CONSOLIDATION OF ALERTS BASED ON CORRELATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240021067 titled 'CONSOLIDATION OF ALERTS BASED ON CORRELATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for consolidating alerts using a similarity criterion. The invention involves receiving data from a sensor at a property that identifies a second action, determining if the second action satisfies a similarity criterion for an action in a sequence of actions that define an event at the property, and performing an event operation for the event if the second action satisfies the similarity criterion.

  • The invention involves consolidating alerts based on a similarity criterion.
  • Data is received from a sensor at a property, identifying a second action.
  • The second action is compared to a sequence of actions that define an event at the property.
  • If the second action satisfies the similarity criterion, an event operation is performed for the event at the property.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Home security systems: Consolidating alerts from different sensors to identify potential security threats.
  • Industrial monitoring: Consolidating alerts from various sensors in a manufacturing facility to detect anomalies or equipment malfunctions.
  • Environmental monitoring: Consolidating alerts from sensors in an ecosystem to track changes or detect potential hazards.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Reduces alert fatigue by consolidating similar alerts into a single event.
  • Improves efficiency by automating event operations based on the similarity criterion.
  • Enhances accuracy by identifying patterns or trends in the sequence of actions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Streamlines alert management by reducing the number of individual alerts.
  • Enables quicker response to events by automating event operations.
  • Provides a more comprehensive understanding of events by analyzing the sequence of actions.


Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for consolidation of alerts using a similarity criterion. one of the methods includes: receiving, from a sensor at a property for which a first action in a sequence of actions was detected by a second sensor at the property, data that identifies a second action at the property; determining whether the second action satisfies a similarity criterion for an action in the sequence of actions that define an event at the property; and in response to determining that the second action satisfies the similarity criterion for the action in the sequence of actions that define the event at the property, performing an event operation for the event at the property.
