Choose Wisely: An Extensive Evaluation of Model Selection for Anomaly Detection in Time Series

Summary: Evaluate time-series classification for anomaly-detector selection: 17 classifiers on 1,800 series, showing classifier-based selection outperforms all individual detectors with similar runtime. First large-scale baseline proving TS classification enables accurate, efficient model selection for AutoML anomaly pipelines. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
