A new research paper questions the validity of current benchmarks used for multivariate time series anomaly detection (MT-SAD) models. The study reveals that anomalies in these benchmarks are predominantly univariate, meaning they affect individual data channels rather than complex cross-channel relationships. The authors propose a diagnostic framework to analyze anomaly types and conclude that existing datasets are insufficient for evaluating models designed to detect cross-channel anomalies, advocating for the development of more structurally diverse evaluation sets.
