Patent attributes
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for event detection from signal data removing private information. A signal is ingested. A portion of the signal is selected from within the signal. A first score is computed from the selected portion. The first score indicates a likelihood of the signal including information related to an event type. It is determined that processing of another signal is warranted based on the indicated likelihood. Resources are allocated to process the other signal. The other signal is ingested. Parameters associated with the other signal are accessed. A second score is computed from the parameters utilizing the allocated resources. A previously unidentified event of the event type is identified based on the second score and utilizing the allocated resources. A privacy infrastructure spans signal ingestion, event detection, and event notification and protects the integrity of private information.
