System and method for machine learning based anomaly detection

Abstract

A computerized system and method may process and detect anomalies in input data using of machine learning models and techniques. A computerized system comprising one or more processors, a memory, and a communication interface to communicate via a communication network with remote computing devices, may be used for assembling a signal based on event data items; calculating an anomaly score for the signal, which may describe a change or difference between the signal and past signals; generating an alert based on the calculated score; presenting the alert on an output computer display; and allowing or reversing data transfers performed over a communication network between physically separate computer systems based on the anomaly score. Some embodiments of the invention may include performing peer anomaly detection context anomaly detection as two separate and distinct anomaly detection procedures, using separate and distinct machine learning models and algorithms.
