focus and focus-cpt: Fast Online Changepoint Detection in R and Python

Gaetano Romano, Kes Ward, Yuntang Fan +4

We present an R and Python package for fast online changepoint detection in univariate and multivariate data streams for a variety of models. The package implements the focus famil…

Gamma-ray burst detection with Poisson-FOCuS and other trigger algorithms

Giuseppe Dilillo, Kes Ward, Idris A. Eckley +5

We describe how a novel online changepoint detection algorithm, called Poisson-FOCuS, can be used to optimally detect gamma-ray bursts within the computational constraints imposed…

A Constant-per-Iteration Likelihood Ratio Test for Online Changepoint Detection for Exponential Family Models

Kes Ward, Gaetano Romano, Idris Eckley +1

Online changepoint detection algorithms that are based on likelihood-ratio tests have been shown to have excellent statistical properties. However, a simple online implementation i…

Poisson-FOCuS: An efficient online method for detecting count bursts with application to gamma ray burst detection

Kes Ward, Giuseppe Dilillo, Idris Eckley +1

Gamma-ray bursts are flashes of light from distant exploding stars. Cube satellites that monitor photons across different energy bands are used to detect these bursts. There is a n…
