Polar Formed Histogram of Fast Fourier Transform Feature for Time-series Classification Problems

kground and Objectives: Time series classification (TSC) means classifying the data over time and based on their behavior. TSC is one of the main machine learning tasks related to time series. Because the classification accuracy is of particular importance, we have decided to increase it in this research.Methods: In this paper, we proposed a simple method for TSC problems to achieve higher classification accuracy than other existing methods. Fast Fourier transform is a method that uses in raw time series data preprocess. In this study, we apply the fast Fourier transform (FFT) over the raw datasets. Then we use the polar form of a complex number to create a histogram. The proposed method consists of three steps: preprocessing using FFT, feature extraction by histogram computation, and decision making using a random forest classifier.Results: The presented method was tested on ۱۲ datasets of the UCR time series classification archive from different domains. Evaluation of our method was performed using k-fold cross-validation and classification accuracy. The experimental results state that our model has been achieved classification accuracy higher or comparable than related methods. Computational complexity has also been significantly reduced.Conclusion: In the latest years, the TSC problems have been increased. In this work, we proposed a simple method with extracted features from fast Fourier transforms that is efficient to gain more high accuracy.
