Fast Time Sequence Indexing for Arbitrary Lp Norms

Summary: A unified time-series index supports similarity search under every Lp norm (p=1…∞), eliminating per-distance structures. Matches prior methods for L2/L∞ and achieves up to 10× speedups for L1 on real and synthetic workloads. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
