Abstract: a computer-implemented method for automatically recommending an online meeting reconnection time for one or more online meeting participants that are disconnected. the method collects disconnection information for one or more online meeting participants over time as historical data. the method constructs a predictive model for the one or more online meeting participants based on the historical data and predicts a reconnection time for the one or more online meeting participants based on the predictive model. the method notifies the one or more online meeting participants when a disconnected participant is expected to return online and updates the online meeting agenda if the disconnected participant's reconnection time exceeds a predefined threshold.

Abstract: a computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for log anomaly detection. a computer receives a windowed log of incoming raw log messages. a computer compares statistical distribution metrics of entities in the windowed log with a statistical distribution extracted from a real-time statistical model for the entities. in response to the statistical distribution metrics being statistically different from the statistical distribution extracted from the real-time statistical model for the entities, a computer tags the windowed log as an entity anomaly. a computer computes a distance between an average word embedding vector in the windowed log and a statistical distribution extracted form a real-time statistical model for word embeddings. in response to the distance being greater than a predetermined threshold, a computer tags the windowed log as a word embedding anomaly. a computer sends to a user an alert with an anomaly severity level.
