Abstract
Abstract To analyze symbolized time series data in units of a case and extract a causal relation included in the data as a rule representing a data structure, time series data are stored as records of a symbol and a time by a symbolized data management apparatus, and a unit of description of an analysis is determined by a case production apparatus and a classification apparatus. A model extraction apparatus extracts a data structure included in a class by case and outputs the extracted data structure as a rule. Analysis results are output as a temporal relationship between a case and a rule, indicating a conformity degree between cases, by the symbolized data management apparatus.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
77 words
A data analysis apparatus, comprising: means for inputting time series data; means for storing symbolization references and symbol values having a correspondence to values of the input time series data; means for converting the time series data into at least one symbol value in accordance with the stored symbolization references; and means for storing record data formed from the symbol values obtained by the means for converting and times at which the time series data were produced.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
77 words
A data analysis apparatus, comprising: means for inputting time series data; means for storing symbolization references and symbol values having a correspondence to values of the input time series data; means for converting the time series data into at least one symbol value in accordance with the stored symbolization references; and means for storing record data formed from the symbol values obtained by the means for converting and times at which the time series data were produced.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said means for storing stores as the record data the symbol values obtained by the conversion of the symbol values and times at which the corresponding time series data were produced.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
89 words
A data analysis apparatus, comprising: means for inputting time series data; means for inputting symbolization references and symbol values having a correspondence to values of the time series data; means for converting, in accordance with the input symbolization references, the corresponding time series data into at least one symbol value; means for storing the symbol values obtained by the means for converting and the time series data corresponding to the symbol values with a correlation condition; and means for retrieving the stored time series data using the symbol values.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
89 words
A data analysis apparatus, comprising: means for inputting time series data; means for inputting symbolization references and symbol values having a correspondence to values of the time series data; means for converting, in accordance with the input symbolization references, the corresponding time series data into at least one symbol value; means for storing the symbol values obtained by the means for converting and the time series data corresponding to the symbol values with a correlation condition; and means for retrieving the stored time series data using the symbol values.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising means for outputting a rule of if-then format using the symbol values in the record data.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 4, wherein a combination relationship of the symbol values in the record data constitutes a conditional portion of the rule of if-then format.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
30 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 4, wherein an orderly relationship of the symbol values in the record data constitutes a conditional portion of the rule of if-then format.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
33 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the input time series data include a temporal attribute, and wherein said means for retrieving retrieves the time series data using the temporal attribute.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
43 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising means for outputting a result as a rule of if-then format, wherein a combination relationship of the symbol values in the record data constitutes a conditional portion of the rule of if-then format.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
40 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising means for outputting a rule of if-then format, wherein an orderly relationship of the symbol values in the record data constitutes a conditional portion of the rule of if-then format.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
33 words
A data analysis apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the input time series data include a temporal attribute, and wherein said means for retrieving retrieves the time series data using the temporal attribute.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
76 words
A computer-readable storage medium encoded with executable instructions constituting a program for analyzing time series data, wherein the program, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method comprising the following steps: converting time series data into at least one symbol value in accordance with a plurality of symbolization references; and producing record data from the symbol values obtained by the converting step and times at which the time series data were produced.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
76 words
A computer-readable storage medium encoded with executable instructions constituting a program for analyzing time series data, wherein the program, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method comprising the following steps: converting time series data into at least one symbol value in accordance with a plurality of symbolization references; and producing record data from the symbol values obtained by the converting step and times at which the time series data were produced.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
79 words
A computer-readable storage medium encoded with executable instructions constituting a program for analyzing time series data, wherein the program, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method comprising the following steps: converting, in accordance with input symbolization references, time series data corresponding to the input symbolization references into at least one symbol value; correlating the symbol values and the time series data; and producing record data including the time series data using the symbol values.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
79 words
A computer-readable storage medium encoded with executable instructions constituting a program for analyzing time series data, wherein the program, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method comprising the following steps: converting, in accordance with input symbolization references, time series data corresponding to the input symbolization references into at least one symbol value; correlating the symbol values and the time series data; and producing record data including the time series data using the symbol values.
