Techniques for predicting states may include: receiving data sets of counter values, wherein each counter values denotes a number of times a particular code flow point associated with the counter value is executed at runtime during a specified time period; receiving images generated from the data sets; labeling each of the images with state information, wherein first state information associated with a first image indicates that the first image is associated with a first error state of a system or an application; training a neural network using the images to recognize the first state; receiving a next image generated from another data set; and predicting, by the neural network and in accordance with the next image, whether the system or the application is expected to transition into the first state. In at least one embodiment, the foregoing processing may optionally use matrices generated from the data sets rather than images.
