ddtw_alignment_path

ddtw_alignment_path(x: ndarray, y: ndarray, window: float = None) → Tuple[List[Tuple[int, int]], float]

Compute the ddtw alignment path between two time series.

Parameters:

x: np.ndarray, of shape (n_channels, n_timepoints) or (n_timepoints,)

First time series.

y: np.ndarray, of shape (m_channels, m_timepoints) or (m_timepoints,)

Second time series.

window: float, default=None

The window to use for the bounding matrix. If None, no bounding matrix is used.

Returns:

List[Tuple[int, int]]

The alignment path between the two time series where each element is a tuple of the index in x and the index in y that have the best alignment according to the cost matrix.

float

The ddtw distance betweeen the two time series.

Raises:

ValueError

If x and y are not 1D, or 2D arrays. If n_timepoints or m_timepoints are less than 2.

Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> from aeon.distances import ddtw_alignment_path
>>> x = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 6]])
>>> y = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4]])
>>> ddtw_alignment_path(x, y)
