  • Patent number: 12380121
    Abstract: A method for anomaly detection includes receiving an anomaly detection query from a user. The anomaly detection query requests data processing hardware determine one or more anomalies in a dataset including a plurality of examples. Each example in the plurality of examples is associated with one or more features. The method includes training a model using the dataset. The trained model is configured to use a local outlier factor (LOF) algorithm. For each respective example of the plurality of examples in the dataset, the method includes determining, using the trained model, a respective local deviation score based on the one or more features. The method includes determining that the respective local deviation score satisfies a deviation score threshold and, based on the location deviation score satisfying the threshold, determining that the respective example is anomalous. The method includes reporting the respective anomalous example to the user.

  • Publication number: 20250190292
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a query to determine anomalies in a set of multivariate time series data values including an endogenous variable and an exogenous variable. The method includes determining an impact of the exogenous variable on the endogenous variable. The method includes determining a set of univariate time series data values and training one or more models using the univariate time series data values. The method includes determining an expected data value for a respective time series data value and determining a difference between the expected data value and the respective time series data value. The method includes determining that the difference between the expected data value for a particular time series data value and the particular time series data value satisfies a threshold. In response, the method includes determining that the particular time series data value is anomalous and reporting the anomalous value to a user.

  • Publication number: 20250013937
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed methods, systems, and computer readable media for in-database holiday effect modeling for time series forecasting. The modeling can be accurate, explainable, customizable, and scalable. Machine learning models can receive a first dataset for time series data and a second dataset for configurable holiday data. The models can detect and model effects of each configurable holiday on one or more forecasts, effectively accumulating effects of overlapping holidays, to manage different levels of holiday modeling. Holiday data can be customizable, including an ability to modify existing holidays and/or add new holidays, through one or more interfaces that can display default holiday information, combined holiday information based on both default and customizable holidays, effects of each holiday on forecasts, and accumulated effects of multiple holidays on forecasts.

  • Publication number: 20240193035
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a point data anomaly detection query from a user. The query requests the data processing hardware to determine a quantity of anomalous point data values in a set of point data values. The method includes training a model using the set of point data values. For at least one respective point data value in the set of point data values, the method includes determining, using the trained model, a variance value for the respective point data value and determining that the variance value satisfies a threshold value. Based on the variance value satisfying the threshold value, the method includes determining that the respective point data value includes an anomalous point data value. The method includes reporting the determined anomalous point data value to the user.

  • Publication number: 20230274180
    Abstract: A method for forecasting time-series data, when executed by data processing hardware, causes the data processing hardware to perform operations including receiving a time series forecasting query from a user requesting a time series forecast forecasting future data based on a set of current time-series data. The operations include obtaining, from the set of current time-series data, a set of training data. The operations include training, using a first portion of the set of training data, a first sub-model of a forecasting model and training, using a second portion of the set of training data, a second sub-model of the forecasting model. The second portion is different than the first portion. The operations include forecasting, using the forecasting model, the future data based on the set of current time-series data and returning, to the user, the forecasted future data for the time series forecast.

  • Publication number: 20220405623
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a query-driven machine learning platform for generating feature attributions and other data for interpreting the relationship between inputs and outputs of a machine learning model. The platform can receive query statements for selecting data, training a machine learning model, and generating model explanation data for the model. The platform can distribute processing for generating the model explanation data to scale in response to requests to process selected data, including multiple records with a variety of different feature values. The interface between a user device and the machine learning platform can streamline deployment of different model explainability approaches across a variety of different machine learning models.
