Abstract
A computer-implemented method of determining actions outside of a norm is provided. The method comprises: generating an actor state vector and a peer group state vector, wherein the actor state vector identifies a characteristic for an actor in each of a plurality of categories and the peer group state vector identifies a characteristic for a peer group in each of the plurality of categories, transforming the actor state vector into a first sampled wave series representation using a first wave series transformation, transforming the population state vector into a second sampled wave series representation using a second wave series transformation, and filtering the first sampled wave series representation and the second sampled wave series representation to identify a deviation of the first wave series representation from the second wave series representation in a phase or a magnitude.
