我们尝试在我们的数据集上使用平滑的z-score算法，这导致了过度敏感或不敏感(取决于参数如何调整)，几乎没有中间地带。在我们站点的交通信号中，我们观察到一个低频基线，它代表了每天的周期，即使有最好的可能参数(如下所示)，它仍然在第4天下降，特别是因为大多数数据点被认为是异常的。

在原始z-score算法的基础上，我们提出了一种通过反向滤波来解决这个问题的方法。改进后的算法及其在电视商业流量归因中的应用详见我们的团队博客。

这是一个Python实现的鲁棒峰值检测算法算法。

初始化和计算部分被分开，只有filtered_y数组被保留，它的最大大小等于延迟，因此内存没有增加。(结果与上述答案相同)。 为了绘制图形，还保留了标签数组。

This problem looks similar to one I encountered in a hybrid/embedded systems course, but that was related to detecting faults when the input from a sensor is noisy. We used a Kalman filter to estimate/predict the hidden state of the system, then used statistical analysis to determine the likelihood that a fault had occurred. We were working with linear systems, but nonlinear variants exist. I remember the approach being surprisingly adaptive, but it required a model of the dynamics of the system.
