It's unclear what you are after. Advice on which mathematical approaches
will work or which software contains those mathematical approaches?
Matlab is the standard for mathematical analysis of all sorts of
phenomenon, from a mathematical perspective.

Very unclear what you are saying. Are these signals related to events in
your network? More information will help.

You might want to
'cd /usr/portage' and then pick a dir...
'cd sci-mathematics' and emerge some software who's description
you find potentially interesting....
