MaxSDev is violated. Since our K-MaxSDev segmentation algorithm actually ensures that the violations of MaxSDev only occur on the edge of two adjacent segments, as shown in Table 4.4, turning points are either specified by the mean of the next invalid pattern or the first value of the next valid pattern. Evidently, this specification of turning points captures the locations where large prediction errors mostly tend to happen. Table 4.4 Algorithm 3: Pattern Validation and Turning Points Discovery 3) Pattern matching and interval forecasting The most important issue for pattern matching and interval forecasting is to identify the type of the given latest duration sequence. Specifically, three types of duration sequences are defined in this chapter including the type where the sequence contains internal turning points, the type where the next value of the sequence is probably a turning point and the type for the remainder of the sequences. As presented in Table 4.5 (Algorithm 4), the types of sequences are identified based on standard deviations. 56
Table 4.5 Algorithm 4: Pattern Matching and Duration Interval Forecasting For the first type of duration sequence which has a standard deviation larger than MaxSDev, it cannot be matched with any valid patterns and must contain at least one turning point. Therefore, we need to first locate the turning points and then conduct pattern matching with the remainder of the duration sequence. However, to ensure the effectiveness of the prediction, if the length of the remaining duration sequence is smaller than the minimum pattern length, the duration interval is specified with the mean of the duration sequence while its standard deviation is substituted by MaxSDev. Note that the matched pattern is defined as the valid pattern of which the statistical mean has the minimum absolute difference with that of the latest duration sequence. As for the second type, it is identified when the standard deviation of the latest duration sequence is larger than that of the matched pattern but smaller than MaxSDev. In this case, the next value of the sequence will probably be a turning point since it is on the edge of two different patterns according to our pattern recognition process. Therefore, the mean of the next value is specified with the associated turning point of its matched pattern and the standard deviation is specified with MaxSDev. For the third type of sequence where its standard deviation is smaller than its matched pattern, the next value is predicted with the statistical features of the matched patterns as a refinement to that of the latest duration 57
