One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates detecting an anomaly in a signal, wherein the signal is sampled to produce a set of possible quantized signal values. During operation, the system constructs a "reference distribution" for an "occurrence frequency" of a specific quantized signal value from the set of possible quantized signal values. The system then obtains a "deviant distribution" associated with the reference distribution, wherein the deviant distribution has an offset from the reference distribution to indicate an anomaly in the signal. Next, in response to a new occurrence of the specific quantized signal value, the system updates a mean and a variance of the reference distribution for the specific quantized signal value. The system also adjusts the deviant distribution for the specific quantized signal value based on the updated mean and the updated variance of the reference distribution for the specific quantized signal value.
