The disclosed technology is directed towards automatically detecting failure states and the cause of the failure. For a network, the technology collects status messages from equipment and customers into batches as they occur. The technology groups and aggregates messages, then transforms the aggregations to the frequency domain. Anomalies induce detectable changes in the particle distribution of a trained particle filter, from which an anomalous spectrogram is generated. The status messages of each device are iteratively removed from the larger set of messages, resulting in reduced subsets that are each aggregated, transformed into a modified spectrogram and compared against the anomalous spectrogram to obtain a distance score. The distance score for each device is used to rank the devices with respect to being the cause of the failure.
