  • Patent number: 11449405
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus generates a graph that represents an action of a program. On the graph, an edge represents action contents of a process in an event. Further, two nodes connected by the edge respectively represent a subject and an object of the event. The information processing apparatus outputs the generated graph. Further, the information processing apparatus also alters the generated graph. When an index value of an event satisfies a first predetermined condition which index value is based on the number of occurrences or the frequency of occurrences of the event, the information processing apparatus alters the graph with respect to an edge representing the event.

  • Publication number: 20220035906
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus (2000) acquires an event graph (10) to be output. In the event graph (10), an activity content in an event related to an activity of a program is represented as an edge, and each of a subject and an object of the event is represented as a node. By using score information, the information processing apparatus (2000) determines a subgraph that matches an event graph (10) having a score equal to or higher than a threshold value from the event graphs (10) to be output. The score information associates each of a plurality of event graphs (10) with a score based on the number of occurrences of an event sequence represented by the event graph (10).

  • Publication number: 20220019660
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus (2000) acquires an event graph (10) to be output and determines a subgraph satisfying a predetermined reference from the acquired event graph (10) to be output. In the event graph (10), an activity content in an event related to an activity of a program is represented as an edge (14), and each of a subject and an object of the event is represented as a node (12). The information processing apparatus (2000) outputs the event graph (10) with an output mode of the determined subgraph as a first mode and with an output mode of another portion as a mode other than the first mode. The first mode is a mode in which at least one of the number of nodes (12) and the number of edges (14) is reduced than the number included in the determined graph.

  • Publication number: 20220012345
    Abstract: A history output apparatus (2000) acquires an abnormal event history (10) being information representing an abnormal event occurring in a target system (100), and determines a kind of the abnormal event represented by the abnormal event history (10). When a kind of the determined abnormal event is a first kind, the history output apparatus (2000) determines a terminal (110) in which the abnormal event occurs, as an output target terminal. Further, the history output apparatus (2000) also determines another terminal (110) performing communication with the terminal (110) in which the abnormal event occurs at or before a point when the abnormal event occurs, as an output target terminal. When the abnormal event represented by the acquired abnormal event history (10) is an abnormal event occurring in the output target terminal, the history output apparatus (2000) outputs information relating to the abnormal event.
