Abstract: Smart hospital networks are considered the most sensitive networks for anomalies; any tiny existence might produce very different dangerous scales. The usual anomaly detections dedicated to this kind of network are not able to analyse all the different categories and proprieties of the generated data, because the majority of them rely only on time series analysis which is not able to cover all the circulated pieces of information. For that, in this paper, we will survey a proposed anomaly detection architecture that can dominate all the data categories that exist inside the e-health network using image recognition as well as time-series analysis.
