BlackBerry had 11 patents in digitalization during Q2 2024. BlackBerry Ltd filed a patent for a method of anomaly detection using a full batch model and clusters, where new data points are checked for anomalies and actions are taken accordingly. Another patent involves processing data for transmission from one communication device to another, specifically handling attachments by substituting the address of a copy stored externally to ensure retrievability at the receiving device.

Application: Method and system for incremental centroid clustering (Patent ID: US20240202336A1)
The patent filed by BlackBerry Ltd. describes a method for anomaly detection at a computing device. The method involves storing a full batch model for data points associated with clusters, receiving new data points, detecting anomalies when they fall outside the model, and taking actions based on the anomalies. The computing device creates the model by adding data points to clusters based on distance thresholds and updates cluster information incrementally. It can also create new clusters for data points that do not fit within existing clusters. The device can store only incremental information about each cluster and take actions such as providing alerts or autonomously controlling associated devices.
The computing device, which can be an edge device within an IoT system, includes a processor and a communications subsystem. It is configured to store the full batch model, receive new data points, detect anomalies, and take actions based on the anomalies. The device creates the model by adding data points to clusters based on distance thresholds and can create new clusters as needed. It can store incremental information about each cluster and take actions such as providing alerts or autonomously controlling associated devices. Additionally, the patent includes a computer storage medium storing instruction code for anomaly detection, which, when executed, causes the computing device to perform the anomaly detection method described.
