Anomaly detection using Z-Score Analysis

Python
Detect an anomaly in the temperature and alert via a SMS and buzzer
import conf, json, time, math, statistics
from boltiot import Sms, Bolt

def compute_bounds(history_data, frame_size, factor): #determine the bounds dynamically
	if len(history_data)<frame_size:
		return None
	if len(history_data)>frame_size:
		del history_data[0:len(history_data)-frame_size]
	Mn= statistics.mean(history_data)
	Variance=0
	for data in history_data:
		Variance += math.pow((data-Mn),2)
	Zn = factor * math.sqrt(Variance / frame_size)
	High_bound= history_data[frame_size-1]+Zn
	Low_bound= history_data[frame_size-1]-Zn
	return [High_bound, Low_bound]

mybolt= Bolt(conf.API_KEY, conf.DEVICE_ID) # to communicate with the bolt cloud and fetch values
sms = Sms(conf.SSID, conf.AUTH_TOKEN, conf.TO_NUMBER, conf.FROM_NUMBER) # instance to send an sms when anomaly occurs
history_data=[]


while True:
	response = mybolt.analogRead('A0')

	data = json.loads(response) # response in JSON format, hence use python json library to load the data 
	if data['success']!=1:
		print("There was an error while retriving the data.")
		print("This is the error:" +data['value'])
		time.sleep(10)
		continue
	print("THis is the value " +data['value'])

	sensor_value=0
	try:
		sensor_value = int(data['value'])
	except e:
		print("There was an error while parsing the response:", e)
	bound= compute_bounds(history_data, conf.FRAME_SIZE, conf.MUL_FACTOR)
	if not bound:
		required_data_count= conf.FRAME_SIZE-len(history_data)
		print("Not enough data to compare the Z score. Need", required_data_count,"more data points")
		history_data.append(int(data['value'])) # append the data to the previously collected data
		time.sleep(10)
		continue

	try:
		if sensor_value>bound[0] or sensor_value<bound[1]: #check for anomaly
			print("The temperature level changed suddenly. ending an sms")
			response = sms.send_sms("Someone has opened the fridge")
			print("This is the response",response)
		  res=mybolt.analogWrite(0,250) #set the buzzer high for 50 secs
		  print(res)
		  time.sleep(50)
		  res=mybolt.analogWrite(0,0)
		  print(res)
		history_data.append(sensor_value);
	except Exception as e:
		print("Error",e)
	time.sleep(10)

Polynomial Regression

JavaScript
To predict the future temperatures
setChartLibrary('google-chart');
setChartTitle('Polynomial Regression');
setChartType('predictionGraph');
setAxisName('time_stamp','temp');
mul(0.0977); // temperature(in celsius)= (100*sensor value) / 1024
plotChart('time_stamp','temp');

Temperature alert system using defined threshold

Python
Send an alert via mail when the temperature exceeds the threshold we set
import email_conf, json, time
from boltiot import Bolt,Email
maximum_limit=103
minimum_limit=0
mybolt=Bolt(email_conf.API_KEY, email_conf.DEVICE_ID)
mailer= Email(email_conf.MAILGUN_API_KEY, email_conf.SANDBOX_URL, email_conf.SENDER_EMAIL, email_conf.RECIPIENT_EMAIL)
while True:
	print("Reading the sensor value")
	response=mybolt.analogRead('A0')
	data= json.loads(response)
	print("sensor value is" + str(data['value']))
	try:
		sensor_value= int(data['value'])
		if sensor_value>maximum_limit or sensor_value<minimum_limit:
			print("Making request to mailgun to send an email")
			response= mailer.send_email("Alert","The current temperture sensor value is" + str(sensor_value))
			response_text=json.loads(response.text)
			print("Response received from Mailgun is:" + str(response_text['message']))
	except Exception as e:
		print("Error occured: below are the details")
		print(e)
	time.sleep(10)
