Abstract
A method is provided for rate limiting in a network. The method comprises receiving a traffic flow from the network. In a supervised learning phase, and determining if the traffic flow matches a pretrained network flow model. If so, the method comprises designating the traffic flow as a classified traffic flow according to the pretrained network flow model. The method further comprises advancing to a grouping phase, conditioned upon the traffic flow not matching pretrained network flow models. In the unsupervised learning phase, the method comprises designating the traffic flow as a classified traffic flow. In the grouping phase that follows the supervised learning phase and the unsupervised learning phase, the method comprises using side information about the traffic flows to assign related traffic flows into traffic flow groups, identifying a particular traffic flow group from the traffic flow groups as being an offending traffic flow group.
