Anomaly detection in banking IT systems is vital for maintaining operational efficiency but remains complex due to temporal patterns in time-series data. Traditional approaches, such as static thresholding, often fall short, underscoring the need for advanced forecasting methods. This study assesses five forecasting models—Amazon Chronos, Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), Prophet, AutoARIMA, and XGBoost—using proprietary data from Yapı Kredi Technology, covering 20 banking services across 578 days. A rolling-window forecasting approach was employed, with performance evaluated through Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Amazon Chronos excelled, delivering the lowest MAE (39.09 ms) and MAPE (16.24%), with its superiority validated by Friedman and Nemenyi statistical tests. Its probabilistic forecasts facilitated dynamic anomaly detection using a 95% confidence interval. These results emphasize the potential of cutting-edge models to improve banking system reliability, paving the way for future enhancements in optimization and real-time deployment.

摘要

Anomaly detection in banking IT systems is vital for maintaining operational efficiency but remains complex due to temporal patterns in time-series data. Traditional approaches, such as static thresholding, often fall short, underscoring the need for advanced forecasting methods. This study assesses five forecasting models—Amazon Chronos, Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), Prophet, AutoARIMA, and XGBoost—using proprietary data from Yapı Kredi Technology, covering 20 banking services across 578 days. A rolling-window forecasting approach was employed, with performance evaluated through Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). Amazon Chronos excelled, delivering the lowest MAE (39.09 ms) and MAPE (16.24%), with its superiority validated by Friedman and Nemenyi statistical tests. Its probabilistic forecasts facilitated dynamic anomaly detection using a 95% confidence interval. These results emphasize the potential of cutting-edge models to improve banking system reliability, paving the way for future enhancements in optimization and real-time deployment.
