Yet Another Time Series Model (YATSM): v0.4.0
Christopher E. Holden · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2015
The Yet Another TimeSeries Model (YATSM) algorithm is designed to monitor land surface phenomena, including land cover and land use change, using timeseries of remote sensing observations. The algorithm seeks to find distinct time periods, or time segments, within the timeseries by monitoring for disturbances. These time segments may be used to infer continuous periods of stable land cover, with breaks separating the segments representing ephemeral disturbances or permanent conversions in land cover or land use. "The Yet Another..." part of the algorithm name is an acknowledgement of the influence a previously published timeseries algorithm - the Continuous Change Detection and Classification (CCDC) (Zhu and Woodcock, 2014) algorithm. While YATSM began as an extension from CCDC, it was never intended as a 1 to 1 port of CCDC and will continue to diverge in its own direction. Please cite as: Christopher E. Holden. (2015).
