University of Nova Gorica

They had a project for the European Space Agency and they wanted to develop new anomaly detection methods in satellite observatory data to reduce the number of false positive alerts and possibly detect new true positive alerts.

Problem

Missing know-how in anomaly detection and database management.

Solution

Pre-process the data, develop a new method for anomaly detection, use information retrieval methods to optimize the parameters of the method. Create a database and prepare scripts to automatically fill it with relevant data.
