用轻量级预过滤提升时间序列异常检测效率,快2.7到4.8倍
CARE: A Cascaded Framework for Efficient and Reliable Time Series Anomaly Detection
- 分层推理:先用轻量模型快速筛出确定正常数据,只让可疑数据进复杂模型
- 在8个真实数据集上实现2.7至4.8倍加速,检测精度仍保持领先
- 适合需要高吞吐、低延迟的工业监控场景,如设备故障预警
尽管深度学习模型在时间序列异常检测中已达到最先进水平,但其复杂架构带来巨大推理开销。现有方法对所有数据点采用统一推理策略,而异常本身稀少,绝大多数数据为可预测的正常模式,造成效率浪费。为此,我们提出CARE,一种与模型无关的分层推理框架,将轻量预过滤模型(LPM)与高容量检测模型(CDM)结合。LPM通过残差MLP自编码器和正常性条件门控机制,快速筛选高置信度的正常样本。关键创新在于引入结构注意力模块,显式捕捉通道级异常贡献,并通过置信度引导的选择性路由目标优化门控网络,学习可靠的路由决策,减少不必要的CDM调用。在八个真实世界基准上的大量实验表明,CARE能有效隔离高置信度正常样本。仅将不确定样本路由至CDM,相比最准确的SOTA方法,推理速度提升2.7至4.8倍,同时保持竞争力的检测质量。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
While deep learning models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in time series anomaly detection, their complex architectures incur substantial inference overhead. Existing methods typically apply a uniform inference strategy across all data points, which is inefficient given that anomalies are inherently scarce and the vast majority of temporal data consists of predictable normal patterns. To mitigate this bottleneck, we propose CARE, a model-agnostic cascaded inference framework that integrates a Lightweight Pre-filter Model (LPM) with an existing high-capacity Complex Detection Model (CDM). The LPM rapidly filters high-confidence normal samples using a Residual MLP AutoEncoder and a Normality-Conditioned Gating mechanism. Crucially, we introduce a Structure Attention module to explicitly capture channel-wise anomaly contributions, and optimize the gating network via a confidence-guided selective routing objective that learns reliable routing decisions to reduce unnecessary CDM invocations. Extensive experiments across eight real-world benchmarks demonstrate that CARE effectively isolates high-confidence normal samples. By routing only uncertain samples to the CDM, our framework achieves $2.7\times$ to $4.8\times$ inference speedup compared to the most accurate SOTA approaches, while still maintaining competitive detection quality.
