SMM: Leveraging Metadata for Contextually Salient Multi-Variate Motif Discovery

A common challenge in multimedia data understanding is the unsupervised discovery of recurring patterns, or motifs, in time series data. The discovery of motifs in uni-variate time series is a well studied problem and, while being a relatively new area of research, there are also several proposals f...

SMM: Leveraging Metadata for Contextually Salient Multi-Variate Motif Discovery
description A common challenge in multimedia data understanding is the unsupervised discovery of recurring patterns, or motifs, in time series data. The discovery of motifs in uni-variate time series is a well studied problem and, while being a relatively new area of research, there are also several proposals for multi-variate motif discovery. Unfortunately, motif search among multiple variates is an expensive process, as the potential number of sub-spaces in which a pattern can occur increases exponentially with the number of variates. Consequently, many multi-variate motif search algorithms make simplifying assumptions, such as searching for motifs across all variates individually, assuming that the motifs are of the same length, or that they occur on a fixed subset of variates. In this paper, we are interested in addressing a relatively broad form of multi-variate motif detection, which seeks frequently occurring patterns (of possibly differing lengths) in sub-spaces of a multi-variate time series. In particular, we aim to leverage contextual information to help select contextually salient patterns and identify the most frequent patterns among all.
