Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, an approach accurately detects anomalies or outliers of a time-series dataset. A method for identifying whether a particular data element of the time-series dataset is an outlier comprises predicting a value for that particular data element and obtaining a threshold value that defines, relative to the predicted value, whether an actual value of the data element is an outlier. In an aspect of a present invention embodiment, the threshold value is generated based on historic error values associated with data elements temporally preceding the particular data element of the time-series dataset.

Abstract: Techniques that facilitate machine learning optimization are provided. In one example, a system includes a computational resource component, a batch interval component, and a machine learning component. The computational resource component collects computational resource data associated with a group of computing devices that performs a machine learning process. The batch interval component determines, based on the computational resource data, batch interval data indicative of a time interval to collect data for the machine learning process. The machine learning component provides the batch interval data to the group of computing devices to facilitate execution of the machine learning process based on the batch interval data.

Abstract: A system and method for recognizing recurrent crowd mobility patterns in a defined geographical area are presented. A crowded area may be determined for a selected geographical region at predefined time intervals based on spatial distribution of a plurality of users collected from a social media network. A crowd footprint may be generated according to the crowded areas determined at the predefined time intervals. Recurrent crowd mobility patterns may be detected according to the crowd footprint.
