Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for clustering heterogeneous events. During operation, the system finds a partition of events into clusters such that each cluster includes a set of events. In addition, the system estimates probability distributions for various properties of events associated with each cluster. The system obtains heterogeneous event data, and analyzes the heterogeneous event data to determine the distribution of event properties associated with clusters and to assign events to clusters.
