Autoencoder-based anomaly detection

Building of a simple autoencoder to detect anomalies (and quantify the degree of abnormality) using the TensorFlow framework. The model presented here is a simple autoencoder with one hidden layer. The number of neurons in the hidden layer is equal to the input-output layers. The sigmoid activation function is used for all layers and the reconstruction error is assessed using the mean squared error estimator. The model is used to predict sector configuration transitions, as described in the ICRAT 2018 paper: "Predicting sector configuration transitions with autoencoder-based anomaly detection"
