US Patent 11475368 Machine learning model abstraction layer for runtime efficiency

Systems and methods include training a machine learning model with data for identifying features in monitored traffic in a network; analyzing the trained machine learning model to identify information overhead therein, wherein the information overhead is utilized in part for the training; removing the information overhead in the machine learning model; and providing the machine learning model for runtime use for identifying the features in the monitored traffic, with the removed information overhead from the machine learning model.
