AbstractOHODIN is an online extension for data streams of the kNN-based ODIN anomaly detection approach. It provides a detection-threshold heuristic that is based on extreme value theory. In contrast to sophisticated anomaly and novelty detection approaches the decision-making process of ODIN is interpretable by humans, making it interesting for certain applications. However, it is limited in terms of the underlying detection method. In this article, we present an extension of the OHODIN to further detection techniques to reinforce OHODIN capability of online data streams anomaly detection. We introduce the algorithm modifications and an experimental evaluation with competing state-of-the-art anomaly detection approaches.
