  • Systems and methods for diagnosing the cause of trend shifts in performance data
    Patent number: 7031878
    Abstract: Automated systems and methods for diagnosing the cause of a trend shift in performance data associated with a system including selecting a fuzzy model describing how the mean associated with a parameter shifts when a predetermined problem occurs and receiving performance data associated with the system. The diagnostic systems and methods also including applying a preferred set of piecewise regressions. The diagnostic systems and methods further including selecting a start date and selecting data sets near the start date and an end date that have a relatively large size without violating normal scatter. The diagnostic systems and methods still further including measuring the mean shift between a plurality of samples using one or more statistical tests and combining the results with the fuzzy model to achieve a diagnosis.
