**Unlocking the Power of Edge AI Anomaly Detection with K-Ne

Unlocking the Power of Edge AI Anomaly Detection with K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN)

In today's era of IoT and real-time data streaming, Edge AI has emerged as a game-changer in anomaly detection. By processing data on the edge, we can significantly reduce latency and improve real-time decision-making. In this post, we'll explore how to leverage K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) for anomaly detection on the edge.

What is K-NN?

K-NN is a popular machine learning algorithm that works by identifying the most similar data points to a new input. In the context of anomaly detection, K-NN can be used to identify data points that are significantly different from the majority.

Code Example


python
import numpy as np
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier

# Load and normalize data
X = np.random.rand(100, 5) * 10  # 100 data points with 5 features each
y = (np.random.rand(100) > 0.5).astype(int)  # 0 or 1 labels for anomaly or normal data

# Split data into training (80%) ...
