Early classification of time series has been extensively studied for minimizing class prediction delay in time-sensitive applications such as healthcare and finance. A primary task of an early classification approach is to classify an incomplete time series as soon as possible with some desired level of accuracy. Recent years have witnessed several approaches for early classification of time series. As most of the approaches have solved the early classification problem with different aspects, it becomes very important to make a thorough review of the existing solutions to know the current status of the area. These solutions have demonstrated reasonable performance in a wide range of applications including human activity recognition, gene expression based health diagnostic, industrial monitoring, and so on. In this paper, we present a systematic review of current literature on early classification approaches for both univariate and multivariate time series. We divide various existing approaches into four exclusive categories based on their proposed solution strategies. The four categories include prefix based, shapelet based, model based, and miscellaneous approaches. The authors also discuss the applications of early classification in many areas including industrial monitoring, intelligent transportation, and medical. Finally, we provide a quick summary of the current literature with future research directions.

Irregularly sampled time series (ISTS) data has irregular temporal intervals between observations and different sampling rates between sequences. ISTS commonly appears in healthcare, economics, and geoscience. Especially in the medical environment, t he widely used Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have abundant typical irregularly sampled medical time series (ISMTS) data. Developing deep learning methods on EHRs data is critical for personalized treatment, precise diagnosis and medical management. However, it is challenging to directly use deep learning models for ISMTS data. On the one hand, ISMTS data has the intra-series and inter-series relations. Both the local and global structures should be considered. On the other hand, methods should consider the trade-off between task accuracy and model complexity and remain generality and interpretability. So far, many existing works have tried to solve the above problems and have achieved good results. In this paper, we review these deep learning methods from the perspectives of technology and task. Under the technology-driven perspective, we summarize them into two categories - missing data-based methods and raw data-based methods. Under the task-driven perspective, we also summarize them into two categories - data imputation-oriented and downstream task-oriented. For each of them, we point out their advantages and disadvantages. Moreover, we implement some representative methods and compare them on four medical datasets with two tasks. Finally, we discuss the challenges and opportunities in this area.

For time series classification task using 1D-CNN, the selection of kernel size is critically important to ensure the model can capture the right scale salient signal from a long time-series. Most of the existing work on 1D-CNN treats the kernel size as a hyper-parameter and tries to find the proper kernel size through a grid search which is time-consuming and is inefficient. This paper theoretically analyses how kernel size impacts the performance of 1D-CNN. Considering the importance of kernel size, we propose a novel Omni-Scale 1D-CNN (OS-CNN) architecture to capture the proper kernel size during the model learning period. A specific design for kernel size configuration is developed which enables us to assemble very few kernel-size options to represent more receptive fields. The proposed OS-CNN method is evaluated using the UCR archive with 85 datasets. The experiment results demonstrate that our method is a stronger baseline in multiple performance indicators, including the critical difference diagram, counts of wins, and average accuracy. We also published the experimental source codes at GitHub (https://github.com/Wensi-Tang/OS-CNN/).
Cyber-physical system applications such as autonomous vehicles, wearable devices, and avionic systems generate a large volume of time-series data. Designers often look for tools to help classify and categorize the data. Traditional machine learning t echniques for time-series data offer several solutions to solve these problems; however, the artifacts trained by these algorithms often lack interpretability. On the other hand, temporal logics, such as Signal Temporal Logic (STL) have been successfully used in the formal methods community as specifications of time-series behaviors. In this work, we propose a new technique to automatically learn temporal logic formulae that are able to cluster and classify real-valued time-series data. Previous work on learning STL formulas from data either assumes a formula-template to be given by the user, or assumes some special fragment of STL that enables exploring the formula structure in a systematic fashion. In our technique, we relax these assumptions, and provide a way to systematically explore the space of all STL formulas. As the space of all STL formulas is very large, and contains many semantically equivalent formulas, we suggest a technique to heuristically prune the space of formulas considered. Finally, we illustrate our technique on various case studies from the automotive, transportation and healthcare domain.
Recent few-shot learning works focus on training a model with prior meta-knowledge to fast adapt to new tasks with unseen classes and samples. However, conventional time-series classification algorithms fail to tackle the few-shot scenario. Existing few-shot learning methods are proposed to tackle image or text data, and most of them are neural-based models that lack interpretability. This paper proposes an interpretable neural-based framework, namely textit{Dual Prototypical Shapelet Networks (DPSN)} for few-shot time-series classification, which not only trains a neural network-based model but also interprets the model from dual granularity: 1) global overview using representative time series samples, and 2) local highlights using discriminative shapelets. In particular, the generated dual prototypical shapelets consist of representative samples that can mostly demonstrate the overall shapes of all samples in the class and discriminative partial-length shapelets that can be used to distinguish different classes. We have derived 18 few-shot TSC datasets from public benchmark datasets and evaluated the proposed method by comparing with baselines. The DPSN framework outperforms state-of-the-art time-series classification methods, especially when training with limited amounts of data. Several case studies have been given to demonstrate the interpret ability of our model.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are a hot research topic recently. GANs have been widely studied since 2014, and a large number of algorithms have been proposed. However, there is few comprehensive study explaining the connections among differ ent GANs variants, and how they have evolved. In this paper, we attempt to provide a review on various GANs methods from the perspectives of algorithms, theory, and applications. Firstly, the motivations, mathematical representations, and structure of most GANs algorithms are introduced in details. Furthermore, GANs have been combined with other machine learning algorithms for specific applications, such as semi-supervised learning, transfer learning, and reinforcement learning. This paper compares the commonalities and differences of these GANs methods. Secondly, theoretical issues related to GANs are investigated. Thirdly, typical applications of GANs in image processing and computer vision, natural language processing, music, speech and audio, medical field, and data science are illustrated. Finally, the future open research problems for GANs are pointed out.
