  • Publication number: 20190243739
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and correcting anomalous behavior include generating a joint binary embedding of each of a set of historical time series sequences. A joint binary embedding of a recent time series sequence is generated. A ranked list of the plurality of historical time series sequences is generated according to respective similarities of each historical time series sequence to the recent time series sequence based on the respective joint binary embeddings of each. Anomalous behavior of a system associated with the recent time series sequence is determined according to a label of a top-ranked historical time series sequence in the ranked list. A corrective action is performed to correct the anomalous behavior.
