Abstract
A computer system automatically tests a network communication model by predicting whether particular traffic (whether actual or simulated) should be allowed on the network, and then estimating the accuracy of the network communication model based on the prediction. Such an estimate may be generated even before the model has been applied to traffic on the network. For example, steps can include observing positive data associated with a network; generating a network communication model based on the positive data; generating negative data based on the network communication model; calculating a precision of the network communication model based on the network communication model and the negative data; and calculating an accuracy of the network communication model based on one or more of the precision of the network communication model, or the network communication model and the positive data.
