# Functional Anomaly Detection and Robust Estimation
- Contaminated data and production line → robust learning, anomaly detection
- Median-of-means, median-of-U
- Data depth: non-parametric statistic which measures the centrality of an element.
- Affine-invariant
- Maximal at symmetry center
- Monotone on rays
- Vanishing at infinity
- AI-IRW
- Functional data depth: centrality of probability distribution
- Functional isolation forest
- Global perspectives:
- More reliable neural networks
- Adversarial attack detection and defense, out-of-distribution detection
