Detect outliers with 3 methods: LOF, DBSCAN and one-class SVM

• Required packages can be installed with the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

• consumption_data.xls is provided. There are 4 columns with 940 entries. The first column denotes entry ID, which is ignored in detecting outliers. Therefore, the data entries are 3-dimensional.
• Get numpy array data with size [940, 3] with the following code (check out dataset.py for implementation):

from dataset import get_dataset

data = get_dataset()

• Data visualization:

For detailed descriptions please see report.pdf.

• Check out lof.py for implementation.
