Anomaly detection

Anomaly detection uses rules, statistics, or AI and Machine Learning to identify behavior that differs from an established or learned pattern.

Practical guidance

Anomaly detection

An anomaly is not automatically a fault. A change in load, speed, product, maintenance state, sensor health, or environment may also produce unusual data.

A useful industrial anomaly workflow preserves the evidence, compares operating context, and routes the exception to a qualified reviewer before high-consequence action.

Key points

  • Define normal by operating state
  • Check the sensor and context first
  • Treat anomalies as evidence, not diagnoses
  • Measure false alarms and missed events
