This paper proposes a novel approach to analyzing complex time series data by representing it as biological sequences. By converting time series signals into character sequences using an alphabetic mapping technique, researchers can leverage sophisticated sequence analysis algorithms typically used in bioinformatics. The method transforms each value within the time series into a specific character based on its range, creating a molecular sequence-type representation that enables pattern recognition and relationship discovery. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach by applying sequence classification to real-world time series signals converted into character sequences.

This paper shows us how to make complicated time series data easier to understand by turning it into something like DNA code. They do this by creating a special map that turns each number in the data into a letter from A-Z. This lets us use super powerful tools developed for studying genes and proteins on our normal data, helping us find hidden patterns and connections. It’s like having a new tool to help us make sense of complex data!
