Claim 18:
19. A system including:
means for determining a specific value change for an object, the specific value change corresponding to a difference in value for the object at a start of a specific interval and at an end of the specific interval, the specific interval identified via a specific interval machine code;
means for establishing a data structure including machine-coded categories each identified via a respective category machine code, each machine-coded category corresponding to a respective change size range;
means for determining, after establishing the data structure, that a stop condition for a range-determination algorithm has occurred;
adjusting, based on the stop condition, a respective change size range for at least one of the machine-coded categories;
means for determining a specific change size range for the specific value change;
means for determining, based on the specific change size range, to place the specific value change in a specific machine-coded category from among the machine-coded categories of the data structure;
means for committing the specific value change to the specific machine-coded category by concatenating the specific interval machine code with a specific category machine code corresponding to the specific machine-coded category to generate a specific value change code;
means for storing the specific value change code within the data structure, thereby compressing value change data by storing change size range data in lieu of individual change size data;
means for receiving a request for a validation of a transaction including the object, the transaction occurring within the specific interval;
means for accessing the data structure to analyze a duration spanning multiple intervals including the specific interval;
means for determining that occupancy in the specific machine coded category of the data structure is below a defined threshold for the duration;
means for determining based on the below-threshold occupancy, that the specific value change includes an abnormal value change; and
means for flagging, based on determining that the specific value change includes the abnormal value change, the specific interval without providing the validation.
