When TEDDY meets GrizzLY: Temporal Dependency Discovery for Triggering Road Deicing Operations (Demo)
Résumé
Temporal dependencies between multiple sensor data sources link two
types of events if the occurrence of one is repeatedly followed by
the appearance of the other in a certain time interval. TEDDY
algorithm aims at discovering such dependencies, identifying the
statically significant time intervals with a $\chi^2$ test. We
present how these dependencies can be used within the GrizzLY
project to tackle an environmental and technical issue: the deicing
of the roads. This project aims to wisely organize the deicing
operations of an urban area, based on several sensor network
measures of local atmospheric phenomena. A spatial and temporal
dependency-based model is built from these data to predict freezing
alerts.
