Deep Semi-supervised Anomaly Detection with Metapath-based Context Knowledge
share
Graph anomaly detection has attracted considerable attention in recent years. This paper introduces a novel approach that leverages metapath-based semi-supervised learning, addressing the limitations of previous methods. We present a new framework, Metapath-based Semi-supervised Anomaly Detection (MSAD), incorporating GCN layers in both the encoder and decoder to efficiently propagate context information between abnormal and normal nodes. The design of metapath-based context information and a specifically crafted anomaly community enhance the process of learning differences in structures and attributes, both globally and locally. Through a comprehensive set of experiments conducted on seven real-world networks, this paper demonstrates the superiority of the MSAD method compared to state-of-the-art techniques. The promising results of this study pave the way for future investigations, focusing on the optimization and analysis of metapath patterns to further enhance the effectiveness of anomaly detection on attributed networks.
