Abstract: Methods and systems for anomaly detection include encoding a multivariate time series and a multi-type event sequence using respective transformers and an aggregation network to generate a feature vector. Anomaly detection is performed using the feature vector to identify an anomaly within a system. A corrective action is performed responsive to the anomaly to correct or mitigate an effect of the anomaly. The detected anomaly can be used in a healthcare context to support decision making by medical professionals with respect to the treatment of a patient. The encoding may include machine learning models to implement the transformers and the aggregation network using deep learning.

Abstract: Methods and systems for training a model include distinguishing hidden states of a monitored system based on condition information. An encoder and decoder are generated for each respective hidden state using forward and backward autoencoder losses. A hybrid hidden state is determined for an input sequence based on the hidden states. The input sequence is reconstructed using the encoders and decoders and the hybrid hidden state. Parameters of the encoders and decoders are updated based on a reconstruction loss.
