📄 Abstract - CAAD: Causality-Aware Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Detection via Multi-Scale Alignment and Structural Causal Consistency

The operational integrity of complex industrial systems relies on precise anomaly detection and diagnosis. The vast majority of existing methods narrowly focus on capturing temporal similarities of representations, often overlooking the disruption of internal causal relationships, which characterizes system failures and latent anomalies. In this paper, we propose a novel framework (CAAD) that reframes anomaly detection as the continuous verification of Granger causality consistency through exogenous variables. Specifically, the CAAD framework models exogenous time-series variables as residuals, identifying anomalies as significant deviations caused by external interventions. The proposed framework leverages multi-scale alignment to internalize system dynamics and utilizes a gradient-based matrix to monitor internal causal relationship breakdowns. By quantifying causal deviations of both dynamic evolution and relational topology, the CAAD is able to capture subtle causal shifts to achieve precise anomaly detection. Extensive experiments on real-world industrial datasets demonstrate that the CAAD achieves high-precision anomaly detection, outperforming most state-of-the-art baselines.

1️⃣ 一句话总结

该论文提出一种名为CAAD的异常检测框架,不再只关注数据表面模式的相似性,而是通过分析变量之间的因果关系是否被破坏来发现异常,就像系统正常运行时各部件有稳定的相互影响链条,而故障或异常会打断这些链条,CAAD能精准捕捉这种细微的变化,从而在工业系统数据中比现有方法更准确地检测出异常。
