US Patent 11928971 Detection of anomalous states in multivariate data

A method includes obtaining a plurality of data sets, where each data set of the plurality of data sets includes multivariate time series data for a respective sample period of a plurality of sample periods. The method also includes, for each data set of the plurality of data sets, determining recurrence data indicative of recurrent states in the data set and determining, based on the recurrence data, determinism values of a determinism metric and laminarity values of a laminarity metric. The method further includes determining that a particular data set of the plurality of data sets includes data representing an anomalous state based on a determinism-laminarity curve representing the particular data set, where the determinism-laminarity curve is based on the determinism values of the particular data set and the laminarity values of the particular data set. The method also includes generating output data indicating the anomalous state.
