  • Outlier data point detection
    Patent number: 9195713
    Abstract: New data points are added to a streaming window of data points and existing data points are removed from the window over time. Each data point has a value for each of one or more dimensions. Each time a given new data point is added to the window or a given existing data point is removed from the window, one or more outlier detection data structures are updated. Each outlier detection data structure encompasses the data points within the streaming window for a corresponding dimension. The outlier detection data structures are used to detect outlier data points within the window over selected one or more dimensions.

  • Method and system for securely transmitting deterrent data
    Patent number: 9195837
    Abstract: A method for securely transmitting deterrent data includes generating a deterrent having a predesigned number and configuration of glyphs having deterrent data therein, and transmitting a portion of the deterrent data from a subset of the glyphs without transmitting deterrent data from a remainder of the glyphs. The glyphs form a predetermined structure with a single solution. The method further includes receiving the portion of the deterrent data, placing the portion of the deterrent data into the subset of the glyphs, and solving the predetermined structure with the single solution, thereby determining the remainder of the glyphs to be infilled in the predetermined structure with deterrent data gleaned from the solution.

  • Continuous querying of a data stream
    Patent number: 9195708
    Abstract: In continuous querying of a data stream, a query including query cycles can be initialized (310) on a query engine to analyze the data stream for desired information. The data stream can be processed (320) as segments, where a size of the segments is based on a user-defined parameter. The query cycles can be synchronized (330) with the segments of the data stream. A first segment can be analyzed (340) by performing the query on the first segment to obtain a first result. A query state of the query can be persisted (350) and the query operation can be rewound to begin a new query cycle. A second segment can be analyzed (360) in the new query cycle by performing the query on the second segment based on the first result.
