Time-series BoF (Moore-Sloan 2016 retreat)

Organizers: Brett Naul, Josh Bloom, Stéfan van der Walt

Traditional inference techniques and infrastructure tools can be illsuited to time-series data, which may be noisy, streaming, multispectral, irregularly sampled, and/or extremely large. This BoF is aimed at identifying promising approaches to time series analysis across a diverse set of use cases and finding projects of common interest for potential future collaborations.

Approach:

  • Share use cases, tooling & pain points around time series analysis and inference
  • Identify common tools & difficulties across use cases
  • Open issues discussions
  • Find potential cross-domain/cross-methodology areas for future collaboration

Areas of interest:

  • How to deal with "too much data" -- sensors generating more data than can bear sent to analysis pipeline (e.g., radio astronomy, high-energy physics)
  • Rapid/real-time inference with limited data (seismology)
  • Dealing with concept drift; online/incremental models
  • Databases/query mechanisms for time-series (e.g., InfluxDB)
  • Inference influencing outcomes influencing inference... (e.g., reinforcement learning)
  • Anomaly detection
  • Handling noisy, uncertain, irregularly sampled data

"sensors generating more data than can bear sent to analysis pipeline" -- maybe "that the analysis pipeline can bear" or "than can be consumed by the analysis pipeline" ?
