Log anomaly detection is a key component in the field of artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps). Considering log data of variant domains, retraining the whole network for unknown domains is inefficient in real industrial scenarios. However, previous deep models merely focused on extracting the semantics of log sequences in the same domain, leading to poor generalization on multi-domain logs. To alleviate this issue, we propose a unified Transformer-based framework for Log anomaly detection (LogFormer) to improve the generalization ability across different domains, where we establish a two-stage process including the pre-training and adapter-based tuning stage. Specifically, our model is first pre-trained on the source domain to obtain shared semantic knowledge of log data. Then, we transfer such knowledge to the target domain via shared parameters. Besides, the Log-Attention module is proposed to supplement the information ignored by the log-paring. The proposed method is evaluated on three public and one real-world datasets. Experimental results on multiple benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our LogFormer with fewer trainable parameters and lower training costs.

Scientific documents record research findings and valuable human knowledge, comprising a vast corpus of high-quality data. Leveraging multi-modality data extracted from these documents and assessing large models' abilities to handle scientific document-oriented tasks is therefore meaningful. Despite promising advancements, large models still perform poorly on multi-page scientific document extraction and understanding tasks, and their capacity to process within-document data formats such as charts and equations remains under-explored. To address these issues, we present DocGenome, a structured document benchmark constructed by annotating 500K scientific documents from 153 disciplines in the arXiv open-access community, using our custom auto-labeling pipeline. DocGenome features four key characteristics: 1) Completeness: It is the first dataset to structure data from all modalities including 13 layout attributes along with their LaTeX source codes. 2) Logicality: It provides 6 logical relationships between different entities within each scientific document. 3) Diversity: It covers various document-oriented tasks, including document classification, visual grounding, document layout detection, document transformation, open-ended single-page QA and multi-page QA. 4) Correctness: It undergoes rigorous quality control checks conducted by a specialized team. We conduct extensive experiments to demonstrate the advantages of DocGenome and objectively evaluate the performance of large models on our benchmark.

Log anomaly detection is a key component in the field of artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps). Considering log data of variant domains, retraining the whole network for unknown domains is inefficient in real industrial scenarios especially for low-resource domains. However, previous deep models merely focused on extracting the semantics of log sequence in the same domain, leading to poor generalization on multi-domain logs. Therefore, we propose a unified Transformer-based framework for log anomaly detection (\ourmethod{}), which is comprised of the pretraining and adapter-based tuning stage. Our model is first pretrained on the source domain to obtain shared semantic knowledge of log data. Then, we transfer the pretrained model to the target domain via the adapter-based tuning. The proposed method is evaluated on three public datasets including one source domain and two target domains. The experimental results demonstrate that our simple yet efficient approach, with fewer trainable parameters and lower training costs in the target domain, achieves state-of-the-art performance on three benchmarks.

Log analysis is an important technique that engineers use for troubleshooting faults of large-scale service-oriented systems. In this study, we propose a novel semi-supervised log-based anomaly detection approach, LogDP, which utilizes the dependency relationships among log events and proximity among log sequences to detect the anomalies in massive unlabeled log data. LogDP divides log events into dependent and independent events, then learns normal patterns of dependent events using dependency and independent events using proximity. Events violating any normal pattern are identified as anomalies. By combining dependency and proximity, LogDP is able to achieve high detection accuracy. Extensive experiments have been conducted on real-world datasets, and the results show that LogDP outperforms six state-of-the-art methods.
