  • Publication number: 20230153680
    Abstract: Techniques for using machine learning model validated sensor data to generate recommendations for remediating issues in a monitored system are disclosed. A machine learning model is trained to identify correlations among sensors for a monitored system. Upon receiving current sensor data, the machine learning model identifies a subset of the current sensor data that cannot be validated. The system generates estimated values for the sensor data that cannot be validated based on the learned correlations among the sensor values. The system generates the recommendations for remediating the issues in the monitored system based on validated sensor values and the estimated sensor values.

  • Patent number: 11640380
    Abstract: Herein is acceleration for JavaScript object notation (JSON) documents in a relational database based on multilevel, multifield, multivalued indexing and querying. In an embodiment, into a table in a relational database, a computer stores many hierarchical data objects that respectively contain multiple levels that respectively contain one or more fields. An index is generated for indexed values in fields in at least two of the multiple levels. Based on the index, a database statement that references the table in the relational database and at least one of the indexed fields is executed. Indices herein provide matching to more fields in more levels of hierarchical data objects thereby decreasing or eliminating further filtering by brute force after index access. Matching ordinal positions within an array field needs no further filtration after index access. A single index provides increased spatial locality of index entries for acceleration. Index maintenance is minimized for acceleration.

  • Publication number: 20230061280
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying a root cause of an operational result of a deterministic machine learning model are disclosed. A system applies a deterministic machine learning model to a set of data to generate an operational result, such as a prediction of a “fault” or “no-fault” in the system. The set of data includes signals from multiple different data sources, such as sensors. The system applies an abductive model, generated based on the deterministic machine learning model, to the operational result. The abductive model identifies a particular set of data sources that is associated with the root cause of the operational result. The system generates a human-understandable explanation for the operational result based on the identified root cause.
