    摘要: One embodiment provides a system that analyzes a target electromagnetic signal radiating from a monitored system. During operation, the system monitors the target electromagnetic signal using a set of antennas to obtain a set of received target electromagnetic signals from the monitored system. Next, the system calculates a weighted mean of the received target electromagnetic signals using a first pattern-recognition model. The system then subtracts the received target electromagnetic signals from the weighted mean of the received target electromagnetic signals to obtain a set of noise-reduced signals for the monitored system. Finally, the system assesses the integrity of the monitored system by analyzing the noise-reduced signals using a second pattern-recognition model.

    摘要: Some embodiments of the present invention provide a system that characterizes a computer system using a pattern-recognition model. First, values for an environmental parameter are monitored from a set of sensors associated with the computer system. Then, a baseline for the environmental parameter is calculated based on the monitored values from a subset of the set of sensors. Next, the baseline is subtracted from the monitored values from sensors in the set of sensors to produce compensated values. Then, the compensated values are used as inputs to the pattern-recognition model, which produces estimates for the compensated values based on correlations between the compensated values learned during a training phase. Next, residuals are calculated by subtracting the estimates for the compensated values from the compensated values. Then, the residuals are analyzed to characterize the computer system.

    摘要: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for predicting a remaining useful life (RUL) for a component in a set of components within a computer system. The system starts by collecting values of at least one degradation-related parameter associated with the operation of a monitored component within the computer system. Note that the degradation-related parameter is a direct measurement of a degree of degradation of the monitored component. The system additionally collects values of at least one stress-based parameter from the computer system. Note that the stress-based parameter measures an accumulative stress in the operating environment of the set of components which can cause degradation of the set of components. The system then uses the values of the at least one degradation-related parameter and the values of the at least one stress-based parameter to predict an RUL for a component in the set of components.

    摘要: A system that mitigates quantization effects in quantized telemetry signals. During operation, the system monitors a set of quantized telemetry signals. For a given quantized telemetry signal in the set of quantized telemetry signals, the system uses a set of models to generate a set of estimates for the given quantized telemetry signal from the other monitored quantized telemetry signals, wherein each model in the set of models was initialized using a different randomly selected subset of a training dataset. The system then averages the set of estimates to produce an estimated signal for the given quantized telemetry signal.
