Abstract
A method for identifying an auto-complete communication pattern within a sequence of request entities includes grouping the request entities into a plurality of clusters according to a criterion. Clusters are removed from the plurality according to at least one of pattern analysis, a cluster size, and a cluster timing. Remaining clusters are identified as having an auto-complete communication pattern.
Claims13
A method for identifying an auto-complete communication pattern within a sequence of request entities, comprising:
- grouping the request entities into a plurality of clusters according to a criterion;
- removing a cluster from the plurality according to a pattern analysis by dividing each cluster into chains of sequential request entities that exclude request entities for which the pattern analysis indicates are auto-complete communications and examining the chains of each cluster and removing a selected cluster according to the examination;
- and
- identifying remaining clusters as having an auto-complete communication pattern.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed by a processing resource implement a system comprising:
- a cluster engine configured to group a sequence of request entities into a plurality of clusters according to a criterion;
- a chain engine configured to divide each cluster into chains of consecutive request entities containing fields differing by more than one character and less than a predetermined threshold;
- a remove engine configured to remove clusters from the plurality according to at least one a cluster size, a cluster timing;
- and a chain analysis;
- and
- an identification engine configured to identify a chain of a remaining cluster as having an auto-complete communication pattern.
A system for identifying an auto-complete communication pattern, the system comprising a processing resource in communication with a computer readable medium, wherein the computer readable medium contains a set of instructions and wherein the processing resource is designed to carry out the set of instructions to:
- group the request entities into a plurality of clusters according to a criterion;
- remove clusters from the plurality according to a pattern analysis by dividing each cluster into chains of sequential request entities that exclude request entities for which the pattern analysis indicates are auto-complete communications and examining the chains of each cluster and removing a selected cluster according to the examination;
- and
- identify remaining clusters as having an auto-complete communication pattern.
