Abstract

Disclosed herein is a multi-domain anomaly pattern definition and detection module. The module receives raw data from different kinds of anomalies from a variety of detection algorithms and generates scores associated with the data. If any scores exceed a threshold, the algorithm gathers further information such as counts or listings of detailed data for a geographic region. The detailed data can include emergency department and lab department data related to a particular health concern such as a respiratory syndrome. Summaries can identify anomalies and numbers of events according to geographic region and utilizing probability algorithms. Other databases such as animal data collected under the Department of Agriculture may also be utilized. The data is presented in a familiar form such as a map or a table such that a subject matter expert may determine whether to further investigate an anomaly as a potential risk, for example, a health risk.
