Enhancing Computational Efficiency in Anomaly Detection with a Cascaded Machine Learning Model

This thesis presents and evaluates a new cascading machine learning model framework for anomaly detection, which are essential for modern industrial applications where computing efficiency is crucial. Traditional deep learning algorithms frequently struggle to effectively deploy in edge computing due to the limitations of processing power and memory. This study addresses the challenge by creating a cascading model framework that strategically combines lightweight and more complex models to improve the efficiency of inference while maintaining the accuracy of detection.  We proposed a cascading model framework consisting of a One-Class Support Vector Machine (OCSVM) for rapid initial anomaly detection and a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) for more precise prediction in uncertain cases. The cascading technique between the OCSVM and VAE enables the system to efficiently handle regular data instances, while assigning more complex analyses only when required. This framework was tested in real-world scenarios, including anomaly detection in air pressure system of automotive industry as well as with the MNIST datasets. These tests demonstrate the framework's practical applicability and effectiveness across diverse settings, underscoring its potential for broad implementation in industrial applications.
