Abstract: Apparatus for use in analyzing network data, the apparatus including an electronic processing device that determines network data representing a network having a number of nodes and links between the nodes, selects a model in accordance with a data type associated with the network data, the model being indicative of at least one trigger for a behaviour of interest, selected network metrics and a mathematical relationship relating network nodes to the at least one trigger using the selected network metrics and determines at least one trigger associated with the network data, determines the selected metrics for the network data and uses the mathematical relationship, the selected network metrics and the identified at least one trigger to determine predicted nodes, the predicted nodes being nodes predicted to exhibit behaviour of interest.

Abstract: A method for use in analysing time series data, the method including determining a relationship coefficient between each pair of a plurality of data sets, each data set being indicative of variable values of a corresponding variable over time, and the relationship coefficient being indicative of a degree of relatedness between the pair of data sets, displaying a first representation including first nodes indicative of first data sets, the first data sets being selected ones of the data sets, determining selection of at least two second data sets from the first data sets and displaying a second representation, the second representation including an animation over time of a second node, the second node being animated based on the variable values for the second data sets.
