On Efficiently Searching Trajectories and Archival Data for Historical Similarities

Summary: Efficient similarity search on histories via summaries that prune non-qualifying histories for Lp/LCSS/DTW and enable retrieval. A finer approximation with a distance-error-minimizing algorithm enables scalable search up to 17D on real and synthetic data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
