Anomaly detection is often applied to data stored in relational databases, yet most existing methods require flattening multiple tables into a single feature matrix. This flattening can obscure entity...
arXiv:2605. 22779v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Production systems generate millions of log lines daily, yet most anomaly detectors operate at the session or window-level, flagging groups of lines rather than identifying the specific message responsible.

MAADBench is a refreshable benchmark for anomaly detection in multi‑agent systems powered by large language models. It addresses the challenge of keeping benchmarks current by sampling and coupling generative tasks, generating trace data under configurable LLM backbones, and automatically providing deterministic step‑level labels. The authors evaluated 25 anomaly‑detection methods on 5,200 labeled traces, finding that existing approaches depend heavily on supervision, struggle with subtle MAS‑specific anomalies, and lack robustness across different LLM backbones.

arXiv:2608. 19938v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing approaches to anomalous behaviour log detection, such as Wazuh rely primarily on predefined detection rules, while statistical anomaly detection approaches such as OpenSearch identify deviations from previously observed behavioural patterns.

The paper presents a simple detector for model extraction attacks on large language model APIs. It frames detection as a benign‑calibrated traffic‑window distribution test, embedding queries into a semantic space and using maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) to compare against historical benign traffic. Evaluated on fourteen attacker‑normal query pairs across four extraction scenarios, MMD achieves near‑perfect true‑positive rates while maintaining a 0.3% false‑positive rate, outperforming several existing baselines.

The paper investigates how different adaptation strategies, model architectures, parameter scales, and quantization settings influence the performance, efficiency, and robustness of large language models (LLMs) for log anomaly detection. Across three public log datasets, the study finds that adaptation strategies lead to significant performance variations, model scaling offers dataset‑dependent gains, and models with similar accuracy can differ markedly in computational cost. Low‑bit quantization largely preserves detection performance, and the authors also assess robustness to structural, semantic, and label noise at varying perturbation levels.
