US Patent 11924049 Network performance metrics anomaly detection

A method for detecting anomalies in one or more network performance metrics stream for one or more monitored object comprising using a discrete window on the stream to extract a motif from said stream for a first of said network performance metric for a first of said monitored object. Maintaining an abnormal and a normal cluster center of historical time series for said first network performance metric for said first monitored object. Classifying said motif based on a distance between said new time series and said abnormal and said normal cluster center. Determining whether an anomaly for said motif occurred based on said distance and a predetermined decision boundary.
