Deep Positive-Unlabeled Anomaly Detection for Contaminated Unlabeled Data

The paper introduces a deep positive‑unlabeled anomaly detection framework that combines positive‑unlabeled learning with deep models such as autoencoders and deep support vector data descriptions. It addresses the issue of contaminated unlabeled data by approximating anomaly scores for normal data using both unlabeled and labeled anomaly samples, allowing training without labeled normal data. The authors provide a theoretical generalization error bound and demonstrate improved detection performance over existing methods on several datasets.
