According to some embodiments, system and methods are provided including receiving, via a communication interface of an event detection and classification module comprising a processor, data from one or more sensors in a system; determining an event occurred based on the received data; applying a coherency similarity process to the received data via a classification module; determining whether the event is an actual event or a mal-doer event based on an output of the classification module; transmitting the determination of the event as the actual or the mal-doer event; and modifying operation of the system based on the transmitted output. Numerous other aspects are provided.

There is provided a measuring device that suppresses flickering of display values displayed on a display and, at the same time, improves response of the measuring device. A measuring device includes a storage that stores information about the measuring device, control circuitry that calculates measurement results, and a display that displays the measurement results calculated by the control circuitry. The control circuitry determines whether or not filtering for suppression of a variation in display values P.sub.n displayed on the display is to be executed and executes the filtering in response to the determination that the filtering is to be executed.

Sensor circuits having a filter and methods for filtering a sensor signal are provided. In this case, a passband width of an adjustable low-pass filter or bandpass filter is adjusted on the basis of a comparison of a measure of a signal change of a sensor signal with a threshold value.

A sensor output correction system is provided which is capable of minimizing a risk that a correction value for use in zero-point correction differs from an actual deviation of a zero-point. An ECU includes a travel road information acquisition portion which obtains a curvature of a travel road on which a system-mounted vehicle is traveling and a vehicle information acquisition portion which obtains a detected value of a yaw rate sensor. The ECU determines whether the system-mounted vehicle is traveling on a straight path or not based on the curvature derived by the travel road information acquisition portion. The ECU determines a value (i.e., a zero-point equivalent value) which corresponds to a deviation of a current zero point of the yaw rate sensor based on detected values of the yaw rate sensor sampled while the system-mounted vehicle is moving on the straight path. The ECU determines a correction value which is subtracted from the detected value using the zero-point equivalent value.

Disclosed is to a method for compensating noise of a crank sensor in a vehicle. When noise is applied to a crank sensor, information of a crank is predicted based on information input up to now without canceling engine synchronization. The method for compensating noise of a crank sensor includes: judging an engine stroke based on an ignition angle and, based on amount of compensation determined accordingly, creating virtual information of a crank, when judgment of fault of crank signal occurs discontinuously.

Data output from each of the n delay elements and a remainder value output from a divider in the previous calculation are input to an adder, and an addition process for obtaining a total sum thereof is executed. In addition, a division process is performed by dividing the total sum output from the adder by n, and a quotient and a remainder are output from the divider. The remainder is delayed by a remainder delay element by one clock, is output to the adder, and is added in the next calculation.
