TLDR
A methodology for extracting the temporal properties, in terms of start time and duration, of sensor data streams that can be used in applications such as human, habitat, environmental and traffic monitoring where sensed events repeat over a time window is outlined.Abstract:
The extraction of temporal characteristics from sensor data streams can reveal important properties about the sensed events. Knowledge of temporal characteristics in applications where sensed events tend to periodically repeat, can provide a great deal of information towards identifying patterns, building models and using the timing information to actuate and provide services. In this paper we outline a methodology for extracting the temporal properties, in terms of start time and duration, of sensor data streams that can be used in applications such as human, habitat, environmental and traffic monitoring where sensed events repeat over a time window. Its application is demonstrated on a 30-day dataset collected from one of our assisted living sensor network deployments.read more

Maximum likelihood from incomplete data via the EM algorithm
Some methods for classification and analysis of multivariate observations
TL;DR: The k-means algorithm as mentioned in this paper partitions an N-dimensional population into k sets on the basis of a sample, which is a generalization of the ordinary sample mean, and it is shown to give partitions which are reasonably efficient in the sense of within-class variance.
