Hi, also interested... If you are checking for non-normal behaviour, first let us define normal behaviour: only small temperature changes and no steep ramps? If so, maybe you can make an rolling average of the last x points, and check if the following point deviates more than ... ? Or is it

Thank you Clint for your response. I am happy to know that you have gotten interested in this analysis.:-) Let me give you some details about sensor networks that would help you understand my goal better. Sensor nodes run on small batteries which have limited life. So communication amongst

Thank you everyone for all the responses. Clint you are correct in assuming that the problem deals with sensors in a lab setup which can be assumed to be isolated from outside temperature changes. And, I am only dealing with temperature so the other parameters are not important. There will be

Aneeta, My gorilla and mouse analogies were referring to the magnitude of the disturbance and also to its time signature. Are you only interested in the large disturbance which is abrupt (the gorilla)? Or do you also want to be able to detect the more surreptitious attack which may be quite

Aneeta, You will have to have a seasonal component built into your model, because the seasonal variation does matter, particularly -where- you are geographically (San Diego, Chicago, Denver, Miami are very different). Generally, there is a sinusoidal daily temperature variation, but frontal

Aneeta, If I understand the figure at http://db.csail.mit.edu/labdata/labdata.html this problem deals with sensors in a lab that is probably isolated from outdoor temperature changes. I assume the predictive model must detect when a rampaging 800 pound gorilla messes with a sensor. Do we

The data that I use has been collected by a sensor network deployed by Intel. You may take a look at the network at the following website http://db.csail.mit.edu/labdata/labdata.html The main goal of my project is to simulate a physical layer attack on a sensor network and to detect such an
