A method and apparatus to classify processor events is provided. The apparatus includes a reference generator, a warping unit, a correlation unit and a detector. The reference generator provides a self-reference for an event vector stream based on a history of the event vector stream and the warping unit dynamically aligns the event vector stream with the self-reference to generate a warped event vector stream. The correlation unit determines a window-by-window correlation of event vectors of the warped event vector stream, and the detector passes a window of event vectors of the warped event vector stream to a behavioral classifier when the window-by-window correlation achieves a threshold value. The behavioral classifier may use machine learning. A sample reservoir may be used to store dynamically selected event vectors of the event vector stream that are used, at least in part, to generate the self-reference.
