US Patent 10484406 Data visualization in self-learning networks

In one embodiment, a first device in a network maintains raw traffic flow information for the network. The first device provides a compressed summary of the raw traffic flow information to a second device in the network. The second device is configured to transform the compressed summary for presentation to a user interface. The first device detects an anomalous traffic flow based on an analysis of the raw traffic flow information using a machine learning-based anomaly detector. The first device provides at least a portion of the raw traffic flow information related to the anomalous traffic flow to the second device for presentation to the user interface.
