  • Method and device for associating a state to a new value output by a drifting sensor
    Patent number: 10748073
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of associating at least one state in a plurality of states to a new value output by a drifting sensor, the method comprising: /a/ receiving a signal from the sensor, said signal comprising a plurality of values; /b/clustering the values of said signal into a number of clusters equal to the number of the plurality of states, each cluster being associated with a respective state in the plurality of states; /c/ for the new value of the signal, associating at least one state in said plurality of states or a probability rating representing the probability to be associated with one state in said plurality of states for said new value of the signal, the associated state or the associated probability rating being determined based on at least distances (dH, dL) of said new value of the signal to respective clusters.
    Type: Grant
