Automated Anomaly Detection And Localization System For A Microservices Based Cloud System, Priyanka Prakash Naikade Jul 2020

Automated Anomaly Detection And Localization System For A Microservices Based Cloud System, Priyanka Prakash Naikade

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Context: With an increasing number of applications running on a microservices-based cloud system (such as AWS, GCP, IBM Cloud), it is challenging for the cloud providers to offer uninterrupted services with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) factors. Problem Statement: Existing monitoring frameworks often do not detect critical defects among a large volume of issues generated, thus affecting recovery response times and usage of maintenance human resource. Also, manually tracing the root causes of the issues requires a significant amount of time. Objective: The objective of this work is to: (i) detect performance anomalies, in real-time, through monitoring KPIs (Key Performance …


A Hybrid Approach To Procedural Dungeon Generation, Mathias Paul Babin Jun 2020

A Hybrid Approach To Procedural Dungeon Generation, Mathias Paul Babin

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

This thesis presents a novel approach to the Procedural Content Generation (PCG) of both maze and dungeon environments. The solution we propose in this thesis borrows techniques from both Procedural Content Generation via Machine Learning as well as Constructive PCG methods. The approach we take involves decomposing the problem of level generation into a series of stages which begins with the production of macro-level functional structures and ends with micro-level aesthetic details; specifically, we train a Deep Convolutional Neural Network to produce high-quality mazes, which in turn, are transformed into the rooms of larger dungeon levels using a constructive algorithm. …
