Algorithm for data-agnostic event detection from data streams

總結

Event detection from data streams (for example, detection of computer breaches or new distant stars) typically involves a labor-intensive preprocessing step by experts, which is slow, error-prone, and expensive. Additionally, many of these events have low intensity signals that are obscured by random noise. This technology uses “Information Annihilation” (IA), a computational method to detect events by comparing two data streams without prior data interpretation. This technology provides a fast, low-cost method of event detection from any form of data stream, including low intensity data. Such high-sensitivity signal processing has wide applications in many fields, including bioinformatics, astrophysics, communications, and computer security.
