Event correlation and forecasting over high-dimensional streaming sensor data
Vassilis Papataxiarhis, Stathes P. Hadjiefthymiades · 2018
Event management in sensor networks is a multidisciplinary field involving several steps across the processing chain. In this paper, we discuss the major steps that should be performed in real- or near real-time event handling including event detection, correlation, prediction and filtering. We explain the rationale behind each considered step and we focus on an event correlation algorithm based on a variable-order Markov model. The proposed theory is applied on the maritime domain and is validated through extensive experimentation with real sensor streams originating from large-scale sensor networks deployed in a maritime fleet of ships.
