Description
METHOD FOR ANALYZING AND PREDICTING ERROR GENERATED IN BROADCASTING SYSTEM AND APPARATUS
THEREFOR
Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for analyzing and predicting errors generated in a broadcasting system, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for analyzing and predicting errors occurring in a broadcasting system, which analyzes errors periodically generated in the broadcasting system and predicts the occurrence dates of future errors, thereby preventing the errors from occurring.
[2]
Background Art
[3] A genetic algorithm that was proposed by John Holland in 1975 is one of search techniques for finding solutions to optimization problems, etc. through models of biological evolutionary phenomena and global search heuristics.
[4] Such a genetic algorithm consists of an evaluation function (fitness function), a genetic operator, and a chromosome for expressing a solution to a problem. In the genetic algorithm, an optimal solution is obtained by gradually improving the chromosome.
[5] However, although the genetic algorithm allows search in a vast space, and can efficiently use features of yielded solutions, the speed of approach to a local optimum is generally slow because crossover and mutation operations applied to yield a solution are optionally performed.
[6] Thereupon, in order to complement the speed of approach to a local optimum, a hybrid genetic algorithm has been proposed, in which a local optimization algorithm is applied to a solution produced by crossover and mutation.
[7] This hybrid genetic algorithm employs a scheme in which a solution is positioned near a local optimum through crossover/mutation, and the solution is guided to the local optimum by using the local optimization algorithm, thereby advantageously enhancing the fine adjustment capability of the genetic algorithm and shortening a convergence time.
[8] When the genetic algorithm as mentioned above is applied to image processing, it is used for searching an image to be extracted from the background in the first step of feature extraction. That is, several pointers specified in the entire image are created as an initial population, the values of which are estimated by a fitness function. Subsequently, a given number of dominant genes are selected from among the initial population by means of a selection operation, and the values of the selected dominant genes are subjected to crossover and mutation operations, as a result of which a new population is created. Next, the created new population is reappraised through the fitness function, and a population with an optimal fitness value is selected by repeatedly performing the aforementioned processes. The finally selected population is used for feature extraction.
[9] In addition, a conventional prediction model uses a prediction model function, such as a regression analysis equation, as a statistical model, but such an analysis has a problem in that the reliability of prediction is significantly lowered when the randomness or variation of data is large.
[10] Further, the conventional prediction model using a regression analysis equation has another problem in that it must use only a fixed prediction model function because of difficulties in applying weights to the prediction model function according to the passage of time and variations of error factors.
[11] Further, it is very difficult to predict errors only by a fixed regression analysis function in a broadcasting system.

[14] Further, the present invention provides a method and apparatus for analyzing and predicting errors, which enhances the reliability of error prediction by finding weights for error factors of a multiple regression equation used as a prediction model function by means of a genetic algorithm.

Mode for the Invention
[38] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[39] FIG. 1 schematically illustrates an apparatus for analyzing and predicting errors occurring in a broadcasting system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
[40] The apparatus for analyzing and predicting errors occurring in a broadcasting system includes an error type definition module 100, an error factor extraction module 110, a prediction model function module 120, a prediction verification module 130, a correction value calculation module 140, and a function correction module 150.
[41] The error type definition module 100 defines various errors that are generated for a given period of time in the broadcasting system. With regard to this, the error type definition module 100 may define a type for each error, or may combine several errors and define a type for the combined errors.
[42] The error factor extraction module 110 analyzes error data for error types defined in the error type definition module, and extracts error factors. With regard to this, it is preferred that statistically important error sources are extracted as the error factors from the error data by analyzing error sources that are periodically collected.
[43] Also, the error factors include cycles according to the time windows, dates and frequencies of error occurrence, and may include an error source log generation pattern or system usage, such as CPU, memory and network overloads. The error factors are not fixed, and vary according to error type definition. With regard to this, it is preferred to exclude less contributive error factors from among various error factors, thereby simplifying a prediction model function and reducing the amount of calculations.
[44] The prediction model function module 120 derives a basic prediction model function from the error factors extracted in the error factor extraction module 110, and completes a prediction model function by applying a genetic algorithm to the derived basic prediction model function. [45] The following multiple regression equation may be used as the basic prediction model function: P(T+ 1) = E +E X +E X (t)+E X (t)+...+E X (t)+e(t) (where, P denotes
0 1 1 2 2 3 3 n n an error rate, t denotes a time, X to X denote error factors, E to E denote weights,
I n I n and e(t) denotes a correction value). [46] With regard to this, the weight values E to E are preferably derived as optimal
1 n weights by means of a genetic algorithm. Also, since an error occurrence pattern may vary according to the passage of time when weight values are derived using a genetic algorithm, optimal weight values must also change. Therefore, it is preferred to use the genetic algorithm in order to complete an adaptive model function suited to the passage of time and the error occurrence pattern.
