+Two multivariate time series (structured CDN KPIs) datasets are used in our work (folders named dataset1 and dataset2) which span 78 days and 64 days respectively.
+These two datasets are collected from two different provincial-level CDN edge sites of a top ISP-operated CDN.
+There are 7 abnormal sequences in dataset 1 and 5 abnormal sequences in dataset 2.
+These labelled abnormal sequences are confirmed by human operators. So they can be considered as the ground truth.
+The KPIs in the datasets include the out-bound traffic and in-bound traffic of CDN servers, cache hit ratio, average bitrate, and so on.
+For privacy reasons, these KPIs are anonymized and normalized.

+## Dataset Information
+
+### Dataset1
+#### Basic Statistics
+
+Statistics | dataset1
+--- | ---
+Number of KPIs | 24
+Durations (day) | 78
+Granularity (min) | 5
+Number of points | 22,356
+Number of anomaly sequences | 7
+Anomaly ratio (%) | 1.6
+Train period | 1 ∼ 10,656
+Test period | 10,657 ∼ 22,356
+
+#### Data format
+There are 24 CSV files and each file corresponds to a KPI.
+The CSV has the following format:
+* First column is the timestamp

+### Public Dataset
+The public dataset (SMD) used in our evaluation experiments as well as its detailed description can be found in web sites:
+https://github.com/NetManAIOps/OmniAnomaly
+
+For simplicity, we select 2 of 28 machine data namely "machine-1-2.txt" and "machine-1-3.txt" to conduct evaluation experiments.
+
+**Note that all KPIs are normalized and we omitted the real name of each KPI for confidentiality, but this does not affect the accuracy of the evaluation experiments.**
