Outlier detection techniques for wireless sensor networks: A survey
In the field of wireless sensor networks, those measurements that significantly deviate from the normal pattern of sensed data are considered as outliers. The potential sources of outliers include noise and errors, events, and malicious attacks on the network. Traditional outlier detection techniques are not directly applicable to wireless sensor networks due to the nature of sensor data and specific requirements and limitations of the wireless sensor networks. This survey provides a comprehensive overview of existing outlier detection techniques specifically developed for the wireless sensor networks. Additionally, it presents a technique-based taxonomy and a comparative table to be used as a guideline to select a technique suitable for the application at hand based on characteristics such as data type, outlier type, outlier identity, and outlier degree
Outlier Detection Techniques For Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
In the field of wireless sensor networks, measurements that
significantly deviate from the normal pattern of sensed data are
considered as outliers. The potential sources of outliers include
noise and errors, events, and malicious attacks on the network.
Traditional outlier detection techniques are not directly
applicable to wireless sensor networks due to the multivariate
nature of sensor data and specific requirements and limitations of
the wireless sensor networks. This survey provides a comprehensive
overview of existing outlier detection techniques specifically
developed for the wireless sensor networks. Additionally, it
presents a technique-based taxonomy and a decision tree to be used
as a guideline to select a technique suitable for the application
at hand based on characteristics such as data type, outlier type,
outlier degree
What is the Connection Between Issues, Bugs, and Enhancements? (Lessons Learned from 800+ Software Projects)
Agile teams juggle multiple tasks so professionals are often assigned to
multiple projects, especially in service organizations that monitor and
maintain a large suite of software for a large user base. If we could predict
changes in project conditions changes, then managers could better adjust the
staff allocated to those projects.This paper builds such a predictor using data
from 832 open source and proprietary applications. Using a time series analysis
of the last 4 months of issues, we can forecast how many bug reports and
enhancement requests will be generated next month. The forecasts made in this
way only require a frequency count of this issue reports (and do not require an
historical record of bugs found in the project). That is, this kind of
predictive model is very easy to deploy within a project. We hence strongly
recommend this method for forecasting future issues, enhancements, and bugs in
a project.Comment: Accepted to 2018 International Conference on Software Engineering, at
