=======================
IsolationForest example
=======================
An example using :class:`~sklearn.ensemble.IsolationForest` for anomaly
detection.
The :ref:`isolation_forest` is an ensemble of "Isolation Trees" that "isolate"
observations by recursive random partitioning, which can be represented by a
tree structure. The number of splittings required to isolate a sample is lower
for outliers and higher for inliers.
In the present example we demo two ways to visualize the decision boundary of an
Isolation Forest trained on a toy dataset.

# Data generation
# ---------------
#
# We generate two clusters (each one containing `n_samples`) by randomly
# sampling the standard normal distribution as returned by
# :func:`numpy.random.randn`. One of them is spherical and the other one is
# slightly deformed.
#
# For consistency with the :class:`~sklearn.ensemble.IsolationForest` notation,
# the inliers (i.e. the gaussian clusters) are assigned a ground truth label `1`
# whereas the outliers (created with :func:`numpy.random.uniform`) are assigned
# the label `-1`.

# Plot discrete decision boundary
# -------------------------------
#
# We use the class :class:`~sklearn.inspection.DecisionBoundaryDisplay` to
# visualize a discrete decision boundary. The background color represents
# whether a sample in that given area is predicted to be an outlier
# or not. The scatter plot displays the true labels.

# Plot path length decision boundary
# ----------------------------------
#
# By setting the `response_method="decision_function"`, the background of the
# :class:`~sklearn.inspection.DecisionBoundaryDisplay` represents the measure of
# normality of an observation. Such score is given by the path length averaged
# over a forest of random trees, which itself is given by the depth of the leaf
# (or equivalently the number of splits) required to isolate a given sample.
#
# When a forest of random trees collectively produce short path lengths for
# isolating some particular samples, they are highly likely to be anomalies and
# the measure of normality is close to `0`. Similarly, large paths correspond to
# values close to `1` and are more likely to be inliers.
