Abstract: A computer-implemented system for identifying a precursor to a failure of a particular type of component in a physical system is provided. The physical system includes sensors coupled to the physical system. The computer-implemented system includes a computing device, a database, a processor, and a memory device. The memory device includes historical data including sensor measurements. When instructions are executed by the processor, the processor receives the historical data from the memory device. The processor generates a predictive model. The predictive model uses, as inputs, sensor measurements in the historical data. The predictive model is able to differentiate between sensor measurements taken before the repair event and those taken after the repair event without a time of the repair event being an input to the predictive model. The processor designates at least one sensor measurements used as inputs to the predictive model as precursors to the failure of the component.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates approaches that may be used to analyze data from hospital records to identify deficiencies in the operation of the hospital. In certain implementations, features of the data may be evaluated in conjunction with performance indicators to identify root causes associated with the deficiencies. In further implementations, identification of root causes of deficiencies identified in the historical data may be used to generate recommendations for changes to the operation of the hospital. In further implementations, events may be predicted based on the identification of a features or features within the current data that is indicative of a pending problem or event.

A baseline modeling component builds a baseline model from the preprocessed data, wherein the baseline model relates process performance variables as a function of process operating conditions.

Abstract: The performance of optimization algorithms operating with compute-intensive fitness functions is enhanced by constraining time-intensive fitness evaluations for candidate solutions that show low likelihood of being fit at early stages of the fitness evaluation. By prematurely discarding alternatives that could be potentially optimal upon complete fitness evaluation but with low likelihood, the running time of the overall optimization process is advantageously reduced substantially, thereby trading off time complexity for search fidelity.
