Matching sequences: Cross-spectral analysis of categorical time series
序列匹配:分类时间序列的交叉谱分析
We consider the problem of quantifying the degree to which two stationary categorical time series are coherent. The goal is to discover whether or not the sequences contain similar patterns. The problem is motivated by the problem of matching two DNA sequences. Following the ideas used in defining the spectral envelope for a qualitativevalued time series, the methods we present here focus on the problem of obtaining coherency envelopes for measuring the similarity between…
