Abstract

Subspace classification of multivariate time series (MTS) data is currently a challenging problem, due to the difficulties in defining a meaningful similarity measure for distinguishing between the series features. In this paper, a new representation model called Sequence-As-Feature (SAF) is proposed, where each MTS in the new representation is a vector of sequential attributes, each being an univariate time series, such that the common similarity measures can be readily adapted. An attribute-weighted measure is then defined using a conditional probability distribution (CPD) modeling method. Based on these, a prototype classifier is derived to classify the test MTS in a linear time complexity, with the MTS prototype optimized according to the CPD model of sequential attributes. Experimental results on MTS data sets from three real-world domains are given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed methods.
