What is periodicity detection?
Abstract—Periodicity mining is used for predicting trends in time series data. Discovering the rate at which the time series is periodic has always been an obstacle for fully automated periodicity mining. Existing periodicity mining algorithms assume that the periodicity rate (or simply the period) is user-specified.
What is periodicity in time series data?
A periodicity is a pattern in a time series that occurs at regular time intervals. More precisely, the time series is said cyclical, if the time intervals at which the pattern repeats itself can't be precisely defined and is not constant.
