Complexity Measures and Features for Times Series classification Baldán Lozano, Francisco Javier Benítez Sánchez, José Manuel Classification Complexity measures Time series features Time series interpretation Classification of time series is a growing problem in different disciplines due to the progressive digitalization of the world. Currently, the state-of-the-art in time series classification is dominated by The Hierarchical Vote Collective of Transformation-based Ensembles. This algorithm is composed of several classifiers of different domains distributed in five large modules. The combination of the results obtained by each module weighed based on an internal evaluation process allows this algorithm to obtain the best results in state-of-the-art. One Nearest Neighbour with Dynamic Time Warping remains the base classifier in any time series classification problem for its simplicity and good results. Despite their performance, they share a weakness, which is that they are not interpretable. In the field of time series classification, there is a tradeoff between accuracy and interpretability. In this work, we propose a set of characteristics capable of extracting information on the structure of the time series to face time series classification problems. The use of these characteristics allows the use of traditional classification algorithms in time series problems. The experimental results of our proposal show no statistically significant differences from the second and third best models of the state-of-the-art. Apart from competitive results in accuracy, our proposal is able to offer interpretable results based on the set of characteristics proposed. 2022-12-22T07:42:33Z 2022-12-22T07:42:33Z 2021-10-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Published version: Francisco J.
