Machine learning model training to assist in system debug

Abstract

A process to train a machine learning model to predict fault location in a system includes generating a data set for training the machine learning model. The generating includes injecting, at a selected location of the system, a test fault into a simulation of the system using a workload, and recording a respective error syndrome generated by the simulation. Further, the generating includes repeating the injecting, at other selected location(s) of the system, of other test fault(s) into the simulation of the system, and the recording of respective, generated error syndromes. In addition, the process includes training, using the data set, the machine learning model, and providing the trained machine learning model for use in debugging the system, where the debugging includes predicting, using the trained machine learning model, a fault location within the system based on an error syndrome generated by the system due to the fault.
