This invention helps people make sense of large amounts of event data, like machine logs. It first shows you groups of events, and then you tell the system what specific details or patterns to look for within those events. The system then uses your instructions to re-group the data, showing you new, more refined clusters based on what you care about. The first claim narrows this to raw machine data.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread application of advanced AI and large language models, which could now significantly enhance the system's ability to automatically suggest or generate complex extraction rules from raw machine data or user interactions, making the process more intuitive and powerful.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
Reinvent this with AIEvery morning we go through millions of abandoned patents and pick out 15 worth your time. This was one of today’s.
