[Request a Demo](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/contact-us) ## Extend Kalix Analytics with Automated and Real-Time Anomaly Detection Filtering issues from the mass of data you are exposed to is a growing challenge for telecommunications operators. With today’s network complexity, manual investigations and legacy alerting mechanisms are not enough to identify and categorize anomalies at the scale needed. At Polystar, we’ve introduced an automated approach that enables your team to operate more efficiently, exposing and prioritizing anomalies, both individually and in clusters.  [Talk to a Solution Expert](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/contact-us) [](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/contact-us) ## AI-Powered Anomaly Detection: Explained AI-powered anomaly detection means that you can automatically track important network and service KPIs in real-time, so you can focus on monitoring those that matter to your business. Anomalies represent deviations from expected network, traffic, service, and customer experience data in your network, indicating service-impacting issues. AI-powered algorithms will learn from your data and calculate the needed thresholds to automatically identify anomalies for different time series KPIs. Anomalies are then grouped and tagged with priority indicators and show the number of customers impacted.

[Contact Polystar](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/contact-us) ## How AI-Enabled Anomaly Detection Impacts Telecom Costs AI-powered anomaly detection lowers telecom operating costs in multiple ways: - **Preventative versus reactive maintenance:** by spotting issues early and identifying the root cause, repairs can be made to the network before larger breakdowns and more expensive fixes. Targeted issue identification also means fewer resources are wasted during repairs. - **Fraud prevention:** Anomalous traffic and usage data can point to unauthorized network users - **Increased operational efficiency:** AI and machine learning capabilities mean that more advanced, adaptive data can be gathered about network usage and performance, which can be used to increase network efficiency. Polystar’s software tools also reduce the number of human hours needed to analyze and monitor data, saving further labor costs so important human attention can be allocated to tasks that most need it. ## More Use Cases for Telecom Operations [](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/use-cases/ai-powered-forecasting-for-network-capacity-management) ### [AI-Powered Forecasting for Network Capacity Management](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/polystar/use-cases/ai-powered-forecasting-for-network-capacity-management) **Predict Network Behavior with Data-Driven Accuracy** AI/ML application of [Kalix Analytics](/polystar/products/kalix-analytics) models analyze historical and real-time data to forecast demand and capacity needs, enabling proactive optimization, reduced risk, and efficient resource allocation across the network.

Unlike manual monitoring, AI can detect subtle deviations across large volumes of data in real time, helping telecom operators identify issues earlier and respond faster before customers are affected. Anomaly detection helps reduce Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) by identifying issues as soon as they emerge and providing immediate visibility into abnormal network or service behavior. Advanced AI models can correlate related events, highlight likely root causes, and prioritize incidents based on impact. This enables operations teams to troubleshoot more efficiently, accelerate resolution times, and minimize service disruptions. Traditional threshold monitoring relies on predefined limits and generates alerts only when a KPI exceeds a set value. AI anomaly detection learns normal behavior patterns from historical and real-time data and can identify unexpected changes even when thresholds are not breached. This enables earlier detection of emerging issues, adapts to changing network conditions, and reduces the need for constant manual threshold tuning. False positives often occur when monitoring systems flag expected or harmless changes as faults. Common causes include static thresholds, seasonal traffic variations, planned maintenance activities, network upgrades, and temporary usage spikes. AI-driven assurance solutions reduce false positives by understanding normal operational patterns, incorporating context, and distinguishing genuine service risks from routine fluctuations, helping teams focus on the most important issues. ## Want to get started with AI Network anomaly detection?
