DRSP : Dimension Reduction For Similarity Matching And Pruning Of Time Series Data Streams
Similarity matching and join of time series data streams has gained a lot of
relevance in today's world that has large streaming data. This process finds
wide scale application in the areas of location tracking, sensor networks,
object positioning and monitoring to name a few. However, as the size of the
data stream increases, the cost involved to retain all the data in order to aid
the process of similarity matching also increases. We develop a novel framework
to addresses the following objectives. Firstly, Dimension reduction is
performed in the preprocessing stage, where large stream data is segmented and
reduced into a compact representation such that it retains all the crucial
information by a technique called Multi-level Segment Means (MSM). This reduces
the space complexity associated with the storage of large time-series data
streams. Secondly, it incorporates effective Similarity Matching technique to
analyze if the new data objects are symmetric to the existing data stream. And
finally, the Pruning Technique that filters out the pseudo data object pairs
and join only the relevant pairs. The computational cost for MSM is O(l*ni) and
the cost for pruning is O(DRF*wsize*d), where DRF is the Dimension Reduction
Factor. We have performed exhaustive experimental trials to show that the
proposed framework is both efficient and competent in comparison with earlier
works.Comment: 20 pages,8 figures, 6 Table
Graph Summarization
The continuous and rapid growth of highly interconnected datasets, which are
both voluminous and complex, calls for the development of adequate processing
and analytical techniques. One method for condensing and simplifying such
datasets is graph summarization. It denotes a series of application-specific
algorithms designed to transform graphs into more compact representations while
preserving structural patterns, query answers, or specific property
distributions. As this problem is common to several areas studying graph
topologies, different approaches, such as clustering, compression, sampling, or
influence detection, have been proposed, primarily based on statistical and
optimization methods. The focus of our chapter is to pinpoint the main graph
summarization methods, but especially to focus on the most recent approaches
and novel research trends on this topic, not yet covered by previous surveys.Comment: To appear in the Encyclopedia of Big Data Technologie
SNIF TOOL - Sniffing for Patterns in Continuous Streams
Recent technological advances in sensor networks and mobile devices give rise to new challenges in processing of live streams. In particular, time-series sequence matching, namely, the similarity matching of live streams against a set of predefined pattern sequence queries, is an important technology for a broad range of domains that include monitoring the spread of hazardous waste and administering network traffic. In this thesis, I use the time critical application of monitoring of fire growth in an intelligent building as my motivating example. Various measures and algorithms have been established in the current literature for similarity of static time-series data. Matching continuous data poses the following new challenges: 1) fluctuations in stream characteristics, 2) real-time requirements of the application, 3) limited system resources, and, 4) noisy data. Thus the matching techniques proposed for static time-series are mostly not applicable for live stream matching. In this thesis, I propose a new generic framework, henceforth referred to as the n-Snippet Indices Framework (in short, SNIF), for discovering the similarity between a live stream and pattern sequences. The framework is composed of two key phases: (1.) Off-line preprocessing phase: where the pattern sequences are processed offline and stored into an approximate 2-level index structure; and (2.) On-line live stream matching phase: streaming time-series (or the live stream) is on-the-fly matched against the indexed pattern sequences. I introduce the concept of n-Snippets for numeric data as the unit for matching. The insight is to match small snippets of the live stream against prefixes of the patterns and maintain them in succession. Longer the pattern prefixes identified to be similar to the live stream, better the confirmation of the match. Thus, the live stream matching is performed in two levels of matching: bag matching for matching snippets and order checking for maintaining the lengths of the match. I propose four variations of matching algorithms that allow the user the capability to choose between the two conflicting characteristics of result accuracy versus response time. The effectiveness of SNIF to detect patterns has been thoroughly tested through extensive experimental evaluations using the continuous query engine CAPE as platform. The evaluations made use of real datasets from multiple domains, including fire monitoring, chlorine monitoring and sensor networks. Moreover, SNIF is demonstrated to be tolerant to noisy datasets
A Review on Outlier/Anomaly Detection in Time Series Data
Recent advances in technology have brought major breakthroughs in data collection, enabling a large amount of data to be gathered over time and thus generating time series. Mining this data has become an important task for researchers and practitioners in the past few years, including the detection of outliers or anomalies that may represent errors or events of interest. This review aims to provide a structured and comprehensive state-of-the-art on outlier detection techniques in the context of time series. To this end, a taxonomy is presented based on the main aspects that characterize an outlier detection technique.KK/2019-00095
