  • Estimating utilization of network resources using time series data
    Patent number: 11281986
    Abstract: In one implementation, a method includes obtaining time series data. The time serious data includes a plurality of network utilization measurements. The plurality of network utilization measurements is indicative of a plurality of utilizations of one or more resources of a network resource at a plurality of times. The method also includes determining whether the time series data comprises a plurality of segments. Each segment of the plurality of segments is associated with a separate regression model and each segment includes a portion of the time series data. The method further includes identifying a current segment from the time series data when the time series data comprises the plurality of segments. The method further includes determining an estimated network utilization based on a current regression model associated with the current segment.
