Abstract
A system and method including receiving sets of sensor data associated with sensors configured to monitor one or more systems. Sensor fingerprints are generated for each set of sensor data based on the sensor data. At least one proximity value is computed for each sensor by comparing the fingerprint of that sensor with another fingerprint. Clusters of similar sensors are identified based at least upon the proximity values of the sensors.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a set of sensor data associated with a sensor, wherein the sensor is configured to monitor equipment;
- generating a sensor fingerprint for the sensor based at least in part on the set of sensor data;
- computing at least one proximity value for the sensor, wherein computing the at least one proximity value comprises comparing the sensor fingerprint to another fingerprint;
- and
- identifying a similarity cluster for the sensor based at least upon the at least one proximity value for the sensor.
A system comprising:
- one or more processing units;
- and
- one or more memory units coupled to the one or more processing units,
- wherein:
- the one or more memory units are configured to store instructions,
- the one or more processing units are configured to execute the instructions causing the system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a set of sensor data associated with a sensor, wherein the sensor is configured to monitor equipment;
- generating a sensor fingerprint for the sensor based at least in part on the set of sensor data;
- computing at least one proximity value for the sensor, wherein computing the at least one proximity value comprises comparing the sensor fingerprint to another fingerprint;
- and
- identifying a similarity cluster for the sensor based at least upon the at least one proximity value for the sensor.
At least one non-transitory, machine-accessible storage medium having instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions are configured, when executed on a machine, to cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a set of sensor data associated with a sensor, wherein the sensor is configured to monitor equipment;
- generating a sensor fingerprint for the sensor based at least in part on the set of sensor data;
- computing at least one proximity value for the sensor, wherein computing the at least one proximity value comprises comparing the sensor fingerprint to another fingerprint;
- and
- identifying a similarity cluster for the sensor based at least upon the at least one proximity value for the sensor.
