AIB2 Components - Pattern Analyzer

The Pattern Analyzer component is a compact pattern recognition module. It allows the import of binary patterns (0's and 1's) of up to 32 features in length, whereby a feature by feature comparison is made against all patterns in the registered patterns set. If a match is found the control will flag and identify this pattern and make available this information at the two outputs.

To register patterns, open the component properties dialog box, either by double clicking on the component or by selecting properties from the pop up menu. Select the Import Patterns button and bring your patterns in via comma separated value text files (*.CSV). Format for the file requires that pattern names be in the first column, unique pattern ID's in the second column, and then followed by each value in the pattern (1 or 0) in each successive column. At the top of the file should be the name of the features that the values represent. This file, once imported, will be displayed in full detail within the properties dialog box of the component.

When the import is performed, the component will automatically construct all necessary inputs along with the associated names from the header row. These inputs are where you will attach other components or incoming values to. Each cycle of execution (if the component is enabled) will cause a pattern matching test to be performed, with the results provided at the outputs, and also stored for later viewing and or export in the properties dialog box itself. Choose reset or delete results to clear prior comparison tests.
