摘要:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates high-sensitivity detection of an anomaly in telemetry data from an electronic system using a telemetric impulsional response fingerprint of the telemetry data. During operation, the system applies a sudden impulse step change to one or more operational parameters of the electronic system during operation. Next, the system generates a three-dimensional (3D) telemetric impulsional response fingerprint (TIRF) surface from a dynamic response in the telemetry data to the sudden impulse step change. The system then determines from the 3D TIRF surface whether the telemetry data contains an anomaly.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for detecting vibrations from a component. The system operates by coupling vibrations from a component to a membrane using a flexible connecting line. The membrane converts the vibrations into acoustic waves that are transmitted through a medium. Finally, a microphone detects the acoustic waves in the medium and converts the acoustic waves into electrical signals.

A system that reduces the size of a design data set. During this design data set reduction operation, the system computes a decision boundary which separates a first group of data patterns in a training data set from a second group of data patterns in the training data set. For each data pattern in the training data set, the system determines if removing the data pattern from the training data set substantially affects the resulting decision boundary. If so, the system marks the data pattern as a key pattern. The system then removes all data patterns that are not marked as key patterns to produce a reduced training data set which represents the decision boundary.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for predicting a remaining useful life (RUL) for a computer system. The system starts by collecting values for at least one telemetry metric from the computer system while the computer system is operating. The system then uses the collected values to generate a RUL prediction for the computer system or a component within the computer system

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that performs high-level parallelization of large scale quadratic-problem (QP) optimization. During operation, the system receives a training dataset comprised of a number of data vectors. The system first determines to what extent each data vector violates conditions associated with a current support vector machine (SVM). The system then sorts the data vectors based on each data vector's degree of violation. Next, the system partitions the sorted data vectors into a number of prioritized subsets, wherein the subset with the highest priority contains the largest number of violators with the highest degree of violation. The system subsequently solves in parallel a QP optimization problem for each subset based on the subset's priority. The system then constructs a new SVM to replace the current SVM based on the QP optimization solution for each subset.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a monitoring system that detects anomalies in data gathered from sensors in a computer system. During operation, the monitoring system samples data from a plurality of sensors located at various sampling points throughout the computer system. Next, the monitoring system interpolates the data from the sampling points to produce a real-time digitized surface. The monitoring system then subtracts a reference digitized surface from the real-time digitized surface to produce a residual digitized surface. Finally, the monitoring system applies a multi-dimensional sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) to the residual digitized surface to detect anomalies in the residual digitized surface which indicate an impending failure of the computer system.

Some embodiments of the present invention provide a system that characterizes a response of a component in a computer system to vibrations generated by the computer system. First, the system measures the response of the component to vibrations in a frequency range while the component is located outside of the computer system. The system also measures vibrations generated by the computer system in the frequency range during operation of the computer system, wherein the vibrations are measured at a location in the computer system which is configured to receive the component. The system then characterizes the response of the component to vibrations generated by the computer system based on the measured response of the component to vibrations in the frequency range and the measured vibrations in the frequency range at the location.
