Methods for consistent forewarning of critical events across multiple data channels

Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention teaches further method improvements to forewarn of critical events via phase-space dissimilarity analysis of data from biomedical equipment, mechanical devices, and other physical processes. One improvement involves conversion of time-serial data into equiprobable symbols. A second improvement is a method to maximize the channel-consistent total-true rate of forewarning from a plurality of data channels over multiple data sets from the same patient or process. This total-true rate requires resolution of the forewarning indications into true positives (TP) true negatives (TN), false , positives (FP) and false negatives (FN) relative to a forewarning window 20. A third …
