  text: Discerning unexpected from expected data patterns is the key challenge of
    anomaly detection. Although a multitude of solutions has been applied to this
    modern Industry 4.0 problem, it remains an open research issue to identify the
    key characteristics subjacent to an anomaly, sc. generate hypothesis as to why
    they appear. In recent years, machine learning models have been regarded as universal
    solution for a wide range of problems. While most of them suffer from non-self-explanatory
    representations, Gaussian Processes (GPs) deliver interpretable and robust statistical
    data models, which are able to cope with unreliable, noisy, or partially missing
    data. Thus, we regard them as a suitable solution for detecting and appropriately
    representing anomalies and their respective characteristics. In this position
    paper, we discuss the problem of automatic and interpretable anomaly detection
    by means of GPs. That is, we elaborate on why GPs are well suited for anomaly
    detection and what the current challenges are when applying these probabilistic
    models to large-scale production data.

  text: Along with the constantly increasing complexity of industrial automation systems,
    machine learning methods have been widely applied to detecting abnormal states
    in such systems. Anomaly detection tasks can be treated as one-class classification
    problems in machine learning. Geometric methods can give an intuitive solution
    to such problems. In this paper, we propose a new geometric structure, oriented
    non-convex hulls, to represent decision boundaries used for one-class classification.
    Based on this geometric structure, a novel boundary based one-class classification
    algorithm is developed to solve the anomaly detection problem. Compared with traditional
    boundary-based approaches such as convex hulls based methods and one-class support
    vector machines, the proposed approach can better reflect the true geometry of
    target data and needs little effort for parameter tuning. The effectiveness of
    this approach is evaluated with artificial and real world data sets to solve the
    anomaly detection problem in Cyber-Physical-Production-Systems (CPPS). The evaluation
    results also show that the proposed approach has higher generality than the used
    baseline algorithms.

  text: "Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPSs) are in the focus of research, industry
    and politics: By applying new IT and new computer science solutions, production
    systems will become more adaptable, more resource ef- ficient and more user friendly.
    The analysis and diagnosis of such systems is a major part of this trend: Plants
    should detect automatically wear, faults and suboptimal configurations. This paper
    reflects the current state-of- the-art in diagnosis against the requirements of
    CPPSs, identifies three main gaps and gives application scenarios to outline first
    ideas for potential solutions to close these gaps.\r\n"
