Exact Indexing of Dynamic Time Warping

Summary: Novel exact indexing method for Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) that works despite DTW's non-metric nature. Guarantees no false dismissals and dramatically outperforms prior exact/approx indexing approaches on the largest time-series benchmarks to date. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
