Overview
Orion is a machine learning library built for unsupervised time series anomaly detection. With a given time series data, we provide a number of “verified” ML pipelines (a.k.a Orion pipelines) that identify rare patterns and flag them for expert review.
The library makes use of a number of automated machine learning tools developed under Data to AI Lab at MIT.

Quickstart
Install with pip
The easiest and recommended way to install Orion is using pip:
pip install orion-ml
This will pull and install the latest stable release from PyPi.
In the following example we show how to use one of the Orion Pipelines.
Fit an Orion pipeline
We will load a demo data for this example:
from orion.data import load_signal
train_data = load_signal('S-1-train')
train_data.head()
which should show a signal with timestamp
and value
.
timestamp value
0 1222819200 -0.366359
1 1222840800 -0.394108
2 1222862400 0.403625
3 1222884000 -0.362759
4 1222905600 -0.370746
In this example we use aer
pipeline and set some hyperparameters (in this case training epochs as 5).
from orion import Orion
hyperparameters = {
'orion.primitives.aer.AER#1': {
'epochs': 5,
'verbose': True
}
}
orion = Orion(
pipeline='aer',
hyperparameters=hyperparameters
)
orion.fit(train_data)
Detect anomalies using the fitted pipeline
Once it is fitted, we are ready to use it to detect anomalies in our incoming time series:
new_data = load_signal('S-1-new')
anomalies = orion.detect(new_data)
:warning: Depending on your system and the exact versions that you might have installed some WARNINGS may be printed. These can be safely ignored as they do not interfere with the proper behavior of the pipeline.
The output of the previous command will be a pandas.DataFrame
containing a table of detected anomalies:
start end severity
0 1402012800 1403870400 0.122539
Leaderboard
In every release, we run Orion benchmark. We maintain an up-to-date leaderboard with the current scoring of the verified pipelines according to the benchmarking procedure.
We run the benchmark on 12 datasets with their known grounth truth. We record the score of the pipelines on each datasets. To compute the leaderboard table, we showcase the number of wins each pipeline has over the ARIMA pipeline.
Pipeline | Outperforms ARIMA |
---|---|
AER | 11 |
TadGAN | 7 |
LSTM Dynamic Thresholding | 8 |
LSTM Autoencoder | 7 |
Dense Autoencoder | 7 |
VAE | 6 |
LNN | 7 |
Matrix Profile | 5 |
GANF | 5 |
Azure | 0 |
You can find the scores of each pipeline on every signal recorded in the details Google Sheets document. The summarized results can also be browsed in the following summary Google Sheets document.
