  • Patent number: 11789915
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for improving anomaly detection in timeseries datasets. Different machine learning models may be trained to process specific types of timeseries data efficiently and accurately. Thus, selecting a proper machine learning model for identifying anomalies in a specific set of timeseries data may greatly improve accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection. Another way to improve anomaly detection is to process a multitude of timeseries datasets for a time period (e.g., 90 days) to detect anomalies from those timeseries datasets and then correlate those detected anomalies by generating an anomaly timeseries dataset and identifying anomalies within the anomaly timeseries dataset. Yet another way to improve anomaly detection is to divide a dataset into multiple datasets based on a type of anomaly detection requested.

  • Patent number: 11783046
    Abstract: Anomaly detection in computing environments is disclosed herein. An example method includes receiving an unstructured input stream of data instances from the computing environment, the unstructured input stream being time stamped; categorizing the data instances of the unstructured input stream of data instances, the data instances comprising at least one principle value and a set of categorical attributes determined through machine learning; generating anomaly scores for each of the data instances collected over a period of time; and detecting a change in the categorical attribute that is indicative of an anomaly.

  • Publication number: 20230316112
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include at least one processor that receives a data set of a data stream from a data source, where the data set includes a time-varying data points. The processor determines event observations associated with data points of the time-varying data points based on a detection model to identify types of the event observations, including: i) anomalies, ii) change-points, iii) patterns, or iv) outliers. The processor generates anomaly records in an event data store based on the event observations and automatically generates event records for at least one of the anomaly records based on variables of at least one dimension of the time-varying data points, where the event record links one or more event observations. The processor automatically applies changes in the event record to each event observation of the one or more event observations based on the linking by the event record.
