Substructure-aware Log Anomaly Detection
Summary: SLAD detects code-file-level log anomalies by mining representative graph substructures with Monte Carlo Tree Search, then distilling and softly pruning them for node inference. It preserves subtle event/structural/location changes while achieving 15× faster inference than substructure-based methods. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
