First Claim
1. A device for detecting an operating state of a machine, comprising:
- at least one sensor for making available in each case an output value relating to a current parameter of a component of the machine; and
a processing unit connected to the at least one sensor, wherein said processing unit is configurable to derive information about the operating state of the machine using a Hidden Markov Model and based at least in part on at least one of;
at least one measured value of the at least one sensor or at least one value derived from the at least one sensor;
wherein the processing unit is further configurable to be supplied with a state transition matrix A, elements of an emission probability matrix B for the probability that an observation is conditioned by a certain state, and a vector for describing an input state, in order to derive at least one operating state of the machine therefrom, wherein the processing unit is further configurable to derive elements of the emission probability matrix B from the measured values of the at least one sensor.

Abstract
A device for detecting the operating state of a machine comprises one or more sensors for making available in each case an output value relating to a current parameter of a component of the machine, and a processing unit which is connected to the sensors and is programmed to derive information about the operating state of machine using a Hidden Markov Model and on the basis of the measured values of the sensors and/or values derived therefrom. The processing unit can be supplied with a state transition matrix A, elements of an emission probability matrix B for the probability that an observation is conditioned by a certain state, and a vector π for describing an input state, in order to derive the operating states of the machine therefrom. The processing unit is programmed to derive elements of the emission probability matrix B from the measured values of the sensors.
