Σύνοψη	Autoencoder anomaly detection trains a neural network to compress and then reconstruct normal data. Because the model has only ever learned what normal looks like, anomalous inputs produce noticeably higher reconstruction errors — and those errors become the anomaly score. The method requires no labeled anomalies and scales naturally to high-dimensional data such as sensor streams, images, and log records.	Local Outlier Factor (LOF) is a density-based, unsupervised anomaly detection algorithm introduced by Breunig, Kriegel, Ng, and Sander in 2000. It assigns each data point a continuous outlier score that quantifies how isolated that point is relative to its local neighborhood, enabling detection of anomalies that global methods miss because they blend into dense clusters elsewhere in the space.
