  • Publication number: 20210272704
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a condition monitoring device includes a storage device and a processor. The storage device is configured to store in advance a template related to a second operation segment signal. The processor is configured to acquire a time-series signal from a first sensor, acquire operation timing information, detect a first operation segment signal from the time-series signal based on the operation timing information, detect a second operation segment signal in a segment identified based on a degree of similarity to the template of the first operation segment signal, and determine a condition of the monitored target based on the second operation segment signal.
