Anomaly detection has become an important topic in many domains with many different solutions proposed until now. Despite that, there are only a few anomaly detection methods trying to explain how the sample differs from the rest. This work contributes to filling this gap because knowing why a sample is considered anomalous is critical in many application domains. The proposed solution uses a specific type of random forests to extract rules explaining the difference, which are then filtered and presented to the user as a set of classification rules sharing the same consequent, or as the equivalent rule with an antecedent in a disjunctive normal form. The quality of that solution is documented by comparison with the state of the art algorithms on 34 real-world datasets.
