Odyssey: An Engine Enabling The Time-Series Clustering Journey

Summary: Odyssey is a modular web engine that rigorously benchmarks 80 time‑series clustering methods across 9 classes on 128 diverse datasets. It exposes overlooked high-performing classes, challenges elastic-distance and deep‑learning claims, and finds no method significantly outperforming k‑Shape.
