A package for time series classification in Weka
Weka is a powerful machine learning framework. However, it lacks of tools to handle time series data analysis.
timeSeriesClassification is a package for Weka that implements extensions specially developed for performing the classification of time series data. Those tools are the following:
- DTWDistance: a distance function based on the dynamic time warping dissimilarity measure, knows as DTW
- DTWSearch: a nearest neighbors algorithm for the classification of time series, which takes advantage of the Keogh’s lower bound technique in order to reduce the computational cost of the classification
- NumerosityReduction: a filter for numerosity reduction of time series datasets
The experimental results obtained using these extensions on several traditional time series datasets show the validity and utility of this package.
