arXiv:2511.16145v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Time series anomaly detection (TSAD) is a critical data mining task often constrained by label scarcity. Consequently, current research predominantly focuses on Unsupervised Time-series Anomaly Detection (UTAD), relying on increasingly complex architectures to model normal data distributions. However, this algorithm-centric trend often overlooks the significant performance gains achievable from limited anomaly labels available in practical scenarios. This paper challenges the premise that algorithmic complexity is the optimal path for TSAD. Instead of proposing another intricate unsupervised model, we present a comprehensive benchmark and empirical study to rigorously compare supervised and unsupervised paradigms. To isolate the value of labels, we introduce \stand, a deliberately minimalist supervised baseline. Extensive experiments on five public datasets demonstrate that: (1) Labels matter more than models: under a limited labeling budget, simple supervised models significantly outperform complex state-of-the-art unsupervised methods; (2) Supervision yields higher returns: the performance gain from minimal supervision far exceeds the incremental gains from architectural innovations; and (3) Practicality: \stand~exhibits superior prediction consistency and anomaly localization compared to unsupervised counterparts. These findings advocate for a paradigm shift in TSAD research, urging the community to prioritize data-centric label utilization over purely algorithmic complexity. The code and benchmark are publicly available at https://github.com/EmorZz1G/STAND.

arXiv:2603.08332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The proliferation of fake reviews, often produced by organized groups, undermines consumer trust and fair competition on online platforms. These groups employ sophisticated strategies that evade traditional detection methods, particularly in cold-start scenarios involving newly launched products with sparse data. To address this, we propose the \underline{D}iversity- and \underline{S}imilarity-aware \underline{D}ynamic \underline{G}raph \underline{A}ttention-enhanced \underline{G}raph \underline{C}onvolutional \underline{N}etwork (DS-DGA-GCN), a new graph learning model for detecting fake reviewer groups. DS-DGA-GCN achieves robust detection since it focuses on the joint relationships among products, reviews, and reviewers by modeling product-review-reviewer networks. DS-DGA-GCN also achieves adaptive detection by integrating a Network Feature Scoring (NFS) system and a new dynamic graph attention mechanism. The NFS system quantifies network attributes, including neighbor diversity, network self-similarity, as a unified feature score. The dynamic graph attention mechanism improves the adaptability and computational efficiency by captures features related to temporal information, node importance, and global network structure. Extensive experiments conducted on two real-world datasets derived from Amazon and Xiaohongshu demonstrate that DS-DGA-GCN significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving accuracies of up to \textbf{89.8\% and 88.3\%}, respectively.
