IsoTree Ruby

🌲 IsoTree - outlier/anomaly detection using Isolation Forest - for Ruby

🌳 Check out OutlierTree for human-readable explanations of outliers

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem "isotree"

Windows is not supported at the moment

Getting Started

Prep your data

data = [
  {department: "Books",  sale: false, price: 2.50},
  {department: "Books",  sale: true,  price: 3.00},
  {department: "Movies", sale: false, price: 5.00},
  # ...
]

Train a model

model = IsoTree::IsolationForest.new
model.fit(data)

Get outlier scores

model.predict(data)

Scores are between 0 and 1, with higher scores indicating outliers

Export the model

model.export_model("model.bin")

Import a model

model = IsoTree::IsolationForest.import_model("model.bin")

Parameters

Pass parameters - default values below

IsoTree::IsolationForest.new(
  sample_size: "auto",

Data

Data can be an array of hashes

[
  {department: "Books",  sale: false, price: 2.50},
  {department: "Books",  sale: true,  price: 3.00},
  {department: "Movies", sale: false, price: 5.00}
]

Or a Rover data frame

Rover.read_csv("data.csv")

Or a Numo array

Numo::NArray.cast([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]])

Performance

IsoTree uses OpenMP when possible for best performance. To enable OpenMP on Mac, run:

brew install libomp

Then reinstall the gem.

gem uninstall isotree --force
bundle install

Deployment

Check out Trove for deploying models.

trove push model.bin

Reference

Get the average isolation depth

model.predict(data, output: "avg_depth")
