Abstract: An approach is provided for detecting and analyzing an anomaly in application performance in a client-server connection via a network. A status code of a response sent by a server to a client, a round trip latency time (RTT) of the response, and a time out of a connection between client and server are determined. Using a k-means clustering algorithm, buckets of RTT values clustered into lower and higher values, and running counts and means for the RTT values in each bucket, an RTT value is determined to exceed a threshold value. Based on the status code, the RTT value exceeding the threshold, and the connection time out, the anomaly is detected. Based on temporal and textual analyses of log entries and an environment analysis, candidate root causes of a failure that resulted in the anomaly are determined.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining an environmental impact of one or more transactions. An example method generally includes accessing transaction data representative of a plurality of transactions, where each of the transactions involves a user and a merchant, and accessing at least one index indicative of environmental impact of a plurality of merchants. The method also includes generating a graph based on the users and merchants included in the transaction data, whereby the graph is representative of the plurality of transactions, and determining a mapping between ones of the merchants involved in the transaction data and the environmental impact indicated by the at least one index, based on at least one of: the graph, the accessed at least one index, a graph convolution network (GCN), and a graph neural network (GNN). The method then includes publishing the mapping between the ones of the merchants and the environmental impact.

Abstract: A system for performing implicit assessment of a pupil is provided. The system receives a learning content from a content provider, the learning content having checkpoints at different stages of the learning content. The system associates assessment instructions with each checkpoint of the learning content. The system renders the received learning content for presentation to a pupil and captures the behaviors of the pupil during the presentation of the learning content. The system performs an assessment of the pupil at each checkpoint encountered during the rendering of the learning presentation. The assessment at a checkpoint includes using the checkpoint's associated assessment instructions to assign a score based on the captured behaviors. The system then produces an overall evaluation based on the assessments performed at the encountered checkpoints.

Abstract: In response to a posting of a negative review of an information technology item, external environmental context data is collected that comprehends processing environment attributes of an external process that interacts with the item in a reviewed performance of the item. An attribute of the item criticized in the review is correlated with an attribute of the external environmental context data as a function of contemporaneous time of occurrence. Degrees of likelihood as the principal cause of the negative review are determined for the attributes of the information technology item and for the correlated external environmental context data attribute. The negative review is determined to be a false negative review if the degree of likelihood that the correlated attribute of the external environmental context data is the principal cause is higher than the degree of likelihood that the criticized attribute of the information technology item is the principal cause.
