Abstract

Periodicity search in time series is a problem that has been investigated by mathematicians in various areas, such as sta- tistics, economics, and digital signal processing. For large data- bases of time series data, scalability becomes an issue that tradi- tional techniques fail to address. In existing time series mining algorithms for detecting periodic patterns, the period length is user- specified. This is a drawback especially for datasets where no pe- riod length is known in advance. We propose an algorithm that extracts a set of candidate periods featured in a time series that satisfy a minimum confidence threshold, by utilizing the autocor- relation function and FFT as a filter. We provide some mathemati- cal background as well as experimental results.
