Anomaly detecting and ranking of the cloud computing platform by multi-view learning (1901.09294v1)

Abstract: Anomaly detecting as an important technical in cloud computing is applied to support smooth running of the cloud platform. Traditional detecting methods based on statistic, analysis, etc. lead to the high false-alarm rate due to non-adaptive and sensitive parameters setting. We presented an online model for anomaly detecting using machine learning theory. However, most existing methods based on machine learning linked all features from difference sub-systems into a long feature vector directly, which is difficult to both exploit the complement information between sub-systems and ignore multi-view features enhancing the classification performance. Aiming to this problem, the proposed method automatic fuses multi-view features and optimize the discriminative model to enhance the accuracy. This model takes advantage of extreme learning machine (ELM) to improve detection efficiency. ELM is the single hidden layer neural network, which is transforming iterative solution the output weights to solution of linear equations and avoiding the local optimal solution. Moreover, we rank anomies according to the relationship between samples and the classification boundary, and then assigning weights for ranked anomalies, retraining the classification model finally. Our method exploits the complement information between sub-systems sufficiently, and avoids the influence from imbalance dataset, therefore, deal with various challenges from the cloud computing platform. We deploy the privately cloud platform by Openstack, verifying the proposed model and comparing results to the state-of-the-art methods with better efficiency and simplicity.
