Systems and methods for mapping configuration items to business functions within a corporate infrastructure are disclosed. Discovery processes to automatically create and update service maps may introduce an artificial dependency between configuration items that is not necessary to the business function represented in the service map. These unnecessary dependencies may be considered 'noise' and unnecessarily complicate the service map. Using machine learning techniques and procedures to identify short lived connections embodiments in accordance with this disclosure, dependency connections that may be considered noise may be detected and flagged. Once detected, these connections may be automatically removed from the service map to improve its accuracy and usefulness. Additionally, a user interface is provided that explains the 'reason codes' for identification of noise connections. Reason codes allow a user to understand how the machine learning algorithm traversed a decision tree to identify a connection as noise.
