Patent number: 11943123Abstract: Determining a time-state metric includes receiving a stream of raw data values of an attribute. Each received raw data value of the attribute is associated with a timestamp. It further includes converting the received stream of raw data values into a timeline representation of the attribute over time. The timeline representation comprises a sequence of spans. A span comprises a span start time, a span end time, and a span value. The span value comprises an encoding of one or more values of the attribute over a time interval determined by the span start time and the span end time. It further includes determining a time-state metric according to a timeline request configuration. The timeline request configuration comprises one or more timeline operations. The time-state metric is computed at least in part by performing a timeline operation on the timeline representation of the attribute.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2023Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Conviva Inc.Inventors: Henry Milner, Oleg Puzyrko, Jibin Zhan, Hui Zhang, Akara Sucharitakul, Vyas Sekar, Yihua Cheng

Publication number: 20220191085Abstract: Automatic diagnostics alerts for streaming multiple types of content is disclosed. At a first time, a set of metrics for a plurality of groups of streaming sessions is computed. A streaming session in a group is associated with streaming of a piece of content encoded by an entity. The streaming of the piece of content encoded by the entity is associated with streaming of another piece of content. An anomaly is identified at least in part by performing anomaly detection using the set of metrics. A cause of the identified anomaly is diagnosed. An alert is generated based at least in part on the diagnosis.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2022Publication date: June 16, 2022Inventors: Yan Li, Rui Zhang, Henry Milner, Jibin Zhan
