Convenient Time Series Features Extraction Package FExtract
摘要
FExtract is an R package that streamlines feature-based time series analysis by combining two established methods, Tsfeatures and Catch22, with the novel NetF method. NetF introduces a unique approach by mapping time series into complex network graphs to extract topological features, offering a fresh perspec-tive beyond traditional techniques. FExtract enables the practical usability of NetF by incorporating CSV-to-RData conversion, improves the efficiency of one of the graph mapping functions, and integrates the ability to export results for use in other programming environments. The improvement in the graph function significantly optimizes the analysis of larger datasets while maintaining the accuracy of the original method. By integrating classical and innovative approaches, FExtract provides a versatile and comprehensive solution for extracting and analyzing time series features across diverse applications.
