Abstract
A computing system detects an event. (A) A frequency spectrum of observation vectors is computed using a Fourier transform. Each observation vector includes a sensor value. (B) (A) is repeated a predefined plurality of times with successive windows of the observation vectors. Each window of the successive windows includes a subset of the observation vectors. The successive windows include successive subsets selected sequentially in time. (C) An average frequency spectrum is computed from the frequency spectrum computed the predefined plurality of times. (D) A predefined noise filter is applied to the average frequency spectrum to define a filtered frequency spectrum. (E) A distance value is computed between the filtered frequency spectrum and a predefined reference spectrum using a distance computation function. (F) When an event has occurred is determined based on a comparison between the computed distance value and a predefined distance threshold.
