  • Patent number: 11971778
    Abstract: A continuous anomaly detection service receives data stream and performs continuous anomaly detection on the incoming data streams. This continuous anomaly detection is performed based on anomaly detection definitions, which define a signal used for anomaly detection and an anomaly detection configuration. These anomaly detection definitions can be modified, such that continuous anomaly detection continues to be performed for the data stream and the signal, based on the new anomaly detection definition.

  • Patent number: 11875032
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for anomaly detection based on a predicted value. A search query can be executed over a period of time to produce values for a key performance indicator (KPI), the search query defining the KPI and deriving a value indicative of the performance of a service at a point in time or during a period of time, the value derived from machine data pertaining to one or more entities that provide the service. A graphical user interface (GUI) enabling a user to indicate a sensitivity setting can be displayed. A user input indicating the sensitivity setting can be received via the GUI. Zero or more of the values as anomalies can be identified in consideration of the sensitivity setting indicated by the user input.

  • Patent number: 11226977
    Abstract: A facility for defining an event subtype using examples is described. The facility displays events identified among machine-generated data. The facility receives user input selecting a first subset of the events as examples of an event subtype. In response to receiving the user input, the facility displays a second subset of the events predicted to belong to the event subtype on the basis of the examples of the event subtype.

  • Patent number: 10992560
    Abstract: An anomaly detection system includes a plurality of signals. Each of the signals is associated with an anomaly detection procedure that will be used to identify anomalies within the signal. Anomaly detection is performed by applying the anomaly detection procedure to a sequential set of data points of a signal. The signals are updated based on incoming data streams. The data streams are analyzed, and the sequential set of data points for each signal is updated based on data points extracted from the data streams.

  • Patent number: 10776719
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing adaptive thresholding technology for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are updated using training data. Adaptive thresholding technology may automatically assign new values or adjust existing values for one or more thresholds of one or more time policies. Assigning threshold values using adaptive thresholding may involve identifying training data (e.g., historical data, simulated data, or example data) for the time frames and analyzing the training data to identify variations within the data (e.g., patterns, distributions, trends). A threshold value may be determined based on the variations and may be assigned to one or more of the thresholds without additional user intervention.

  • Patent number: 10503348
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for displaying and configuring adaptive or static thresholds for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). The GUI may include one or more presentation schedules that may display threshold information associated with time policies. Each presentation schedule may include multiple time slots and span a portion of one or more time cycles. Some of the time slots may be associated with a specific time policy and may have a unifying appearance that distinguishes the time slots from timeslots associated with other time policies. The presentation schedules may arrange the time slots in a time grid arrangement (e.g., calendar grid view) or a graph arrangement with depictions (e.g., points, lines) that may illustrate KPI values and threshold markers that may illustrate the threshold values.
