Abstract: In one embodiment, a management system determines respective capability information of machine learning systems, the capability information including at least an action the respective machine learning system is configured to perform. The management system receives, for each of the machine learning systems, respective performance scoring information associated with the respective action, and computes a degree of freedom for each machine learning system to perform the respective action based on the performance scoring information. Accordingly, the management system then specifies the respective degree of freedom to the machine learning systems. In one embodiment, the management system comprises a management device that computes a respective trust level for the machine learning systems based on receiving the respective performance scoring feedback, and a policy engine that computes the degree of freedom based on receiving the trust level. In further embodiments, the machine learning system performs the action based on the degree of freedom.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network monitors performance data for a first predictive model. The first predictive model is used to make proactive decisions in the network. The device maintains a supervisory model based on the monitored performance data for the first predictive model. The device identifies a time period during which the supervisory model predicts that the first predictive model will perform poorly. The device causes a switchover from the first predictive model to a second predictive model at a point in time associated with the time period, in response to identifying the time period.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives data indicative of a target state for one or more distributed learning agents in the network. The device determines a difference between the target state and state information maintained by the device regarding the one or more distributed learning agents. The device calculates a synchronization penalty score for each of the one or more distributed learning agents. The device selects a particular one of the one or more distributed learning agents with which to synchronize, based on the synchronization penalty score for the selected distributed learning agent and on the determined difference between the target state and the state information regarding the selected distributed learning agent. The device initiates synchronization of the state information maintained by the device regarding the selected distributed learning agent with state information from the selected distributed learning agent.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network receives an indication that a network anomaly detected by an anomaly detector of a first node in the network is associated with scanning activity in the network. The device receives labeled traffic data associated with the detected anomaly that identifies whether the traffic data is associated with legitimate or illegitimate scanning activity. The device trains a machine learning-based classifier using the labeled traffic data to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate scanning activity in the network. The device deploys the trained classifier to the first node, to distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate scanning activity in the network.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network maintains a plurality of anomaly detection models for different sets of aggregated traffic data regarding traffic in the network. The device determines a measure of confidence in a particular one of the anomaly detection models that evaluates a particular set of aggregated traffic data. The device dynamically replaces the particular anomaly detection model with a second anomaly detection model configured to evaluate the particular set of aggregated traffic data and has a different model capacity than that of the particular anomaly detection model. The device provides an anomaly event notification to a supervisory controller based on a combined output of the second anomaly detection model and of one or more of the anomaly detection models in the plurality of anomaly detection models.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a device in a network monitors a selective anomaly forwarding mechanism deployed in the network. The selective anomaly forwarding mechanism causes a participating node in the mechanism to selectively forward detected network anomalies to the device. The device monitors one or more resources of the network. The device determines an adjustment to the selective anomaly forwarding mechanism based on the one or more monitored resources of the network. The device implements the determined adjustment to the selective anomaly forwarding mechanism.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a central device receives a routing strategy instruction that specifies a predictability threshold for communication delays in the network. The device estimates communication delays for a plurality of paths in the network and determines predictability measurements for the estimated delays. The device also selects, from among the plurality of paths, a particular path that has a predictability measurement that satisfies the predictability threshold and has a minimal estimated delay. The central device further installs the particular path at one or more other devices in the network.

Abstract: In one embodiment, network information associated with a plurality of nodes in a network is received at a device in a network. From the plurality of nodes, a node is selected based on a determination that the selected node is an outlier among the plurality of nodes according to the received network information. Then, a probe is sent to the selected node, and in response to the probe, a performance metric is received from the selected node at the device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, liveness reporting is performed using a distributed approach. The embodiments include a management node that is configured to receive a message containing an indication of activity or inactivity of one or more subject nodes, and determine which of the one or more subject nodes are active based on the received message. The indication is derived from one or more observer nodes observing network traffic of the one or more subject nodes. The embodiments further include one or more observer nodes configured to observe network traffic of the one or more subject nodes in the network, generate the message containing the indication of activity or inactivity of the one or more subject nodes, and transmit the message to the management node.

Abstract: In one embodiment, techniques are shown and described relating to a point-to-multipoint communication infrastructure for expert-based knowledge feed-back using learning machines. A learning machine may communicate an expert discovery request into a network to discover one or more experts, and then receive from the one or more experts, one or more expert discovery responses. Based on the one or more received expert discovery responses, the learning machine may then build a dynamic multicast tree of experts to assist the learning machine in a computer network.
