Abstract
In an example, a method for identifying associated events in an aircraft is described. The method includes obtaining sensor data, obtaining fault code data, generating a set of events, where each event occurs over a time interval over which either (i) the sensor data indicates an anomalous measurement or (ii) a fault code associated with a particular aircraft subsystem of the aircraft was signaled, calculating a value of statistical dependence between the set, based on the value exceeding a threshold, constructing a network representing the set as a sequence of related events and further representing a temporal order in which the sequence occurred, indexing, in a summary table stored in memory and separate from the sensor data and the fault code data, the sequence and the value, and controlling a display device to display the summary table and a visual representation of the network.
