A vibrational analysis system diagnosis the health of a mechanical system by reference to vibration signature data from multiple domains. Features are extracted from signature data by reference to pointer locations. The features provide an indication of signature deviation from a baseline signature in the observed domain. Several features applicable to a desired fault are aggregated to provide an indication of the likelihood that the fault has manifested in the observed mechanical system. The system may also be used for trend analysis of the health of the mechanical system.

A method and system for identifying a trend in data of heat maps. An initial set of comparison heat maps included in the repository is determined and displayed based on how closely initial comparison area(s) of each comparison heat map match initial target area(s) of a first heat map. A review of the initial set of comparison heat maps determines additional comparison area(s) corresponding to additional target area(s) of the first heat map. In an iterative process, an additional set of comparison heat maps is determined and displayed based on how closely initial and additional comparison areas match respective initial and additional target areas of the first heat map. A trend relating initial and additional target areas is identified based on the displayed additional set of comparison heat maps and based on how closely comparison areas match their respective target areas.

A method for detecting surveillance activity in a computer communication network comprising automatic detection of malicious probes and scans and adaptive learning. Automatic scan/probe detection in turn comprises modeling network connections, detecting connections that are likely probes originating from malicious sources, and detecting scanning activity by grouping source addresses that are logically close to one another and by recognizing certain combinations of probes. The method is implemented in a scan/probe detector, preferably in combination with a commercial or open-source intrusion detection system and an anomaly detector. Once generated, the model monitors online activity to detect malicious behavior without any requirement for a priori knowledge of system behavior. This is referred to as “behavior-based” or “mining-based detection.” The three main components may be used separately or in combination with each other. The alerts produced by each may be presented to an analyst, used for generating reports (such as trend analysis), or correlated with alerts from other detectors. Through correlation, the invention prioritizes alerts, reduces the number of alerts presented to an analyst, and determines the most important alerts.
