Patent attributes
Embodiments of the invention are directed to techniques for detecting anomalous values in data streams using forecasting models. In some embodiments, a computer can receive a value of a data stream comprising a plurality of data values, where the received value corresponds to a time interval and previously received values each correspond to a previous time interval. Models can be selected based on the time interval, where each of the models has a different periodicity. For each of the selected models, the computer may generate a score by generating a prediction value based on the model and generating the score based on the prediction value and the received value. A final score can then be generated based on the scores. Next, a score threshold can be generated. If the final score exceeds the score threshold, the computer may generate a notification that indicates that the data value is an anomaly.
