  • Publication number: 20190325346
    Abstract: Machine learning with model filtering and model mixing for edge devices in a heterogeneous environment is disclosed. In an example embodiment, an edge device includes a communication module, a data collection device, a memory, a machine learning module, and a model mixing module. The edge device analyzes collected data with a model for a first task, outputs a result, and updates the model to create a local model. The edge device communicates with other edge devices in a heterogeneous group, transmits a request for local models to the heterogeneous group, and receives local models from the heterogeneous group. The edge device filters the local models by structure metadata, including second local models, which relate to a second task. The edge device performs a mix operation of the second local models to generate a mixed model which relates to the second task, and transmits the mixed model to the heterogeneous group.

  • Patent number: 10397260
    Abstract: A control apparatus performs analysis by using partial information and determines whether or not communication is abnormal. If the communication is determined to be abnormal, the control apparatus controls a communication route for a communication control device such that the communication is transmitted from a communication apparatus to the control apparatus. Further, the control apparatus determines whether or not the communication transmitted by the control of the communication route is malicious communication. As a result, if the communication is determined to be malicious communication, the control apparatus controls the communication control device to restrict the malicious communication.

  • Patent number: 9471882
    Abstract: In a case where supervised (learning) data is prepared and the case where test data is prepared, the data is recorded with time information attached to the data. The method includes clustering the learning data in a target class and clustering the test data in the target class. Then, the probability density for each of identified subclasses is calculated for each of time intervals having various time points and widths for the learning data, and is calculated for each of time intervals in the latest time period which have various widths, for the test data. Then, a ratio between a probability density obtained when learning is performed and a probability density obtained when testing is performed is obtained as a relative frequency in each of the time intervals for each of the subclasses. Input having a relative frequency that statistically and markedly increases is detected as an anomaly.

  • Patent number: 9122771
    Abstract: A computer implemented method and system for calculating a degree of similarity between two graphs whose nodes are respectively given discrete labels include providing, for each of the two graphs, label values respectively to a given node and nodes adjacent thereto so that different ones of the discrete labels correspond to different ones of the label values. The nodes are sequentially tracing for each of the two graphs, and, during the tracing of the nodes, a new label value is calculated through a hash calculation using a label value of a currently visited node and also using label values of nodes adjacent to the currently visited node to update the label value to the currently visited node. The degree of similarity between the two graphs is calculated on the basis of the number of the label values having been given to nodes of the two graphs and agreeing between the two graphs.
