Fast Similarity Search in the Presence of Noise, Scaling, and Translation in Time-Series Databases

Summary: Proposes a time-series similarity model robust to scaling, translation, gaps, and non-aligned subsequences, via non-overlapping paired subsequences within a width-bounded envelope. Fast search techniques locate all similar sequences or subsequences in a corpus. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
