IRREGULARITY DETECTION SYSTEM, IRREGULARITY DETECTION METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
An irregularity detection apparatus (100) converts a multi-valued-signal value of each of one or more multi-valued-signals at each time point into a binary-signal-value group. The irregularity detection apparatus calculates a forecast-signal-value group at a subject time point by computing a forecast model with use of, as input, a past-signal-value group which is a collection of a binary-signal value of each of one or more binary signals at each past time point and the binary-signal-value group of each of the one or more multi-valued signals at each past time point. The irregularity detection apparatus compares with the forecast-signal-value group, a collection of the binary-signal value of each of the one or more binary signals at the subject time point and the binary-signal-value group of each of the one or more multi-valued signals at the subject time point, and determines a state of a subject system (220) at the subject time point.
