Abstract
A method, a system, and an article are provided for detecting and managing anomalies associated with content presentations. An example computer-implemented method can include: obtaining a stream of data including a record of clicks on a plurality of client devices; aggregating the stream of data to generate a batch click stream for each of the client devices; processing the stream of data using a real-time anomaly detector to detect a first anomaly indicating that at least one of the client devices was previously associated with fraudulent clicks; processing each batch click stream using a batch anomaly detector to detect a second anomaly indicating that at least one of the batch click streams includes fraudulent clicks; and facilitating an adjustment of content presentations on the client devices, based on at least one of the detected first anomaly and the detected second anomaly.
