  • Publication number: 20260339815
    Abstract: This document relates to using machine learning models to automate the process of generating alert rules for computing systems. The disclosed techniques can generate templates that match log entries from system logs. Then, the templates can be employed to generate alert rules that specify certain conditions when alerts should be triggered. In some implementations, the machine learning model is invoked responsive to a determination that a given log entry does not already match an existing template. Thus, the number of invocations of the machine learning model is proportional to the number of templates, rather than the number of log entries. Since there are often many more log entries than templates, this approach can yield significant computational savings compared to approaches that might process each log entry using the machine learning model.

  • Publication number: 20260310929
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically modifying a cache associated with a neural network model of a natural language generator are described. In examples, a neural network model employs a beam search algorithm at a decoder when decoding output and generating predicted output candidates. The decoder utilizes caching techniques to improve a speed at which the neural network operations. When an amount of memory utilized by one or more caches of the neural network model is determined to exceed a threshold memory size, a layer-specific portion of a cache associated with a layer of the neural network model is identified. The identified layer-specific portion of the cache can be deleted when the amount of memory utilized by the cache of the neural network model exceeds the threshold memory size. In examples, data in the cache is deduplicated and/or deleted.

  • Publication number: 20260292676
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for improving the performance and energy efficiency of Radio Access Networks (RANs) are described. Various power control schemes may dynamically adjust RAN power consumption based on fluctuations in network traffic, throughput, latency, queue sizes, and/or packet error rates with the goal of increasing energy efficiency while maintaining quality of service metrics. The power control schemes may be implemented using a PRB controller for dynamically allocating physical resource blocks (PRBs) to user devices and a CPU controller for assigning CPU power profiles based on PRB allocations for the user devices. The PRB controller and CPU controller may periodically acquire real-time telemetry data and wireless network performance information and then adjust the number of PRBs for user devices and adjust the CPU power profiles for executing RAN functions based on the telemetry data and wireless network performance information.

  • Publication number: 20260288527
    Abstract: A bi-level machine learning (“ML”)-assisted framework for resource management is provided that includes an application-level controller that operates in concert with a service-level controller to scale the allocation of a computing resource to a network service in a manner that satisfies a service-level objective (“SLO”) . The application-level controller utilizes a ML model to learn a performance target that is transmitted to the service-level controller. The service-level controller adjusts the allocation of the computing resource to the network service based on the performance target and resource utilization data associated with the network service.
