Abstract
The system comprises a component model for modelling aspects of the hardware component, and feature extraction logic for extending the component model to cause the component model, when executing, to output one or more features identifying execution behavior of the component model. A statistical model is then arranged to receive the one or more features output by the component model, and to generate the output dependent on one or more features. The component model may not explicitly model features that can be used to effectively predict values of the observable property, features that a statistical model depends on may still be captured in the underlying logic and implementation of the component model. By extracting features identifying execution behavior of the component model, this can provide a suitable input to the statistical model.
