Detecting Data Anomalies

Positioning

Treat this skill as an explicit/manual helper. In governed ML routing, anomaly-detection ownership normally belongs to scikit-learn.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• Reviewing outlier transactions, fraud candidates, sensor spikes, or rare failures
• Comparing isolation forest, one-class SVM, LOF, or threshold-based anomaly workflows
• Turning suspicious records into a shortlist for human inspection

Not For / Boundaries

• Null/duplicate/schema/range validation: use exploratory-data-analysis
• Full model training or end-to-end pipeline ownership: use scikit-learn or ml-pipeline-workflow
• Publication-grade figure production: use scientific-visualization
