Abstract
In particular embodiments, a method includes accessing a first binary decision diagram (BDD) representing data streams from sensors, accessing a second BDD representing health states associated with specified data ranges, and constructing a third BDD by performing an AND operation between the first and second BDDs.
Claims31
A method comprising:
- by one or more computing devices,
- accessing a first binary decision diagram (BDD) representing a plurality of health states and a plurality of data ranges, wherein each of the plurality of data ranges is associated with one of the plurality of health states;
- accessing a second BDD representing first sensor data from one or more first sensors;
- and
- constructing a third BDD by performing an AND operation between the first BDD and the second BDD, wherein:
- the third BDD represents specific first sensor data that fall within the plurality of data ranges;
- and
- each of the specific first sensor data that falls within one of the plurality of data ranges is annotated with one of the plurality of health states associated with the one data range.
5 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and a memory coupled to the processors comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors operable when executing the instructions to:
- access a first binary decision diagram (BDD) representing a plurality of health states and a plurality of data ranges, wherein each of the plurality of data ranges is associated with one of the plurality of health states;
- access a second BDD representing first sensor data from one or more first sensors;
- and
- construct a third BDD by performing an AND operation between the first BDD and the second BDD, wherein:
- the third BDD represents specific first sensor data that fall within the plurality of data ranges;
- and
- each of the specific first sensor data that falls within one of the plurality of data ranges is annotated with one of the plurality of health states associated with the one data range.
6 more elements
One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:
- access a first binary decision diagram (BDD) representing a plurality of health states and a plurality of data ranges, wherein each of the plurality of data ranges is associated with one of the plurality of health states;
- access a second BDD representing first sensor data from one or more first sensors;
- and
- construct a third BDD by performing an AND operation between the first BDD and the second BDD, wherein:
- the third BDD represents specific first sensor data that fall within the plurality of data ranges;
- and
- each of the specific first sensor data that falls within one of the plurality of data ranges is annotated with one of the plurality of health states associated with the one data range.
4 more elements
