Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention may provide the capability to detect complex events while providing improved detection and performance. In an embodiment of the present invention, a method for detecting an event may comprise receiving data representing measurement or detection of physical parameters, conditions, or actions, quantizing the received data and selecting a number of samples from the quantized data, generating a hidden Markov model representing events to be detected using initial model values based on ideal conditions, wherein a desired output is defined as a sequence of states, and wherein a number of states of the hidden Markov model is less than or equal to the number of samples of the quantized data, adjusting the quantized data and the initial model values to improve accuracy of the model, determining a state sequence of the hidden Markov model, and outputting an indication of a detected event.
