20080201397 | SEMI-AUTOMATIC SYSTEM WITH AN ITERATIVE LEARNING METHOD FOR UNCOVERING THE LEADING INDICATORS IN BUSINESS PROCESSES - Embodiments herein select performance indicators from raw data and measure the indicators over at least one time period to extract a time series of data for each of the indicators. The methods filter out redundant indicators to produce a reduced indicator set of time series of data. The embodiments detect correlations among the time series of data within the reduced indicator set by considering time-shifts between the time series of data so as to identify correlated indicators. The method determines a time order among the correlated indicators and determines a causal direction among the correlated indicators based on which of the correlated indicators occurs first in time so as to identify relative leading indicators among the correlated indicators. However, if the correlated indicators occur at approximately a same time, the determining of the causal direction is based on a relative ability of each of the indicators to predict behavior of another of the correlated indicators. The processes of determining the time order and determining the causal direction can comprise applying Dynamic Time Warping and/or Granger Causality techniques to the time series of data. | 08-21-2008 |
20080307025 | LOCATION DETERMINATION IN SENSOR NETWORKS USING TIME-WINDOW ALGORITHM - A network system and a method of determining a location of a transmitter are described. The method includes reading a signal strength of a signal transmitted by the transmitter by each of a plurality of receivers, at each frequency in a plurality of frequencies, extracting phase information using an amplitude of the signal at each of the plurality of frequencies, and applying a transform (such as a Fourier Transform) to the signal in the frequency domain to obtain a representation of the signal in the time-domain. The method further includes applying a time window to the signal in the time-domain to eliminate reflected multipath signals that arrive to the respective receivers later than a line-of-sight signal to obtain a windowed signal in the time domain, and calculating a location of the transceiver using the windowed time domain signal. | 12-11-2008 |

20110173244 | STATE FILTER - Embodiments described herein describe the construction of frequency domain estimates of generalized power density and the filters that can be constructed from those estimates. Using the concept of the Stokes vector representation of the spectral matrix in an M-dimensional vector space, a generalization of the process in which the spectral matrix may be represented by a set of trace-orthogonal matrices that are based upon a particular signal state can be produced. One aspect of the process is as follows: given a particular signal, represented as by a state vector in the space, a complete, orthonormal set of vectors can be produced that includes the signal of interest. Then, a generalized set of matrices is constructed, based upon the developed vectors, that are trace-orthogonal and which serve as a basis set for the expansion of the spectral matrix. The coefficients of this expansion form a generalized Stokes vector that represents the power in the spectral matrix associated with the various state vectors. Filters that serve to extract or suppress information about a particular state may then be constructed using the components of the generalized Stokes vectors. The effectiveness of an embodiment this filter is demonstrated using acoustic data from a microphone array. | 07-14-2011 |
