Abstract(in English) There is an increasing trend to use machine learning models for monitoring anomalous behavior of CPU, memory, network, and disk. However, they fail to detect anomalies immediately after abrupt concept drifts unless re-trained withpost drift data. It may take from days to weeks to collect post drift data, interrupting accurate monitoring. We identify thatit is possible to avoid re-training if the concept drifts were caused by events such as change in number of CPU, memorysize, unscheduled deletion of log files, transfer of files, etc. Since these events are expected to become more frequent dueto adoption of container based microservice architecture, it is important to enable accurate anomaly detection immediatelyafter these events. Our proposed method includes two major steps. First, we confirm that an abrupt concept drift is due toabove-mentioned events. Second, we find a transformation function which can undo the change in data distribution caused bythese events. This allows us to use the same model even after the concept drift. We evaluated our method against well-knownadaptive methods such as Adaptive Random Forest. We found that Adaptive Random Forest takes 2 weeks to adapt while theproposed method can adapt immediately.
