N2 - This paper presents a framework for the collection, management and mining of sensordata in large cyber-physical systems. Particular emphasis has been placed on mathematicalmethods, data structures and implementations which enable the real-time solution of inverseproblems associated with the system in question. That is, given a system model, to obtainan estimate for the phenomenological cause of the sensor observation. This enables the useof causality, rather than mere correlation, when computing measures of signicance duringmachine learning and knowledge discovery in very large data sets. The model is an abstractrepresentation of a real physical system establishing the relationships between cause and eects.The pertinent behaviour of the model is captured in the form of equations, e.g., dierentialequations. The inverse solution of these model-equations, within certain constraints, permit usto establish the semantic reference between the sensor observation and its cause. Without thissemantic reference there can be no physically based knowledge discovery.Embrechts pyramid of knowledge is addressed and shown that it will not suce for futuredevelopments. The issue of information content is addressed more formally than in most datamining literature. Additionally the Epistemology for the emergent-perceptive portion of speechis presented and a prototype implementation with experimental results in data mining arepresented. A lexical symbolic analysis of sensor data is implemented
