Abstract: An approach to time-series data point anomaly detection may be presented. Data point anomalies in time-series data can cause a cascade of incorrect predictions in a time-series data prediction model. Presented herein may be an approach to decompose a time- series training data set into elementary components, such as seasonal, trend and residual. The approach may determine one or more confidence intervals for elementary components of data points including level shift, variance, and outlier. From these confidence intervals, new data points can be analyzed and identified as anomaly data points. The approach may also prevent anomaly data points from being incorporated into a time series data prediction model, reducing prediction error in the prediction model.
