Techniques are described for identifying root cause anomalies in time series. Information to be used for root cause analysis (RCA) is obtained from a graph neural network (GNN) and is used to construct a dependency graph having nodes corresponding to each time series and directed edges corresponding to dependencies between the time series. Nodes corresponding to time series that do not contain anomalies may be removed from this dependency graph, as well as edges connected to these nodes. This edge and node removal may result in the creation of one or more sub-graphs from the dependency graph. A root cause analysis algorithm may be run on these one or more sub-graphs to create a root cause graph for each sub-graph. These root cause graphs may then be used to identify root cause anomalies within the multiple time series, as well as sequences of anomalies within the multiple time series.

Techniques for providing actionable recommendations for configuring system parameters are disclosed. A set of environmental constraints and a set of values for a set of parameters for a target device is applied to a machine learning model to predict a first performance value of the target device. Candidate values for the set of parameters are identified that are within a threshold range from the first set of values in a multi-dimensional space. For each particular candidate set of values of the candidate sets of values the machine learning model to predicts a performance value of the target device and identifies a subset of the candidate sets of values with corresponding performance values that meet a performance criteria. A subset of candidate sets of values that meets performance criteria is provided as a recommendation.

Techniques for selecting universal hyper parameters for use in a set of machine learning models across multiple computing environments include detection of a triggering condition for tuning a set of universal hyper parameters. The set of universal hyper parameters dictate configuration of the set of machine learning models that are independently executing, respectively, in the multiple computing environments. Based on the detected triggering condition, a first subset of universal hyper parameters from the set of universal hyper parameters are altered to generate a second set of universal hyper parameters. The second set of universal hyper parameters are applied to the set of machine learning models across the multiple computing environments.

Machine learning is performed on the data points corresponding to one or both of the first feature and the second feature having a first quality score above a threshold value to model the third feature.

Embodiments determine an optimized maintenance schedule for a maintenance program that includes multiple levels, each level including at least one asset (i.e., asset type) and at least one of the levels including a plurality of assets. Embodiments receive historical failure data for each of the assets, the historical failure data generated at least in part by a sensor network. For each asset, embodiments generate a probability density function ('PDF') using kernel density estimation ('KDE'). For each asset, based on a reliability rate threshold, embodiments determine a cumulative density function (&#x201c;CDF&#x201d;) using the PDF. For each asset, embodiments determine an optimized time to failure (&#x201c;TTF&#x201d;) using the CDF. Embodiments then create the schedule for each level that includes a minimum TTF for the assets at each level.

A model analyzer may receive a representative data set as input and select one of a plurality of analytic models to perform the analysis. Before deciding which model to use the model may be trained, and the trained model evaluated for accuracy. However, some models are known to behave poorly when the training data is distributed in a particular way. Thus, the cost of training a model and evaluating the trained model can be avoided by first analyzing the distribution of the representative data. Identifying the representative data distribution allows ruling out use of models for which the distribution of the representative data is unsuitable. Only models that may be compatible with the distribution of the representative data may be trained and evaluated for accuracy. The most accurate trained model whose accuracy meets an accuracy threshold may be selected to analyze subsequently received data related to the representative data.

Embodiments determine anomalies in sensor data generated by a sensor by receiving an evaluation time window of clean sensor data generated by the sensor. Embodiments receive a threshold value for determining anomalies. When the clean sensor data has a cyclic pattern, embodiments divide the evaluation time window into a plurality of segments of equal length, wherein each equal length comprises the cyclic pattern. When the clean sensor data does not have the cyclic pattern, embodiments divide the evaluation time window into a pre-defined number of plurality of segments of equal length. Embodiments convert the evaluation time window and each of the plurality of segments into corresponding curves using Kernel Density Estimation ('KDE'). For each of the plurality of segments, embodiments determine a Kullback-Leibler ('KL') divergence value between corresponding curves of the segment and the evaluation time window to generate a plurality of KL divergence values.
