  2. 4 BUILD SOFTWARE TO TEST SOFTWARE QA Meetup Unsupervised Learning

    A machine learning technique in which the users do not need to supervise the model. It is a type of algorithm that learns patterns from untagged data: https://towardsdatascience.com/supervised-vs-unsupervised-learning-in-2-minutes-72dad148f242 4
  3. 5 BUILD SOFTWARE TO TEST SOFTWARE QA Meetup Unsupervised Learning

    applications • Audience segmentation • Customer service personalization • Recommender Engines • Anomaly detection • Pattern recognition • Inventory management https://towardsdatascience.com/supervised-vs-unsupervised-learning-in-2-minutes-72dad148f242 5
  4. 6 BUILD SOFTWARE TO TEST SOFTWARE QA Meetup Supervised Learning

    The algorithm uses labeled datasets to train how to classify data or predict outcomes accurately. It is a function that maps an input to an output based on example input-output pairs. https://www.guru99.com/supervised-vs-unsupervised-learning.html 6

    anomaly detection An anomaly is something that differs from a norm: • a deviation • an exception • a rare occurrence or event that doesn’t fit into the pattern • anything that seems suspicious 16 https://jhui.github.io/2017/01/15/Machine-learning-anomaly/
  9. 19 BUILD SOFTWARE TO TEST SOFTWARE QA Meetup Unsupervised learning

    for anomaly detection • A detection model is constructed using historical logs, which describe a variety of events of software systems. The model is used for: ◦ detecting various types of system behavior anomalies ◦ determining statistical load parameters • Another way is to extract semantic information of log events. The anomalies are detected from the contextual information in the log sequences based on the importance of different log events. 19

    virtual assistant What new errors appeared today? Are there any traces of recent bugs we fixed? Especially, related to the issue we saw yesterday? When was the last major change in logs structure and characteristics? What applications logged an abnormal number of errors today? What kind of anomaly was detected in recent logs? 23 https://www.freepik.com/
