Bing is a Microsoft search engine that currently holds approximately 30% of the search engine market. It is critical for Bing to ensure that service remains fast and reliable. This year the Microsoft Math Clinic Team implemented efficient and accurate algorithms to detect anomalies in Bing live site data. The team also created a tool to determine optimal parameters for different algorithms.
