A framework called CMAnomaly detects anomalies in multivariate monitoring metrics for large-scale online services by employing a collaborative machine that models metric interactions with linear time complexity. Deployed in Huawei Cloud, it achieved superior F1-scores and up to 20x faster training times compared to baselines.

Key insights

  • Explicitly modeling interactions among multivariate metrics, across both feature and temporal dimensions, is crucial for accurate anomaly detection in complex systems.
  • Computational efficiency in modeling these interactions can be achieved by reformulating them using factorization machine principles, reducing complexity from quadratic to linear time.
  • A forecasting-based approach with multi-layer perceptrons, combined with efficient interaction modeling, offers a practical balance of accuracy and speed for industrial-scale deployment.
