RAD: Rule-Augmented Relational Anomaly Detection
Anomaly detection is often applied to data stored in relational databases, yet most existing methods require flattening multiple tables into a single feature matrix. This flattening can obscure entity identity, schema structure, and multi-hop dependencies, limiting the detection of anomalies that depend on relational context rather than isolated feature values. Beyond preserving relational structure, relational anomaly detection raises an additional challenge: how to incorporate symbolic behavioral evidence into learned relational representations. To address these challenges, we study relation
