Ask HN: Why is there not unsupervised anomaly detection module in python

[dice89]

Hi Folks, I just asked me the question tons of times. Why it seems to be that there is no real unsupervised anomaly detection library in python. Aren't these techniques used anymore, or is there simply nobody thinking about implementing this?

I'm thinking about some algorithms as shown here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomaly_detection

Looking forward to your opinions.

Seems like there are at least a few of those algorithms in scikit-learn:

Ok nice good to know that they will include some of the stuff in the new versions
