Introduction

Time-series shapelets are discriminative subsequences, recently found effective for time series classification (TSC). It is evident that the quality of shapelets is crucial to the accuracy of TSC. However, the majority of research has focused on building accurate models from some shapelets candidates. To determine such shapelets candidates, some existing studies are surprisingly simple. For example, there are studies that enumerate subsequences of some fixed lengths, or randomly select some subsequences as shapelets candidates. The major bulk of computation is then on building the model from the candidates, which is computationally costly. Hence, we propose a novel efficient shapelets discovery method, called BSPCOVER, to discover a set of high-quality shapelets candidates for model building.

We implemented the proposed algorithms in JAVA. A well-known benchmark of time series classification datasets, UCR Time Series Classification Archive, has been tested.
