Abstract

Apparatus, systems, and methods may operate to acquire an original data set comprising a series of data points having an independent portion and a dependent portion, the dependent portion representing a measure of device performance that depends on at least one device characteristic represented by the independent portion. Additional activity may include identifying outlier data points in the series by determining, in comparison with all other members of the series, whether the outlier data points conform to a known trend of the series; transforming the original data set into a transformed data set by removing the outlier data points from the series; and publishing the transformed data set. Other apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
