Disaggregating latent causes for computer system optimization

A system, comprising:

• a data disaggregation machine learning model that, at each of a plurality of time steps:
• receives one or more data values corresponding to the time step that result from operations performed by a computer system of one or more computers, the data values being descriptive of the operations performed by the computer system;
• and
• generates, based on the data values, a descriptor of a latent cause of the data values, wherein the descriptor of the latent cause of the data values comprises a compressed representation of the data values, wherein the data disaggregation model includes a set of data disaggregation model parameters, wherein the data disaggregation model generates the descriptor of the latent cause of the data values by processing the data values according to the set of data disaggregation model parameters;
• and
• a control system model that, at each of the plurality of time steps:
• receives:
• (i) the data values, and (ii) the descriptor of the latent cause of the data values as inputs to the control system model;
• and
• generates, based on (i) the data values and (ii) the descriptor of the latent cause of the data values, embedded representations of commands to modify the operations performed by the computer system, wherein the control system model includes a set of control system model parameters, wherein the control system model generates the embedded representations of commands to modify the operations performed by the computer system by processing (i) the data values and (ii) the descriptor of the latent cause of the data values according to the set of control system model parameters;
