Network graph representation of physically connected network
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of generating a network graph representation of a physically connected network, the method comprising:
- selecting a selected sensor among a plurality of sensors arranged along the physically connected network;
searching, using a processor, a time-varying data signal from the selected sensor for measurement patterns;
identifying, using the processor, candidate sensors among the plurality of sensors that are candidates for being directly connected with the selected sensor based on each of the candidate sensors outputting a respective candidate time-varying data signal with candidate patterns that match the measurement patterns of the time-varying data signal of the selected sensor;
constructing possible graph sub-structures including the selected sensor and the candidate sensors;
determining a feasible graph sub-structure based on the possible graph sub-structure and spatial placement of each of the selected sensor and the candidate sensors; and
generating the network graph representation based on iteratively determining the feasible graph sub-structure based on selecting a different one of the plurality of sensors as the selected sensor.

Abstract
A method and system to generate a network graph representation of a physically connected network include selecting a selected sensor among a plurality of sensors arranged along the physically connected network, searching a time-varying data signal from the selected sensor for measurement patterns; identifying candidate sensors among the plurality of sensors that are candidates for being directly connected with the selected sensor based on each of the candidate sensors outputting a respective candidate time-varying data signal with candidate patterns that match the measurement patterns of the time-varying data signal, and constructing possible graph sub-structures including the selected sensor and the candidate sensors. Determining a feasible graph sub-structure is based on the possible graph sub-structure and spatial placement of each of the selected sensor and the candidate sensors, and generating the network graph representation is by iteratively determining the feasible graph sub-structure by selecting a different sensor as the selected sensor.
