Abstract
SummaryDetecting anomalies in manufacturing processes is crucial for ensuring safety. However, noise significantly undermines the reliability of data‐driven anomaly detection models. To address this challenge, we propose a slow feature‐constrained decomposition autoencoder (SFC‐DAE) for anomaly detection in noisy scenarios. Considering that the process can exhibit both long‐term trends and periodic properties, the process data is decomposed into trends and cycles. The repetitive information is mitigated by slicing and randomly masking certain trends and cycles. Dependencies among slices are constructed to extract intrinsic information, while high‐frequency noise is reduced using a slow feature‐constrained loss. Anomalies are detected and localized through a reconstruction error strategy. The effectiveness of SFC‐DAE is demonstrated using data from a sugar factory and a secure water treatment system.
