The present invention provides methods and apparatus for determining and utilizing detection models, such as models for machine condition monitoring. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for identifying and prioritizing labeled data. The model allows a monitored system to be associated with a calibrated and ordered set of states. Further, in machine condition monitoring, the machine condition is associated with the entire set of states in a particular order with a relevance zero-point. That is, a ranked set of calibrated data describing machine conditions is augmented with an annotation indicating a cut-off between relevant and non-relevant data.

System and method for modeling multilabel classification and ranking

The present invention provides methods and apparatus for determining and utilizing case-based ranking methods, such as methods for machine condition monitoring. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for identifying and prioritizing labeled data. The method allows a monitored system to be associated with a calibrated and ordered set of states. Further, in machine condition monitoring, the machine condition is associated with the entire set of states in a particular order with one or more relevance zero-points. That is, a ranked set of calibrated data describing machine conditions is augmented with an annotation indicating a cut-off between relevant and non-relevant data.

System and method for case-based multilabel classification and ranking

Documents in a high density data stream are clustered. Incoming documents are analyzed to find metadata, such as words in a documents headline or abstract and people, places, and organizations discussed in the document. The metadata is emphasized as compared to other words found in the document. A single feature vector for each document determined based on the emphasized metadata will accordingly take into account the importance of such words and clustering efficacy and efficiency are improved.

Method and apparatus for incorporating metadata in data clustering

Documents from a data stream are clustered by first generating a feature vector for each document. A set of cluster centroids (e.g., feature vectors of their corresponding clusters) are retrieved from a memory based on the feature vector of the document using a locality sensitive hashing function. The centroids may be retrieved by retrieving a set of cluster identifiers from a cluster table, the cluster identifiers each indicative of a respective cluster centroid, and retrieving the cluster centroids corresponding to the retrieved cluster identifiers from a memory. Documents may then be clustered into one or more of the candidate clusters using distance measures from the feature vector of the document to the cluster centroids.

Document clustering that applies a locality sensitive hashing function to a feature vector to obtain a limited set of candidate clusters

Documents from a data stream are clustered by first generating a feature vector for each document. A set of cluster centroids (e.g., feature vectors of their corresponding clusters) are retrieved from a memory based on the feature vector of the document and a relative age of each of the cluster centroids. The centroids may be retrieved by retrieving a set of cluster identifiers from a cluster table, the cluster identifiers each indicative of a respective cluster centroid, and retrieving the cluster centroids corresponding to the retrieved cluster identifiers from a memory. A list of cluster identifiers in the cluster table may be maintained based on the relative age of cluster centroids corresponding to the cluster identifiers. Cluster identifiers that correspond to cluster centroids with a relative age exceeding a predetermined threshold are periodically removed from the list of cluster identifiers.
