editThough it is quite simple to analyze your data and provide quick machine learning results, gaining deep insights might require some additional planning and configuration. The guides in this section describe some best practices for generating useful machine learning results and insights from your data.
- Generating alerts for anomaly detection jobs
- Aggregating data for faster performance
- Using runtime fields in datafeeds
- Customizing detectors with custom rules
- Detecting anomalous categories of data
- Performing population analysis
- Reverting to a model snapshot
- Detecting anomalous locations in geographic data
- Mapping anomalies by location
- Adding custom URLs to machine learning results
- Anomaly detection jobs from visualizations
- Exporting and importing machine learning jobs
