Patent ID: 8838519

Claim:
A machine-readable non-transitory data storage device having a series of preprogrammed code which, when loaded on a computer apparatus, causes the computing apparatus to: receive a stream of time-serial numeric data representing a physical object; convert the data to structured data; and analyze the structured network with graph-theoretic analysis to detect condition change in the time-serial numerical data and to quantify changes among phase-space dynamical states of the structured data, wherein the analysis of the structured network comprises: partitioning the received data to define the plurality of phase-space dynamical states, for each phase-space dynamical state, each state represented as a node in a mathematical graph and each state-to-state transition represented as a link in the mathematical graph; computing the dissimilarity measures between the mathematical graphs of the phase-space dynamical states; establishing, using the phase-state dynamical states, a baseline state and obtaining average dissimilarity between each contiguous phase-space dynamical state and the baseline state; classifying dynamical change based on a plurality of successive occurrences of phase-space dynamical states above a threshold; and training the classification of dynamical change to minimize prediction distance.
