Data transformations (e.g. rotations, reflections, and cropping) play an important role in self-supervised learning. Typically, images are transformed into different views, and neural networks trained on tasks involving these views produce useful feature representations for downstream tasks, including anomaly detection. However, for anomaly detection beyond image data, it is often unclear which transformations to use. Here we present a simple end-to-end procedure for anomaly detection with learnable transformations. The key idea is to embed the transformed data into a semantic space such that the transformed data still resemble their untransformed form, while different transformations are easily distinguishable. Extensive experiments on time series demonstrate that we significantly outperform existing methods on the one-vs.-rest setting but also on the more challenging n-vs.-rest anomaly-detection task. On tabular datasets from the medical and cyber-security domains, our method learns domain-specific transformations and detects anomalies more accurately than previous work.
