System and method for using pattern recognition to monitor and maintain status quo

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of checking data gathered from a content source comprising: receiving initial data from the content source; training a data profiler to generate a set of trusted constraint modules, said training comprising (1) selecting constraint modules having parameters that are applicable to the initial data, (2) adjusting the parameters of the applicable constraint modules to conform with new data from the content source, (3) identifying non-stable constraint modules, and (4) generating a set of trusted constraint modules by removing the non-stable constraint modules; applying the set of trusted constraint modules to subsequently received data from the content source to determine whether the subsequently received data meets the parameters of the set of trusted constraint modules; and signaling a failure upon the subsequently received data failing to meet the parameters of the set of trusted constraint modules.