[47] The prediction module 130 gives a pre-test prediction for the occurrence of a specific type of error occurring in the broadcasting system by using the prediction model function completed in the prediction model function module 120, provides the correction value calculation module 140 with a result value of the pre-test prediction, and finally measures and verifies a specific type of error for a given period of time by using the prediction model function that is corrected by the function correction module 150 based on an output value of the correction value calculation module 140.
[48] The correction value calculation module 140 compares a result value of pre-test prediction for errors occurring for a given period of time, which is provided by the prediction module 130, with the actually generated error data, and calculates a correction value for compensating for a difference between the result value and the actual error data.
[49] The function correction module 150 corrects the prediction model function by applying a correction value calculated in the correction value calculation module 140 to the prediction model function, and provides the prediction module 130 with the corrected prediction model function.
[50] Reference will now be made to a method of analyzing and predicting errors occurring in a broadcasting system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, with reference to FIG. 2 illustrating a flowchart of such a method.
[51] The method of analyzing and predicting errors occurring in a broadcasting system according to this embodiment includes an error type definition step S200, an error data analysis step S210, a function derivation step S220, a function completion step S230, a pre-test prediction step S240, a correction value calculation step S250, a function correction step S260, and a prediction step S270.
[52] In the error type definition step S200, error types are defined for various errors that have been generated for a given period of time (e.g., six months from January to June) in the broadcasting system. With regard to this, the error type may be defined for each error, or may be defined for several combined errors. [53] In the error data analysis step S210, error data for error types defined in the error type definition step are analyzed. With regard to this, it is preferred that statistically important error sources are extracted as error factors from the error data by analyzing error sources that are periodically collected.
[54] Particularly, a prediction model equation can be simplified by varying error factor extraction adaptively to circumstances, extracting factors corresponding to direct causes of errors as the error factors, and excluding less contributive error factors.
[55] In the function derivation step S220, a basic prediction model function is derived by extracting error factors from the error data analyzed in the error data analysis step S210. In particular, the error factors preferably use cycles according to the time windows, dates and frequencies of error occurrence, and may include an error source log generation pattern or system usage, such as CPU, memory and network overloads.
[56] Here, the following multiple regression equation is preferably used as the basic r prediction model function: P(T+ 1) = E 0 +E 1 X1 +E2 X 2 (t)+E 3 X 3 (t)+...+E n X n (t)+e(t)
(where, P denotes an error rate, t denotes a time, X I to Xn denote error factors, E I to En denote weights, and e(t) denotes a correction value). [57] Particularly, the weight values E 1 to E n are preferably derived as optimal weights by means of a genetic algorithm. Also, since an error occurrence pattern may vary according to the passage of time when weight values are derived using a genetic algorithm, optimal weight values must also change. Therefore, it is preferred to use the genetic algorithm in order to complete an adaptive model function suited to the passage of time and the error occurrence pattern.
[58] In the function completion step S230, a prediction model function is completed by applying a genetic algorithm, which uses error data generated for a given period of time (e.g., next five months from July t November), to the derived basic prediction model function derived in the function derivation step S220.
[59] In the pre-test prediction step S240, the prediction model function completed in the function completion step S230 is applied to pre-test prediction for errors that have been generated for a given past period of time (e.g., next one month of December), and the prediction model function is verified in this way.
[60] In the correction value calculation step S250, a correction value is calculated by comparing a result value of the pre-test prediction, which is performed for a given period of time in the pre-test prediction step S240, with error data actually generated for that period of time.
[61] In the function correction step S260, the prediction model function is corrected by applying the correction value calculated in the correction value calculation step to the prediction model function.
[62] In the prediction step S270, a specific type of error occurring in the broadcasting system is finally predicted through the prediction model function corrected in the function correction step S260.
[63] Although several preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
[64]
Industrial Applicability
[65] According to the present invention as described above, system errors are recognized in advance and a stable transmission environment is maintained by analyzing errors periodically generated in a broadcasting system and predicting the occurrence dates of future errors. Accordingly, the present invention has industrial applicability because it has sufficient marketability or business possibility as well as applicability to related services, and is also obviously practicable.
