Generic event stream processing for machine learning

Abstract:

A method includes establishing a network connection with a source computing device and an application services computing device, receiving, via the network connection, a source event stream at the application services computing device, and extracting a sample of the source event stream. The method further includes partitioning the sample of the source event stream into fields, identifying a field data type of a field of the multiple fields in the sample, identifying a distribution of values of the field in the sample, and extrapolating, from the sample of the source event stream, extrapolated functions for the fields. Extrapolating an extrapolated function is dependent on the field data type and the distribution of the field. The method further includes transforming, based on the plurality of extrapolated functions in the configuration file, the source event stream to obtain a transformed event stream, and analyzing, by a target machine learning model, the transformed event stream.
