Computerized system for monitoring and controlling physical data-producing apparatus
First Claim
1. A computerized method for monitoring physical data, generated by a physical data generator, for anomalies, said physical data being predictable subject to predetermined information characterizing said physical data generator, the method comprising:
- using said predetermined information to compute a sequence of predicted data points which the physical data, given said predetermined information, can be expected to duplicate at each of a corresponding sequence of temporal sampling points; and
receiving the physical data and identifying wayward points within said physical data which are incongruous with the predetermined information.

Abstract
A computerized system for monitoring physical data for anomalies, which physical data are predictable given predetermined information, the system comprising a predetermined information data point generator operative to compute a sequence of model data points which the physical data, given predetermined information, can be expected to duplicate at each of a corresponding sequence of temporal sampling points; a wayward point monitor including a processor operative for monitoring the physical data including identifying wayward points within said physical data that are incongruous with the predetermined information; and an anomalous episode-prompted alarm generator operative for identifying anomalous episodes, each including a cluster of wayward points satisfying predefined anomalous episode-defining criteria and generating an alarm for each anomalous episode identified.
