RegraphGAN: A graph generative adversarial network model for dynamic network anomaly detection.

Due to the wide application of dynamic graph anomaly detection in cybersecurity, social networks, e-commerce, etc., research in this area has received increasing attention. Graph generative adversarial networks can be used in dynamic graph anomaly detection due to their ability to model complex data, but the original graph generative adversarial networks do not have a method to learn reverse mapping and require an expensive process in recovering the potential representation of a given input. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel graph generative adversarial network by adding encoders to map real data to latent space to improve the training efficiency and stability of graph generative adversarial network models, which is named RegraphGAN in this paper. And this paper proposes a dynamic network anomaly edge detection method by combining RegraphGAN with spatiotemporal coding to solve the complex dynamic graph data and the problem of attribute-free node information coding challenges. Meanwhile, anomaly detection experiments are conducted on six real dynamic network datasets, and the results show that the dynamic network anomaly detection method proposed in this paper outperforms other existing methods.
