  • Publication number: 20240070574
    Abstract: An embodiment includes creating an action item record corresponding to an action item of an action plan record that is responsive to a service request. The action item record comprises a service requirement of the action item. The embodiment executes a querying process that searches vendor records for candidate vendors associated with the service requirement and returns a set of candidate vendors. The embodiment updates the action item record with the set of candidate vendors and determines an optimal vendor team based at least in part on reputation data and cost data associated with each of the candidate vendors. The embodiment updates the action plan record to include the optimal vendor team, which triggers creation of a vendor team dispatch request.

  • Publication number: 20230359542
    Abstract: A method, a computer program product, and a computer system handle a data gap in sequential data. The method includes receiving the sequential data for a period of time. The method includes selecting the data gap in the sequential data at a timestamp. The method includes determining a sliding window associated with the data gap based on the timestamp for a duration of time. The sliding window includes dependent data from which the data gap depends. The method includes, as a result of the dependent data of the sliding window including at least one window data gap, generating extracted patterns based on the dependent data to mask the at least one window data gap. The method includes determining a prediction to fill the data gap using a prediction model that takes as input modified data based on the dependent data and the extracted patterns.

  • Publication number: 20230359706
    Abstract: An approach for end-to-end anomaly detection and anomalous patterns identification is disclosed. The approach leverages the use of a GMM-LASSO (a selection operator-type, Lasso-type, generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator) algorithm and proposes a feedback loop where the window (i.e., anomalous window) is detected and then it is used to detect the anomalous patterns. For example, the approach can classify one or more sequential data; generates one or more vectors based on the one or more sequential data; clusters the one or more vectors into one or more clusters; determines a membership of the one or more vectors associated with the one or more clusters; updates the one or more clusters; and optimizes the one or more clusters with respect to a predefined threshold.
