+ # 🛰️ Dataset Card for **Reveal: Hardware Telemetry Dataset for Machine Learning Infrastructure Profiling and Anomaly Detection**
22
+
23
+ ## Dataset Details
24
+
25
+ ### Dataset Description
26
+
27
+ **Reveal** is a large-scale, curated dataset of **hardware telemetry** collected from high-performance computing (HPC) while running diverse machine learning (ML) workloads.
28
+ It enables reproducible research on **system-level profiling**, **unsupervised anomaly detection**, and **ML infrastructure optimization**.
29
+
30
+ The dataset accompanies the paper
31
+ 📄 *“Detecting Anomalies in Systems for AI Using Hardware Telemetry”* (Chen *et al.*, University of Oxford, 2025).
32
+ Reveal captures low-level hardware and operating system metrics—fully accessible to operators—allowing anomaly detection **without requiring workload knowledge or instrumentation**.

+ ## Uses
49
+
50
+ ### Direct Use
51
+
52
+ Reveal can be used for:
53
+ - Research on **unsupervised anomaly detection** in system telemetry
54
+ - Modeling **multivariate time-series** from hardware metrics
55
+ - Studying **cross-subsystem interactions** (CPU, GPU, memory, network, storage)
56
+ - Developing **performance-aware ML infrastructure tools**
57
+ - Training or benchmarking anomaly detection models for **AIOps** and **ML system health monitoring**
58
+
59
+ ### Out-of-Scope Use
60
+
61
+ The dataset **should not** be used for:
62
+ - Inferring or reconstructing user workloads or model behavior
63
+ - Benchmarking end-user application performance
64
+ - Any use involving personal, confidential, or proprietary data reconstruction
65
+
66
+ ---
67
+
68
+ ## Dataset Structure
69
+
70
+ Reveal consists of time-series telemetry, derived features, and automatically labeled anomaly segments.
71
+
72
+
73
+
74
+ **Core fields include:**
75
+ - `timestamp`: UTC time of sample
76
+ - `host_id`: host or node identifier
77
+ - `metric_name`: name of the measured counter
78
+ - `value`: recorded numeric value
79
+ - `subsystem`: {CPU, GPU, Memory, Network, Storage}
80
+
81

82
+
83
+ ## Dataset Creation
84
+
85
+ ### Curation Rationale
86
+
87
+ Modern ML workloads are complex and opaque to operators due to virtualization and containerization. Reveal was created to **enable infrastructure-level observability** and anomaly detection purely from hardware telemetry, without access to user workloads.
88
+
89
+ ### Source Data
90
+
91
+ #### Data Collection and Processing
92
+
93
+ - Collected using: `perf`, `procfs`, `nvidia-smi`, and standard Linux utilities
94
+ - Sampling interval: 100 ms
95
+ - ~150 raw metric types per host, expanded to ~700 time-series channels
96
+
97
+ #### Workloads and Systems
98
+
99
+ - **Workloads:** >30 ML applications (BERT, BART, ResNet, ViT, VGG, DeepSeek, LLaMA, Mistral)
100
+ - **Datasets:** GLUE/SST2, WikiSQL, PASCAL VOC, CIFAR, MNIST
101
+ - **Systems:**
102
+ - Dual-node GPU HPC cluster (NVIDIA V100 & H100, Intel Xeon CPUs, InfiniBand HDR100)
103
+
104
+ #### Who are the data producers?
105
+
106
+ All data was generated by the authors in controlled environments using synthetic workloads.
107
+ No user or private information is included.
108
+
109
+ ### Annotations
110
+
111
+ #### Personal and Sensitive Information
112
+ No personal, identifiable, or proprietary data.
113
+ All records are machine telemetry and anonymized.
114
+

116
+
117
+ ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
118
+
119
+ - Collected on specific hardware (NVIDIA/AMD CPUs, NVIDIA GPUs); behavior may differ on other architectures.
120
+ - Reflects **controlled test conditions**, not production cloud variability.
