| 20090017758 | Method, Data Processing Program and Computer Program Product for Determining a Periodic Cycle of Time Series Data - Method, apparatus, and system, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for determining a periodic cycle of time series data. A frequency spectrum of the data is provided. The frequency spectrum is processed using at least one of the following steps, resulting in a processed frequency spectrum: filtering the frequency spectrum for reducing noise of the data, truncating the frequency spectrum at low frequencies, and weighting high frequency contributions over low frequency contributions of the frequency spectrum. A periodic cycle is extracted based on the processed frequency spectrum. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090018798 | Method, Data Processing Program and Computer Program Product for Time Series Analysis - Method, apparatus, and system, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for time series analysis, wherein the time series exhibit trend and/or seasonality. Model parameters of the time series data are determined by selecting and/or suggesting a most appropriate combination of trend and seasonality of the time series data based on analysis of variances of transformed time series data. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090019043 | DATA MINING METHOD FOR FINDING DEVIATIONS IN DATA - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for finding deviations in data. A set of candidate patterns is generated. A set of exception patterns that occur in the data less frequently than expected assuming statistical independence is selected from the set of candidate patterns. Data records that comply with at least one of the exception patterns are processed as exception candidates. | 01-15-2009 |

| 20100118147 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ADAPTIVELY STREAMING VIDEO DATA BASED ON A TRIGGERING EVENT - Methods and apparatus are provided for displaying streaming video on a display device of a control unit associated with a surveillance module. A method comprises buffering a video data stream captured by the surveillance module to obtain a buffered video data stream and displaying a first segment of the buffered video data stream in a viewing area on the display device. The first segment corresponds to content captured at a first time. The method continues by receiving a notification signal from the unmanned vehicle that is indicative of a triggering event, and in response to the notification signal, displaying a second segment of the buffered video data stream in the viewing area. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100228418 | SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING VIDEO WITH IMPROVED SPATIAL AWARENESS - Methods and systems are provided for displaying a video data stream captured by a surveillance module associated with an aerial vehicle during execution of a flight plan. A method comprises displaying a timeline corresponding to the video data stream on a display device associated with the aerial vehicle and displaying a first indicator on the timeline. In accordance with one embodiment, the first indicator corresponds to a first waypoint of the flight plan, wherein the first indicator is positioned on the timeline such that the first indicator corresponds to a first segment of the video data stream at a first time. The first time is based at least in part on a position of the aerial vehicle. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20100286859 | METHODS FOR GENERATING A FLIGHT PLAN FOR AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE BASED ON A PREDICTED CAMERA PATH - Methods are provided for generating a flight plan for an aerial vehicle equipped with a surveillance module by using a control unit having a display device. A method comprises graphically identifying, on a map displayed on the display device, a desired target for the surveillance module. A flight plan generated based on the desired target such that a predicted camera path for the surveillance module overlaps the desired target. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20100305778 | ADAPTIVE USER INTERFACE FOR SEMI-AUTOMATIC OPERATION - A method is provided for semi-automatic operation of a portable control device for a remote-controlled, unmanned vehicle. The method includes the steps of monitoring parameters of an operational environment of the portable control device, switching from a manual operation mode to a semi-automatic operation mode in response to occurrence of predetermined criteria within the operational environment, and presenting a semi-automatic operation graphical user interface to a user of the portable control device. The semi-automatic operation graphical user interface includes a reduced set of user interfaces for the semi-automatic operation mode presented by the portable control device. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110106590 | WEIGHTED ASSESSMENT OF COGNITIVE WORKLOADS OF TEAM MEMBERS RESPONSIBLE FOR EXECUTION OF AN OPERATION - A system is provided for assessing cognitive workloads of a team that is responsible for carrying out a designated operation having a plurality of execution phases. The system includes a processing architecture configured to carry out processor-executable instructions, a processor-readable medium accessible by the processing architecture, and processor-executable instructions stored on the processor-readable medium. When executed by the processor architecture, the processor-executable instructions cause the processor architecture to obtain workload data indicative of cognitive workloads of members of the team during the course of the designated operation. For each of the plurality of execution phases, the system generates weighted workload scores for participating members of the team, the weighted workload scores being generated from the workload data and from a respective set of weighting values. The respective set of weighting values includes individual weighting values for each of the participating members of the team. For each of the plurality of execution phases, the system presents the weighted workload scores for the participating members of the team in a human-interpretable format. | 05-05-2011 |
