  • Publication number: 20230351210
    Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for detecting a diverse set of rare behavior. A time-series data representing one or more actions executed by an entity is received from a plurality of time-series data sources and is processed. A data structure corresponding to the entity, identifying the entity, and including one or more representations of processed time-series data identifying the actions is generated. A current action executed by the entity is detected. Current time-series data corresponding to the current action is received and associated with the data structure. First features are extracted from the generated data structure based on current time-series data and compared to second features extracted for at least another entity to determine difference parameters between first and second features. One or more models are trained using difference parameters, and a score for each action executed by the entity is determined.
