Guest Editorial Introduction to the Special Issue on Anomaly Detection in Emerging Data-Driven Applications: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications

We are delighted to present this special issue on Anomaly Detection in Emerging Data-Driven Applications: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications. Anomaly detection plays an important part of knowledge and data engineering, such as cybersecurity, fintech, healthcare, public security and AI safety. However, large amounts of data have been generated through different types of objects, and it brings new challenges for anomaly detection research. The purpose of this special issue is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their latest research findings and engineering experiences in the theoretical foundations, empirical studies, and novel applications.
