Data and knowledge management systems employ feature selection algorithms for removing irrelevant, redundant, and noisy information from the data. There are two well-known approaches to feature selection, feature ranking (FR) and feature subset selection (FSS). In this paper, we propose a new FR algorithm, termed as class-dependent density-based feature elimination (CDFE), for binary data sets. […]

Effective and Efficient Shape-Based Pattern Detection over Streaming Time Series
Existing distance measures of time series such as the euclidean distance, DTW, and EDR are inadequate in handling certain degrees of amplitude shifting and scaling variances of data items. We propose a novel distance measure of time series, Spatial Assembling Distance (SpADe), that is able to handle noisy, shifting, and scaling in both temporal and […]
