  • Publication number: 20190342195
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a network assurance service that monitors a network detects anomalies in the network by applying one or more machine learning-based anomaly detectors to telemetry data from the network. The network assurance service receives ranking feedback from a plurality of anomaly rankers regarding relevancy of the detected anomalies. The network assurance service calculates a rescaling factor and quantile parameter by applying an objective function to the ranking feedback, in order to optimize the rescaling factor and quantile parameter of the one or more anomaly detectors. The network assurance service adjusts the rescaling factor and quantile parameter of the one or more anomaly detectors using the calculated rescaling factor and quantile parameter.

  • Patent number: 10339651
    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for simultaneous feature extraction and dictionary learning from heterogeneous tissue images, without the need of prior local labeling. A convolutional autoencoder is adapted and enhanced to jointly learn a feature extraction algorithm and a dictionary of representative atoms. While training the autoencoder an image patch is tiled in sub-patches and only the highest activation value per sub-patch is kept. Thus, only a subset of spatially constrained values per patch is used for reconstruction. The deconvolutional filters are the dictionary elements, and only a deconvolution layer is used for these elements. Embodiments described herein may be provided for use in models for representing local tissue heterogeneity for better disease progression understanding and thus treating, diagnosing, and/or predicting the occurrence (e.g., recurrence) of one or more medical conditions such as, for example, cancer or other types of disease.
