.

library("fpmoutliers")
dataFrame <- read.csv(
     system.file("extdata", "fp-outlier-customer-data.csv", package = "fpmoutliers"))
model <- FPI(dataFrame, minSupport = 0.001)
# sort data by the anomaly score
dataFrame <- dataFrame[order(model$scores, decreasing = TRUE),]
visualizeInstance(dataFrame, 1) # instance with the highest anomaly score
visualizeInstance(dataFrame, nrow(dataFrame)) # instance with the lowest anomaly score

Textual explanation

library("fpmoutliers")
dataFrame <- read.csv(
     system.file("extdata", "fp-outlier-customer-data.csv", package = "fpmoutliers"))
model <- FPI(dataFrame, minSupport = 0.001)
# sort data by the anomaly score
dataFrame <- dataFrame[order(model$scores, decreasing = TRUE),]
# instance with the highest anomaly score
out <- describeInstance(dataFrame, model, 1)
# instance with the lowest anomaly score
out <- describeInstance(dataFrame, model, nrow(dataFrame))

Other available functionalities

Experimental automatic build

library("fpmoutliers")
data("iris")
model <- fpmoutliers::build(iris)

Save the model to an experimental PMML format

• Kuchar, Jaroslav et al. “Outlier (Anomaly) Detection Modelling in PMML.” RuleML+RR (2017).
• link

library(fpmoutliers)
library(XML)
dataFrame <- read.csv(system.file("extdata", "fp-outlier-customer-data.csv", package = "fpmoutliers"))
model <- FPI(dataFrame, minSupport = 0.001)
saveXML(generatePMML(model, dataFrame), "example_out.xml")

Model Output

All implemented methods return a list with following parameters: - minSupport - minimum support setting for frequent itemsets mining - maxlen - maximum length of frequent itemsets - model - frequent itemset model represented as itemsets-class - scores - outlier/anomaly scores for each observation/row of the input dataframe
