We proposetime-series aware precision andrecall, which are appropriate for evaluating anomaly detection methods in time-series data. In time-series data, an anomaly corresponds toa series of instances. The conventional metrics, however, overlook this characteristic, so they suffer from a problem of giving a high score to the method that only detects a long anomaly. To overcome the problem, our metrics consider thevariety of the detected anomalies to be more important through two scoring strategies,detection scoring (\ie, how many anomalies are detected) andportion scoring (\ie, how precisely each anomaly is detected). Moreover, our metrics concernambiguous instances, which indicate the instances labeled as 'normal' although they are affected by their precedent anomaly. Our metrics give smaller scores to those instances as they are likely to be anomalous. We demonstrate that our metrics are more suitable for time-series data compared to existing metrics by evaluations using a real-world dataset as well as several examples.\footnoteOur code and the detection results are available at: https://github.com/saurf4ng/TaPR.

The level of demand for bare-metal cloud services has increased rapidly because such services are cost-effective for several types of workloads, and some cloud clients prefer a single-tenant environment due to the lower security vulnerability of such enviornments. However, as the bare-metal cloud does not utilize a virtualization layer, it cannot use live migration. Thus, there is a lack of manageability with the bare-metal cloud. Live migration support can improve the manageability of bare-metal cloud services significantly.
