Abstract: A method or apparatus for monitoring a system by detecting misbehaving components in the system is presented. A computing device receives historical data points based on a set of monitored signals of a system. The system has components that are monitored through the set of monitored signals. For each monitored component, the computing device performs unsupervised machine learning based on the historical data points to identify expected states and state transitions for the component. The computing device identifies one or more steady components based on the identified states of the monitored components. The computing device also receives real-time data points based on monitoring the set of signals from the system. For each identified steady component, the computing device examines the received real-time data points for deviation from the expected state and state transitions of the steady component. The computing device reports anomaly in the system based on the detected deviations.

Abstract: An online system selects advertisements for a user based on characteristics of the user. The online system presents advertisements to the user having targeting criteria satisfied by the characteristics of the user. To increase the number of users eligible to be presented with an advertisement, the online system increases the users eligible to be presented with the advertisement to include users that do not meet targeting criteria included in the advertisement. The online system obtains a percentile of users based on a performance metric associated with the advertisement and determines a cutoff measure of affinity based on the percentile and measures of affinity between various users and the advertisement. A user is eligible to be presented with the advertisement if a measure of affinity between the user and the advertisement is greater than the cutoff measure of affinity for the advertisement.

Search indexes are updated with the new and spiking URL data. As such, lag time between posting of new URLs and spiking of URL interest and inclusion of this data in a search index is greatly decreased.
