Abstract
Mining outliers in graph data is a rapidly growing area of research. Traditional methods focus either on static graphs, or restrict relationships to be pairwise. In this work we address both of these limitations directly, and propose the first approach for mining outliers in hyperedge streams. Hyperedges, which generalize edges, faithfully capture higher order relationships that naturally occur in complex systems. Our model annotates every incoming hyperedge with an outlier score, which is based on the incident vertices and the historical relationships among them. Additionally, we describe an approximation scheme that ensures our model is suitable for being run in streaming environments. Experimental results on several real-world datasets show our model effectively identifies outliers, and that our approximation provides speedups between 33–775x.

Notes
- 1.
To handle the first object in the stream we take the score to be 1. Another approach is to use \(m+1\) in the denominator, which as the stream grows is approximately equal to using m.
- 2.
We use the uppercase MinHash when referring to the scheme, and the lowercase minhash when referring to a computed value.
