US Patent 11562274 Method for improving maintenance of complex systems

A computer-implemented method of improving maintenance of a complex system, the complex system having a plurality of components, the method involving: preparing data across a plurality of data streams from a plurality of data sources; generating a matrix representation of the data; calculating a time proximity of the data; calculating a plurality of corresponding cell values of the matrix representation; matching event information across the plurality of data streams from a plurality of data sources, the plurality of data sources corresponding to the plurality of components, wherein at least one data stream of the plurality of data streams has at least one of low fidelity data and imprecise event generation information; and scoring the imprecise event generation information across the plurality of data streams, thereby providing a score indicating a match quality of the imprecise event generation information.
