An Evolutionary Approach for Modeling Time Series
Elena Bãutu, Andrei Bãutu, Henri Luchian · 2008
Change points in time series appear due to variations in the data generation process.We consider the problem of modeling time series generated by dynamic processes, and we focus on finding the change points using a specially tailored genetic algorithm.The algorithm employs a new representation, described in detail in the paper. Suitable genetic operators are also defined and explained.The results obtained on computer generated time series provide evidence that the approach can be used for change point detection, and has good potential for time series modeling.
