abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Multivariate time series segmentation is an important problem in data mining and it has arisen in more and more practical applications in recent years. The task
of time series segmentation is to partition a time series into segments by detecting
the abrupt changes or anomalies in the time series. Multivariate time series segmentation can provide meaningful information for further data analysis, prediction and
policy decision. A time series can be considered as a piecewise continuous function,
it is natural to take its total variation norm as a prior information of this time series.
In this paper, by minimizing the negative log-likelihood function of a time series, we
propose a total variation based model for multivariate time series segmentation. An
iterative process is applied to solve the proposed model and a search combined the
dynamic programming method is designed to determine the breakpoints. The experimental results show that the proposed method is efficient for multivariate time series
segmentation and it is competitive to the existing methods for multivariate time series
segmentation.</p>},
