About

This is for automation for data cleaning and splicing of data streams coming from a multi-sensor array. I use init.c to set up the directory structure, ls_init.c to set up ls.txt that is used to get information about the files. Then data_pre_proc.c goes through all the files placed inside data_raw, cleans it and places it in data_cleaned, then it creates subdirectories inside data_spliced for each file in data_cleaned, and outputs the spliced data to files named sensor1.txt, sensor2.txt, etc.

How to use

  • Run startup.sh with "./start.sh", this will compile the required files and create their executables
  • Run ./init to initialize the directory structure
  • Place your raw data inside data_raw
  • Run ./ls_init, this is required for the functions further used and will cause a segmentation fault if not used(because the functions will not know which files to look for)
  • Run ./proc and the data will get cleaned, spliced, and placed in appropriate directories
  • Sensor count is automatically detected and taken care of for each file
  • Use the MATLAB script graphing.m to get graphs of your data, this script will give you file-wise plots, with different subplots for each sensor, and can easily be modified to do other things, as seen in graphing_conditional.m
  • After processing, place data_raw, data_cleaned, data_spliced, graphs and ls.txt into some folder of your choice(for eg, processed_data_01), and you can process more data by following the previous steps again
  • NOTE: the format that this works for is comma-separated data with timestamps at the start, for example

  • To make it work with your data format, have your string format be:
<string1><space><string2>,<val>,<val>

where string1 and string2 don't contain any spaces, and the values also do not have any spaces between them. Keep in mind that the last value does not have a comma after it, though that can be easily changed if you know C.
