Time Series Data Mining: A Retail Application Using SAS Enterprise Miner

Modern technologies have allowed for the amassment of data at a rate never encountered before. Organizations are now able to routinely collect and process massive volumes of data. A plethora of regularly collected information can be ordered using an appropriate time interval. The data would thus be developed into a time series. With such data, analytical techniques can be employed to collect information pertaining to historical trends and seasonality. Time series data mining methodology allows users to identify commonalities between sets of time-ordered data. This technique is supported by a variety of algorithms, notably dynamic time warping (DTW). This mathematical technique supports the identification of similarities between numerous time series. The following research aims to provide a practical application of this methodology using SAS Enterprise Miner, an industry-leading software platform for business analytics. Due to the prevalence of time series data in retail settings, a realistic product sales transaction data set was analyzed. This information was provided by dunnhumbyUSA. Interpretations were drawn from output that was generated using “TS nodes” in SAS Enterprise Miner

Feature Trajectory Dynamic Time Warping for Clustering of Speech Segments

Dynamic time warping (DTW) can be used to compute the similarity between two sequences of generally differing length. We propose a modification to DTW that performs individual and independent pairwise alignment of feature trajectories. The modified technique, termed feature trajectory dynamic time warping (FTDTW), is applied as a similarity measure in the agglomerative hierarchical clustering of speech segments. Experiments using MFCC and PLP parametrisations extracted from TIMIT and from the Spoken Arabic Digit Dataset (SADD) show consistent and statistically significant improvements in the quality of the resulting clusters in terms of F-measure and normalised mutual information (NMI).Comment: 10 page

Gesture Recognition Aplication based on Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) FOR Omni-Wheel Mobile Robot

This project presents of the movement of omni-wheel robot moves in the trajectory obtained from the gesture recognition system based on Dynamic Time Warping. Single camera is used as the input of the system, which is also a reference to the movement of the omni-wheel robot. Some systems for gesture recognition have been developed using various methods and different approaches. The movement of the omni-wheel robot using the method of Dynamic Time Wrapping (DTW) which has the advantage able to calculate the distance of two data vectors with different lengths. By using this method we can measure the similarity between two sequences at different times and speeds. Dynamic Time Warping to compare the two parameters at varying times and speeds. Application of DTW widely applied in video, audio, graphics, etc. Due to data that can be changed in a linear manner so that it can be analyzed with DTW. In short can find the most suitable value by minimizing the difference between two multidimensional signals that have been compressed. DTW method is expected to gesture recognition system to work optimally, have a high enough value of accuracy and processing time is realtime

Analisis Speaker Recognition Menggunakan Metode Dynamic TIME Warping (DTW) Berbasis Matlab

Voice is one of way to communicate and express yourself. Speaker recognition is a process carried out by a device to recognize the speaker through the voice. This study designed a speaker recognition system that was able to identify speakers based on what was said by using dynamic time warping (DTW) method based in matlab. To design a speaker recognition system begins with the process of reference data and test data. Both processes have the same process, which starts with sound recording, preprocessing, and feature extraction. In this system, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method is used to extract the features. The results of the feature extraction process from the two data will be compared using the DTW method. Calculations using DTW that produce the smallest value will be determined as the output. The test results show that the system can identify the voice with the best level of recognition accuracy of 90%, and the average recognition accuracy of 80%. The results were obtained from 50 tests, carried out by 5 people consisting of 3 men and 2 women, each speaker said a predetermined wor

Finding the different patterns in buildings data using bag of words representation with clustering

The understanding of the buildings operation has become a challenging task due to the large amount of data recorded in energy efficient buildings. Still, today the experts use visual tools for analyzing the data. In order to make the task realistic, a method has been proposed in this paper to automatically detect the different patterns in buildings. The K Means clustering is used to automatically identify the ON (operational) cycles of the chiller. In the next step the ON cycles are transformed to symbolic representation by using Symbolic Aggregate Approximation (SAX) method. Then the SAX symbols are converted to bag of words representation for hierarchical clustering. Moreover, the proposed technique is applied to real life data of adsorption chiller. Additionally, the results from the proposed method and dynamic time warping (DTW) approach are also discussed and compared
