Method for managing a plurality of events

A method for managing a plurality of events, wherein each event comprises physical attributes and logical attributes, the method comprising the steps of:

• creating tuples, wherein each tuple corresponds to events having all the same logical attributes;
• providing a set of hierarchized relations between tuples, wherein combinations of two tuples form a pair of tuples, by means of an unsupervised machine learning pipeline algorithm, wherein parent-child relations are provided between tuples, by:
• creating a plurality of co-occurrence matrices, each co-occurrence matrix reflecting different time intervals, wherein each column corresponds with a tuple and each row corresponds with a time window, so each matrix entry represents the number of times that an event corresponding to each tuple appears in each time window;
• successively applying a heuristic function to each matrix entry of said plurality of co-occurrence matrices to obtain a co-occurrence probabilistic score for each pair of tuples, wherein the probabilistic score indicates the probability that one tuple of the pair, referred to as child tuple, co-occurs with the other tuple of the pair, referred to as parent tuple;
• and
• using the probabilistic score of each pair of tuples to quantify the strength of the parent-child relations;
• classifying the tuples in families, each family contains all the tuples related according to the parent-child relation provided by the unsupervised machine learning pipeline algorithm;
• identifying the parent tuple of each family, defined as the tuple which has at least one child and has no parent;
• and
• presenting the parent tuple instances of each family, together with the physical attributes of the events associated to each parent tuple instance of each family.
