METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING ANOMALOUS PROCESS BEHAVIOR
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for learning a behavior model of a workflow, the behavior model being associated with at least on value falling within a first predetermined range, and comprising a set of paths, wherein a path comprises a set of nodes and a set of transitions and a union of the paths form a directed graph corresponding to the workflow, the method comprising:
- for each path in the behavior model;
identifying a set of instances of the workflow among all instances of the workflow, wherein each instance belonging to the set of instances is associated with a value falling within a first predetermined range and any instance belonging to the set of instances corresponds to the path;
computing a likelihood of the path as a function of the number of instances so identified; and
assigning a weight to each transition of the set of transitions as a function of the likelihood of the paths comprising the transition.
