About this technology
Overview
Various software approaches exist that determine whether a given instrumented system is experiencing anomalous behavior. Many anomaly detection systems simply generate some type of deviation score, then rely on a subject matter expert to evaluate the data and recommend a course of action. These evaluations are often nontrivial and can lead to false alarms. NASAs Meta Monitoring System (MMS) is an add-on to these types of anomaly detection systems that helps one to better interpret such deviation scores and determine whether detected anomalous behavior is transient or systemic. While MMS was developed as an add-on to NASAs patented Inductive Monitoring System (IMS) anomaly detection software, which could be used alongside this invention to provide a complete anomaly detection solution, it can integrate with any anomaly detection system that generates deviation scores.
