Remote diagnostic system and method based on device data classification
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- classifying device diagnostic data according to a problem type, with respect to a device;
extracting at least one fault code based on a classification algorithm associated with a diagnostic server, by executing a program instruction in a data-processing system;
constructing a conditional look up table including a conditional probability for said at least one fault code, by executing a program instruction in a data-processing system;
creating a score function by summing said conditional probability associated with said at least one fault code in order to thereafter map said occurrence of said at least one fault code to a service call category with a numerically highest score function, by executing a program instruction in a data-processing system; and
matching an occurrence of said at least one fault code with respect to a solution set by a decision support server in order to thereafter automatically dispatch said solution set to a customer via a communications link, by executing a program instruction in a data-processing system.

Abstract
A remote diagnostic system and method based on device data classification. Device diagnostic data with respect to a device can be acquired and a conditional probability look up table can be constructed for each fault code associated with the device diagnostic data by a classification module. A score function can then be created by summing the conditional probabilities and an occurrence of the fault code can be mapped to a service call category with a numerically highest score function. The fault occurrence data in association with a number of time stamps and device identifiers can be stored in a data warehouse. The occurrence of fault code can be matched with respect to a solution set which can be automatically dispatched to a customer via a communications link.
