Claim 12:
13. A measuring device for identifying events in a material processing or production process; said measuring device comprising a sensor for high-frequency detection of a measurand and an operator network; said measurand includes one or more properties selected from the group consisting of sound, structure-borne sound, current, voltage, optical measurement values and magnetic measurement values; said operator network includes one or more of I) a decision operator configured to determine whether a component in a material processing and/or production process or in a processing and/or production device is OK or not OK, and wherein said decision operator has an input for 1) a fault pattern recognition operator, i1) an input for an event pattern recognition operator and/or ii1) an input for a free pattern operator, and wherein said decision operator has a) internal logic and internal parameters for parameterisable and/or programmable linking of the input data, and/or b) an output for an OK or not OK signal, and wherein said decision operator includes a multi-dimensional decision field; and/or II) a pattern comparison operator that has an input port to receive an input data stream and an output port to output an output data stream and/or value corresponding to a measure of an agreement between a pattern in said input data stream and one of a plurality of patterns from a pattern database, and wherein said pattern comparison operator includes a multi-dimensional characteristic map with one or more assignment regions.
