Abstract

We propose a new algorithm to cluster multiple and parallel data streams using spectral component similarity analysis, a new similarity metric. This new algorithm can effectively cluster data streams that show similar behaviour to each other but with unknown time delays. The algorithm performs auto-regressive modelling to measure the lag correlation between the data streams and uses it as the distance metric for clustering. The algorithm uses a sliding window model to continuously report the most recent clustering results and to dynamically adjust the number of clusters. Our experimental results on real and synthetic datasets show that our algorithm has better clustering quality, efficiency, and stability than other existing methods.
