The core step of any AIOps workflow is anomaly detection, typically performed on high-volume heterogeneous data such as log messages (logs), metrics (e.g., CPU utilization), and distributed traces. In this paper, we propose a method for reliable and practical anomaly detection from system logs. It overcomes the common disadvantage of related works, i.e., the need for a large amount of manually labeled training data, by building an anomaly detection model with log instructions from the source code of 1000+ GitHub projects. The instructions from diverse systems contain rich and heterogenous information about many different normal and abnormal IT events and serve as a foundation for anomaly detection. The proposed method, named ADLILog, combines the log instructions and the data from the system of interest (target system) to learn a deep neural network model through a two-phase learning procedure. The experimental results show that ADLILog outperforms the related approaches by up to 60% on the F1 score while satisfying core non-functional requirements for industrial deployments such as unsupervised design, efficient model updates, and small model sizes.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.03206v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2207.03206v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"leveraging-log-instructions-in-log-based","repo_url":"https://github.com/adlilog/adlilog","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"anomaly-detection","task_name":"Anomaly Detection"},{"task_slug":null,"task_name":"CPU"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
