Abstract: Device and method for analyzing time series data monitored on a machine, wherein the device segments the time series data into multiple time segments, determines a cluster of time segments estimated to have the same dynamics of the time series data, then classifies the cluster based on label information associated with at least one of the time segments, presents at least a part of the time series data of the cluster to a user if none of the time segments of the cluster has associated label information, classifies the cluster and generates label information associated with the time segments of the cluster based on a user input received in response to presentation of the time series data, where the generated label information indicates a result of classifying the cluster.

Abstract: A device obtains a set of time series data monitored on a machine and further obtains first label information indicating a first time window in the time series data. The device determines a first probabilistic model, describing dynamics of the time series data inside the first time window, and a second probabilistic model describing dynamics of the time series data adjacent to the first time window. Based on the first and second probabilistic models, the device determines a first part of the time series data that is estimated to match the first probabilistic model and a second part of the time series data that is estimated to match the second probabilistic model, e.g., using a hidden Markov model. The device then determines second label information indicating a second time window which includes the first part of the time series data and excludes the second part of the time series data.

Abstract: A method for creating a communication network from devices of an automation system, wherein the automation system is developed based on logical addresses of the devices and the devices are assigned physical addresses by which the devices are accessed to exchange data over the communication network when operating the automation system. An overlay network comprising a decentralized network is constructed with the devices as network nodes, wherein conventional mechanisms for decentralized networks for publication of resources and subscription to resources are used to map logical addresses used during development of the automation system to the physical addresses used when operating the automation system. Mapping is achieved by a resource or a subscription to a resource being suitably published during initialization of a respective device, wherein the resources are stored based on keys in the decentralized network which corresponds to a logical addresses, and the resource contents represent physical addresses.
