This task executes the Isolation Forest anomaly detection algorithm against the provided input training rasters. The IsolationForest task isolates detections by randomly selecting a feature, then randomly selecting a split value between the maximum and minimum values of the selected feature.

For background on the algorithm used, see Isolation Forest Classification.

Example


; Start the application
e = ENVI()
 
; Open an input raster file
RasterFile = Filepath('qb_boulder_msi', Subdir=['data'], $
  Root_Dir=e.Root_Dir)
Raster = e.OpenRaster(RasterFile)
 
; Get the Spectral Index task from the catalog of ENVITasks
SpectralTask=ENVITask('SpectralIndex')
 
; Define inputs
SpectralTask.INDEX = 'Normalized Difference Vegetation Index'
SpectralTask.INPUT_RASTER = Raster
 
; Run the task
SpectralTask.Execute
 
; Get the Image Threshold ROI task from the catalog of ENVITasks
ThresholdROITask=ENVITask('ImageThresholdToROI')
 
; Define inputs
ThresholdROITask.INPUT_RASTER = SpectralTask.OUTPUT_RASTER
ThresholdROITask.ROI_NAME = 'Water'
ThresholdROITask.ROI_COLOR = [0, 0, 255]
ThresholdROITask.THRESHOLD = [-1, -0.10000000149012, 0]
 
; Run the task
ThresholdROITask.Execute
 
; Get the statistics task from the catalog of ENVITasks
StatsTask = ENVITask('NormalizationStatistics')
 
; Define inputs
StatsTask.INPUT_RASTERS = Raster
 
; Run the task
StatsTask.Execute
 
; Get the data prep task from the catalog of ENVITasks
DataPrepTask = ENVITask('MLTrainingDataFromROIs')
 
; Define inputs
DataPrepTask.INPUT_RASTER = Raster
DataPrepTask.INPUT_ROI = ThresholdROITask.OUTPUT_ROI
DataPrepTask.BACKGROUND_LABELS = []
DataPrepTask.NORMALIZE_MIN_MAX = StatsTask.Normalization
DataPrepTask.Execute
 
; Get the training task from the catalog of ENVITasks
TrainTask = ENVITask('TrainIsolationForest')
 
; Define inputs
TrainTask.INPUT_RASTER = DataPrepTask.OUTPUT_RASTER
TrainTask.NUM_ESTIMATORS = 100
 
; Run the task
TrainTask.Execute
 
; Output model metadata
outputModelUri = TrainTask.OUTPUT_MODEL_URI
print, 'Model URI: ' + outputModelUri
 
outputModel = TrainTask.OUTPUT_MODEL
print, outputModel.Attributes

Syntax


Result = ENVITask('TrainIsolationForest')

Input parameters (Set, Get): BALANCE_CLASSES, INPUT_RASTERS, MODEL_DESCRIPTION, MODEL_NAME, MODEL_VERSION, NUM_ESTIMATORS, OUTPUT_MODEL_URI

Output parameters (Get only): OUTPUT_MODEL

Parameters marked as "Set" are those that you can set to specific values. You can also retrieve their current values any time. Parameters marked as "Get" are those whose values you can retrieve but not set.

Input Parameters


BALANCE_CLASSES (optional)

Specify whether all classes should be considered equal during training. This helps to account for classes with few samples compared to classes with many samples.

INPUT_RASTERS (required)

Specify one or more preprocessed training rasters to be used for training.

MODEL_DESCRIPTION (optional)

Specify the purpose of the model.

MODEL_NAME (optional)

Specify the name of the model. The default is Isolation Forest Anomaly Detector.

MODEL_VERSION (optional)

Specify a semantic version format (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH) for the trained model (for example, 1.0.0). The version may indicate the following:

  • MAJOR: Breaking changes to the model
  • MINOR: Compatibility or new features
  • PATCH: Minor adjustments

NUM_ESTIMATORS (optional)

Specify the number of decision trees to use. The estimators are the predictors of the algorithm. The default is 100.

OUTPUT_MODEL_URI (optional)

Specify a string with the fully qualified filename and path of the associated OUTPUT_MODEL. If you do not specify this parameter, or set it to an exclamation symbol (!), a temporary file will be created.

Output Parameters


OUTPUT_MODEL

This is a reference to the output model file.
